Three bills proposed in the House of Delegates would begin to address long-standing issues with water infrastructure in the southern coalfields and provide residents with access to clean drinking water. Contact your Delegate and tell them to SUPPORT HB 5525, HB 5585, and HB 5642. No West Virginian should have to live without clean water.

The House Finance Committee has originated a bill that calls for a cap and sensible guardrails on the Hope Scholarship voucher program, which is diverting public dollars from public schools, leading to school closures and staffing/program cuts. Contact your Delegate and members of the House Finance Committee and urge them to support this legislation. 

HB 4817 gives additional funding and flexibility to charter schools despite the unmet needs many of our local public schools are experiencing. The WV Legislature should be prioritizing funding for public schools and not diverting limited funds to charter schools! Submit a public comment opposing HB 4817.
