The 2025 West Virginia legislative session is finally behind us and was one of the toughest in recent memory. Lawmakers ignored the real problems facing our people and instead passed bill after bill to make life harder in this state. In this issue, we unpack what happened, share what it was like to testify during the chaos and look ahead to something worth celebrating: our 50th Anniversary on May 17!
In this issue:Â
- MAGA Agenda, Microgrids, and Missed Opportunities: Most agree this was the worst session ever, with priorities completely out of step with the state’s real needs.
- MICA May Day Workers’ Rally: May 1 in Morgantown!
- No Hearings, No Shame: Public shut out while lawmakers push toxic deregulation.
- Call Capito. Call Justice. No Cuts to Medicaid. No Excuses: They said no one calls. Let’s flood the lines.
- Tell the Governor: Veto Anti-DEI and Anti-LGBTQ+ Bills
- West Virginians for Energy Freedom: LIHEAP assistance threatened. Take action!
- A Milestone Moment: 50 Years of Citizen Action! Join the celebration on May 17 in Charleston.
