I’m sick of our governor and republican lawmakers pretending that we have a surplus meanwhile shortchanging the services that we rely on. if i didn’t have childcare over the span of 8 years i would have had to sacrifice my career. make it right for our families and our workforce!

Spending this week with our delegation at the DNC has left me in awe of the many inspiring West Virginia women we have doing amazing things in their communities. Tonight, we were joined by Emily Calandrelli—a trailblazing West Virginia woman who will be taking her own inspiring story

and welcome to WV where a campaign sticker like this just days after the most recent school shooting will still earn you votes

Childcare centers are closing. Families are struggling to find childcare. Yet the Governor’s “solution” is a $240 tax cut for those families who are fortunate enough to have childcare. We need to invest in our children and their future. Not another round of tax cuts for the rich.

At Abortion, Every Day right now: In the last weeks before the election, Republicans have revived their case against mifepristone. They want to ban mailing the medication (essentially passing a back-door ban), revoke access for minors entirely & more. This is a BIG DEAL.

Miss me with the blame shifting about school consolidations. To deny that school vouchers are part of the of enrollment decline is to deny reality. But sure, that’s only part of the story.

If school choice is so brilliant and effective shouldn’t these programs stand on their own merit and not need a pledge for any and all state resources to make them succeed?

So my senator Shelley Moore Capito didn’t think that trump would pardon ALL of the Jan 6 felons nor does she believe he has the power to remove back birthright citizenship but she still wants to go along and get along and 100% support this administration… hmmm

If these "grassroots" anti-vaxx organizations cared half as much about the known carcinogens in their water, air, and soil compared to vaccinations, West Virginia would make huge strides in lowering cancer rates.

Elon Musk & the Trump administration are illegally firing federal employees. Federal workers are vital to WV's economy, and the attacks on these workers means cutting WV jobs, services, and specialized expertise that is very difficult to replace. wvpolicy.org/federal-worker…

tell that to the families who will lose healthcare and SNAP. we both know that WV won’t be able to dig ourselves out of the budgetary hole that this bill will create. this is a bill that helps families like the capitos and justices of the world, not average WV’ians.

"A hypothetical high-impact data center investment of $2 billion in Tucker Co. would yield only $4.64M in tax revenue for local entities under HB 2014 as opposed to $15.5M prior to its passage, according to an analysis published last week by the WVCBP..." wvgazettemail.com/news/energy_an…

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions. Here's what USAID told the NYT about the $10m in birth control they plan to destroy: nytimes.com/2025/09/11/hea…
