Statement: WVDP Chairwoman on House Dems Press Conference

(Charleston, WV) — West Virginia Democratic Party Chairwoman Belinda Biafore released the following statement on House Democrats asking Governor Justice and GOP Leadership to cancel chaotic special session: 

“House Democrats are looking out for West Virginia taxpayers while Justice and Carmichael are looking out for themselves. Justice said it himself, these special sessions are wasteful. Republicans are using them as payback to push their damaging agenda against our students and teachers. It’s pure chaos. The only result is wasteful spending on the backs of West Virginians. We echo Minority Leader Delegate Miley and fellow House Democrats by saying Justice and leadership needs to cancel the chaotic special session and come to Charleston in January when real work can be done.”
