.@Register_Herald The effect of eliminating funding going to the Highway Department has the equivalency of just reducing the Department of Highway’s budget for the year. This bill will give a little bit more money to fill that huge void.

The #WestVirginia Legislature has taken a bold stand in support of educational choice for students. Thank you @ruckerforWV and Chairman Joe Ellington for your leadership in passing the first private educational choice option in the state. https://t.co/rgsVqOu9fq

“This is one of a number of constitutional topics requiring voters to ratify. I think additional oversight may allow the Legislature to learn opportunities for improvement. Improving education is at the top of our goals.”

There is strong momentum in #WestVirginia to create the state's first private education choice program. Students will no longer have limited education options based solely upon where they live. Thanks, @WVSenatePres & @Higginbotham4WV, for your work to help students & families.

🚨.@heralddispatch WV Senate passed SB 368

I have been championing this bill for 2 years, as this issue has been a high priory for me.

Abandoned and dilapidated buildings are dangerous. Local governments must be empowered to handle them appropriately.
