April 3, 2025


Since the Legislature began its session in February, hundreds of West Virginians have lost their jobs in Morgantown, Fairmont, Parkersburg, and Barbour County, among others - due to Republican policies at the federal level.

At this press conference, House Democrats took stock of the legislature’s missed opportunities and wasted time with fewer than ten days left in session.

WHEN: Thursday, April 3 at 2:00 PM

WHERE: State Capitol, Room 252
