Leaders push for workers' camp reform after session end
West Virginia Chamber of Commerce urged Governor Wise and the Legislature to advance meaningful workers' compensation reforms after the 2003 session ended with a filibuster. They warned the state fund's growing deficit threatens jobs and could force employers to leave if cost controls are delayed. Wise indicated a special session might be needed later to continue work on the plan.
