West Virginia Legislature faces budget clash and stalled reforms
Lawmakers and the governor clash over a 1.623 billion budget proposal and a 1.562 billion revised plan. The ensuing discord leads to cuts in education, libraries, highways, and state programs, with no clear consensus on economic and health policy. The prenatal bill gains attention as indicative of session confusion, expanding Medicaid for pregnant women and infants with federal funds, while two tourism and park bills aid Mercer County and Camp Creek State Forest.
