On this West Virginia Week, we’ll look at how much money from West Virginia’s tobacco settlement money goes to smoking prevention and cessation… We’ll talk about a program to help seniors facing food insecurity in rural West Virginia. And we’ll delve into the plan to increase premiums and health care costs for workers and retirees covered by the state’s public employees insurance agency.
Maria Young is our host this week. Our theme music is by Matt Jackfert.
