On this West Virginia Morning, it has been a week since the bill creating the state’s new Office of Entrepreneurship was signed into law – with an official opening date of July 1. Assistant News Director Maria Young caught up with Secretary of State Kris Warner, to find out what the new office can do to help would-be new business owners turn their hopes and dreams into reality. 

Also, West Virginia has just racked up a top national tourism award. Gov. Patrick Morrisey called it part of the state’s comeback story. And, high school athletes interested in transferring schools will have to do it as freshmen and sophomores to retain their eligibility.
