Now that I've given it some more thought, I think the Space Academy should be in Coalwood, #WestVirginia. It has lots of room and the darkest skies east of the Mississippi. Plus only a slightly used rocket range.
The $145M in new state investment from today’s announcement will help unlock hundreds of millions of additional water infrastructure monies.
This will put West Virginia on pace to secure more than $1B in total projects within Governor Morrisey’s first term.
I'm hearing reports from our friends at @NSSF that a proud W.V. business, Kent Cartridge Company, is being unfairly denied payment processing services simply because it is an ammunition manufacturing company. That doesn't stand in West Virginia. I'm looking into the situation now. Make no mistake: we will protect West Virginia's God given right to bear arms.

Congressman David McKinley was an exceptional human being.
He chaired the West Virginia Republican Party, served in the WV House of Delegates, and Congress. David believed in me very early on as I entered politics. I'm grateful for that.
I pray for peace for his wife Mary, his children, and his grandchildren as they mourn his passing.

Alcon, which manufactures eye care and medical products, announced Thursday an $81 million investment in its Huntington facility that is expected to create at least 75 high-tech jobs. Construction is already underway on the expansion, which company and state officials say will offer long-term, high-paying employment opportunities, with an average salary exceeding $80,000 annually. “Today’s announcement is significant because it shows that companies who have been with us through difficult times are continuing to grow,” West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey said. “Once you join West Virginia, you’re part of the family, and Alcon is an important part of ours.” https://t.co/Uraz1PiRsd

Governor Patrick Morrisey today announced that Google, one of the world’s most innovative tech companies, has purchased land in Putnam County and received approval for a multibillion-dollar High Impact Development Project. This marks an important step in West Virginia’s efforts to attract major investment, strengthen infrastructure, and compete for the jobs of the future.
“Google’s decision to come into West Virginia is a strong signal that our state is competing and winning for the jobs and industries of the future,” said Governor Patrick Morrisey. “This is exactly the kind of opportunity we are working to bring here - one that creates jobs, strengthens infrastructure, and positions West Virginia for long-term growth.”
