Ratepayer Rights, State Budget Bills And A Public Listening Session, At The Legislature This Week

Listen

On The Legislature This Week, we hear from Emmett Pepper, policy director for Energy Efficient West Virginia, about what the West Virginia Legislature can do to protect ratepayers against rising energy costs. We also get a look at the legislative page experience from our high school reporters.

We’ll hear the latest on the state’s budgetary process after the House of Delegates advanced an amended version of the Senate’s budget bill. And we’ll get a look at some unique bills ranging from honeybees to homeschooling and Hope Scholarship changes.

Chris Schulz is our host this week. Our theme music is by Matt Jackfert.
