January 6 Was an Assault on Democracy β€” and We Must Never Forget. It was an insurrection meant to overturn a free and fair election and stop the peaceful transfer of power.

Five years later, the truth still matters.

Gov. Morrisey is hiding a taxpayer-funded report showing how Trump’s β€œOne Big Beautiful Bill” would devastate West Virginia.

Nearly 50% of WV’s budget comes from federal funds.
Health care, SNAP, and core services are on the chopping block.

Trump ignored the health care crisis facing West Virginians and doubled down on false claims about drug prices, gas, and jobs.

West Virginians deserve clarity. If these brave men and women were allegedly deployed to protect the public from violent crime, why were so many of them directed to perform landscaping, trash removal, and beautification work β€” tasks normally handled by the National Park Service or city workers?”

Chair Mike Pushkin: β€œOur National Guard members represent the best of West Virginia. They go where they are sent, without complaint, and they serve with honor. That is why the loss of one of our Guard members in D.C. is so painful for our entire state.
