Republican Gov. Jim Justice on Wednesday broke with West Virginia’s GOP-majority Legislature to veto a bill that would have loosened one of the country’s strictest school vaccination policies. apnews.com/article/west-v…
So @WVGovernor fails to address childcare shortage during regular session and then rescinds telework policy late on a Friday?!? You think we have staffing issues in State Govt now?!? Just wait
Um, should we be at all concerned that the lightning made a 90* turn downward and [appear to] hit the #WVCapitol? March 15, 2024 just after 3am. #wvwx
Will you call for a veto on SB 841? That’s important to these working families, Moore!

Delegate Worrell making a point that hasn’t been made enough. Unemployment insurance benefits currently replace just over half of someone’s lost wages. No one would choose this. Half the pay, no benefits. It’s offensive when we say these folks should make do with less
Every child deserves a childhood. Urge WV lawmakers to say NO to Child Labor. Vote no on HB 5159 and HB 5162. #WVlegis oneclickpolitics.global.ssl.fastly.net/messages/edit?…
Less than 3 weeks after major layoffs in WV, House Finance Committee is poised to pass S641 cutting unemployment benefits. The bill is purportedly in response to a "problem" with long-term viability of Unemployment Trust Fund - despite reality the fund has 91 MONTHS of funding.

SB614 would kick students out of school. I keep thinking of Ron Duerring recalling when a 3rd grader brought a knife to school when he was principal. When he asked her why, she said because she was sexually assaulted the night before. He made sure she got help - not suspended.
WV Dems have a good chance right now to gain some leverage on the state ballot since these WV Republicans are abandoning their seats to run for higher office.
