West Virginia lawmakers spar over privatizing workers' comp
In Charleston last week, House Judiciary Chair Carrie Webster led a clash with Insurance Commissioner Jane Cline over West Virginia's privatization of workers' compensation. The Joint Judiciary Committee vetoed a draft bill for a new oversight panel, while lawmakers pressed for legislative checks on rule changes from the BrickStreet era. Cline argued existing processes suffice and the public already has input, as Webster warned about accountability gaps in a rapidly evolving system with 200 stakeholders alerted on proposed rules.
