The main purpose of the Support Our Miners Act is to improve the benefits provided to coal miners who suffer from black lung disease. This legislation aims to ensure that these miners and their families receive adequate financial support for healthcare and living expenses, which has not kept pace with inflation since the original benefits were established. Key provisions of the Act include significant changes to the benefit calculation for miners. It establishes a new monthly benefit rate starting in 2026, which is set at ,252.50.
