New: West Virginia's fireworks tax, created by lawmakers in 2016, brought in millions of $ for veterans and was supposed to help build a Beckley VA Hospital. But, the project is still stalled because federal match money hasn't been released under Trump.

Good reporting here from @BaileeTucker_TV — are we having a clothing voucher program for low income kids or ?? After Gov. Morrisey said he may have to cut funding for the program, the voucher didn’t start today as planned. State isn’t answering questions. https://t.co/RWpGN7kAat

Paul Skenes is an awesome human in case anyone was wondering.

He was driving by the Ingomar Franklin Park Little League baseball fields last night and saw the lights on and just pulled on in.

He was there over 2 hours signing, taking pictures and playing catch with the kids.

- More than 273,000 West Virginians participate in SNAP.

Nearly 20 years ago, West Virginia set out to revitalize its economy by "unleashing capitalism"—cutting corporate taxes, slashing social services, and hamstringing unions.

West Virginia and the UAE have something in common – both are known for their fossil fuels. But a West Virginia native who made his career as an energy reporter believes the Mountain State can learn from the UAE’s clean energy revolution.
