Pension bills near end of session in West Virginia
Lawmakers edge toward closing this session with Gov. Manchin’s business tax cuts and pay raises but resist pension relief for teachers and municipal police and fire funds. The plan would cut corporate net income tax, phase out franchise and inventory taxes, and create a combined reporting system with an estimated $149 million annual business saving once fully implemented. The Senate may accept House changes, while backing for letting teachers move school retirement funds into a second pension plan remains uncertain.

West Virginia lawmakers weigh aircraft taxes and budget cuts
The 60 day session sees the Senate poised to back Gov. Manchin's House aircraft tax cut proposal while the budget prioritizes spending under 3.9 billion.
