Holt's Program Receives Right of Way in West Virginia
The senate judiciary committee favored probation and parole reforms and garnishment limits, while the house passed six departmental measures. The two interim bills would cap garnishment at 20 percent of wages, and companion measures would modernize parole and probation and set indeterminate felony sentences. The house, in under two hours, passed 12 bills with limited opposition, mostly from Republicans who attacked the gross sales tax and proposed salary cuts to offset exemptions.
