Political fallout over West Virginia labor act defeat looms
The Huntington Herald-Dispatch lambasts the Republican House minority for opposing Governor Neely’s Labor Relations Act. It argues the party must win back organized labor to have future success and labels the defeat a result of factional politics. It notes Ewing amendments aligned with the national platform, then describes the bill’s defeat by a Republican minority and allied conservative Democrats. The piece ends with Tallman resigning from the West Virginia Department of Public Safety and eyeing a Du Pont post, amid calls for a strong, nonpartisan police leadership.
