On this West Virginia Morning, addressing homelessness is a growing challenge throughout West Virginia. Huntington, the state’s second largest city, is no exception. Randy Yohe discussed the problems and solutions with Huntington mayor-elect Patrick Farrell, who listed tackling homelessness as a key component of his campaign platform.
And we look at the state’s coal industry, including lagging use at power plants, a new black lung rule and a pollution lawsuit.
