On this West Virginia Morning, with a final budget now approved by both the House and Senate and headed to Gov. Patrick Morrisey for a signature, West Virginia budget watchers say there are looming expenses that haven’t been taken into consideration. We listen to an excerpt from the latest episode of The Legislature Today, where we spoke with Kelly Allen, executive director of the West Virginia Center on Budget and Policy.
Also, more Americans than ever have access to a kind of savings account that lets them set aside pre-tax money for medical expenses. But this option takes a little effort to set up and navigate. As part of the Appalachia + Mid-South Newsroom, Blake Farmer and Cara Anthony from our HealthQ series explain how it works.
