Southern WVians waiting for a big-time jobs announcement...

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious.

Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal. https://t.co/72wxaVLzVT

School closures at this alarming rate are not inevitable. They are a policy + budget choice. We found that all 14 schools approved for closure this year could be kept open for $28 million. Lawmakers budgeted more than that this year to park in a fund for possible future tax cuts.

Buttigieg: If everything was going just fine in this country, we wouldn’t be here. All of that is what led to all of this which means we cannot just be aiming to go back. Everything in our economy and political structure needs to be reconsidered.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Buttigieg: We didn't know it, but we've all been trusting our lives to the restraint of whoever the president might be. And now we have a president who is completely unrestrained. And so the only answer to that is a functioning Congress.

It turns out we do not have a functioning Congress. The House of Representatives is not representative. One of the most important organs of our democracy is not democratic.

They say, "Oh, no. We're not manipulating the map to disempower black people. We're manipulating the map to disempower Democrats who happen to be black people.”

So, the time has come to make it impossible to manipulate the map for any reason and just have fair maps.

Every child deserves access to quality education. But for many in WV, this is becoming difficult.

Since 2011, ~140 public schools have closed. Our new fact sheet details how the FY 2026 revenue surplus can be utilized to prevent public school closures: https://t.co/xeckL1sHNH

Journalist Michael Edison Hayden has spent years tracking extremism in America.

His new book, “Strange People on the Hill,” follows what happened when a far-right group moved its headquarters to a small town in rural West Virginia.

Amna Nawaz (@iamamnanawaz) spoke with Hayden about his book and the sharp divisions in American politics for our “Settle In” podcast.

A new report from the ACLU-WV and @WilliamKyleVass fact checked numerous statements made by state officials about a winter immigration crackdown in West Virginia; they found 75% of immigrants arrested during the 15-day operation had no criminal record. https://t.co/5xCyEY1M1a

[West Virginia Center on Budget and Policy @WVCBP]

What we found is devastating:
- At least 344 people died behind bars over six years
- One in four had not been convicted of a crime & were awaiting trial
- From 2009 to 2019, West Virginia’s jail death rate was the highest in the nation, and in 2025, it was 70% higher

Named in honor of Quantez Burks, a Raleigh County man beaten to death by Southern Regional Jail staff in 2022, the Quantez Burks Report documents what the state will not: the lives lost behind bars in West Virginia.

West Virginia suffered 40 workplace fatalities in 2024.

“It’s a capacity issue,” Josh Sword, West Virginia AFL-CIO President, said. “There are fewer inspectors than there have ever been throughout the agency, and that makes workplaces less safe.”
