On this episode of The Legislature Today, in the Senate Friday, lawmakers approved a bill that would allow for broad vaccine exemptions. Briana Heaney has the story.
In the House, a few bills are working their way through committees that aim to adjust state election laws. Also, in a committee hearing that lasted into the night Thursday, delegates grappled with health care regulation laws and heard differing opinions from more than 10 presenters. Emily Rice has more.
We also have our weekly feature with West Virginia high school students, Malia Saar and Emma Browning, who look at the makeup of the West Virginia Legislature and state government.
Finally, WVPB reporters Jack Walker and Briana Heaney are joined by Duncan Slade, deputy managing editor for the nonprofit newsroom Mountain State Spotlight, for a roundtable to discuss the biggest news of the week.
