Special Legislative Session Delayed
WEST VIRGINIA....
After being asked by legislative leaders, Governor Joe Manchin has delayed the special legislative session on education reform until July 19th. The legislative group believes that, by working during the June interims, their work on all of the bills can be completed by June 11th. They say delaying the restart of the special session until July 19th will allow all lawmakers and the general public to review the bills before lawmakers vote. July 19th will be in conjunction with the legislature's July interim committee meetings.
