On this West Virginia Morning, we hear from Gov. Patrick Morrisey offering thoughts on his legislative agenda, a discussion from The Legislature Today about the future of microgrids and why counties aren’t enthusiastic about bringing them in.
We also heard a story by Justin Hicks from Louisville Public Media as part of the Appalachia + Mid-South Newsroom looking at how President Donald Trump’s tariffs will affect the steel industry including several firms in West Virginia.
