West Virginia Unemployment Fund Faces Tax and Benefit Clashes
A new task force formed by Gov. Joe Manchin discusses securing West Virginia’s jobless fund amid a recession. Proposals include indexing the employer base to wages, limiting benefits, and tightening appeals. Labor favors wage-based base growth. business voices oppose tax hikes and favor benefit curbs. The panel notes the fund’s $249 million balance and cites a 2005 audit warning of insolvency risk during recessions. The group aims to present a draft to the governor early next year.
