On this West Virginia Week, Gov. Patrick Morrisey’s new administration is falling in line with President Donald Trump’s immigration policies. We also learn about grassroots organizers keeping homeless people safe in the cold, and we have an interview with a Mountain State Spotlight reporter who broke an investigation this week about mismanaged foster care placement and inadequate mental health support for children in the state.

Caelan Bailey is our host this week. Our theme music is by Matt Jackfert.

West Virginia Week is a web-only podcast that explores the week’s biggest news in the Mountain State. It’s produced with help from Bill Lynch, Briana Heaney, Caelan Bailey, Chris Schulz, Curtis Tate, Emily Rice, Eric Douglas, Jack Walker, Maria Young and Randy Yohe.
