On this West Virginia Morning, we hear about plans for the end of the 2025 regular legislative session and a special celebration outside the capitol. It is time for children and families to enjoy the inaugural Rhododendron Roll for Easter on Saturday. Gov. Patrick Morrisey and the first lady Denise will attend — along with the Easter Bunny.

Our Song of the Week comes from The MC Taylor Goldsmith Show, which combines the breezy California folk-rock of two Mountain Stage alumni: Taylor Goldsmith and MC Taylor. The duo performed a mix of songs from both of their catalogs, including our Song of the Week, “House Parties,” from the album O Brother.

Patrick Morrisey’s top legislative priorities this year, and House Bill 2014 is the vehicle to bring more of them to the state.
