Thousands of coal miners from the Southeast including dozens from Southwest Virginia are in Washington, D.C. for a march.
The United Mine Workers of America are staging the protest to convince federal lawmakers to pass a bill that will insure health benefits for retirees remain in place.
The bill has been a contentious point amongst GOP members. The union contends the end of those benefits is not possible after legislation passed by President Harry Truman in 1946 that guarantees lifetime care.
Coal companies have cut the health insurance of many retirees, both union and non union, because of massive losses in the global coal market that some in the industry blame on EPA over-regulation of the industry.

THE PLANNERS DREAM GOES WRONG
Letting loose the lunatics wasn't the greatest of ideas
Giving them plans and money to squander
Should have been the worst of our fears
The dream life luxury living was a pleasant number 10 whim
But somewhere down the line of production
They left out human beings
They were gonna build communities
It was going to be pie in the sky
But the piss stench hallways and broken down lifts
Say the planners dream went wrong
If people were made to live in boxes
God would have given them string
To tie around their selves at bed time
And stop their dreams falling through the ceiling
And the public school boy computers
Keep spewing out our future
The house in the country designs the 14th floor
Old Mrs. Smith don't get out much more
Coitus interrupts 'cause of next doors rows
Your washing gets nicked when the lights go out
Baby's scream in the nightmare throng
