More than 1,000 West Virginians with disabilities — mostly children — are on a waitlist for help and services as the state doesn’t have the capacity to serve them right now, reports @amelianews.bsky.social.

For all the farmers who thought voting for Trump was a good idea.

NEW: ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the Trump administration’s cuts to an aid program.

Republicans: Biden was trying to buy votes with student loan forgiveness. Also Republicans: We need taxpayers to bail out farmers who vote for us since Trump put them out of business.

Looking at what the Trump cuts are doing to West Virginians

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” isn’t just about tax cuts it quietly guts federal protections and reshapes entire agencies. Here’s what’s buried inside:

How to Take Medicaid from Millions of Americans, in Less Than 72 Hours

The WVDP called on the State Board of Education to stand strong for the rule of law and the health of West Virginia’s children by rejecting Morrisey’s Executive Order No. 7-25, which seeks to create a so-called religious exemption to West Virginia’s public school immunization requirements.

What the WV Legislature Did(n't) Do For You This Session: Shut Down Debate

The Boss

The WV Legislature wants to overturn the will of our people. In 2022, West Virginia voters rejected a constitutional amendment that would have given the Legislature authority to review and approve the state board of education’s rules and policies.

The Coal Workers Health Surveillance Program is largely unstaffed, attorneys for West Virginia coal miners are asking a federal judge to issue a preliminary injunction to keep the program running and grant miners a protection against developing dangerous black lung disease.

“Congress requires these programs to be there for our miners. You can’t just shut them down. You can’t just ignore the mandates of Congress,” said attorney Sam Petsonk. Sam will be one of our speakers at our next meeting in Lewisburg. Please see below. www.greenbrierdemwomen.org/events

* The government has reversed its plans to cancel Head Start * There's a case hitting the courts to protect our miners by keeping the NIOSH office and its programs open. * The WV Attorney General is not fighting to keep heating assistance available for WV.

More than one-quarter of all West Virginians rely on Social Security to get by. Older West Virginians receive checks. Orphans receive payments. So do West Virginians with disabilities. President Donald Trump is slashing Social Security Administration staff in ways that put the program at risk.

Gov. Patrick Morrisey and Attorney General J.B. McCuskey didn’t sign on to the suit. “The governor believes most matters can be solved through collaboration and communication rather than lawsuits." The governor sued the Biden administration many times as WV Attorney General.

West Virginia friends, let's get this signed! Share share share...

AmeriCorps is a “substantial part” of the work a West Virginia housing construction organization does in Kanawha and Putnam counties. Last year, volunteers from AmeriCorps’ National Civilian Community Corps contributed 2,880 man hours to work with Habitat for Humanity of Kanawha and Putnam...

When I was growing up in Morgantown, West Virginia, I remember very well when that new building went up at the end of Willowdale Road, near the West Virginia University Medical Center and not too far from my friend Doug’s house...

NEW: Trump is dismantling Social Security. Here's what’s at risk for West Virginians.

Here's a great review of our fashion show.

The Trump administration is asking Congress to eliminate funding for Head Start. West Virginia’s Head Start programs are solely reliant on federal funding and received $83 million in 2024. Sen. Jim Justice, Rep. Carol Miller, and Rep. Riley Moore, did not return comments for this story.

The reduction in services for coal miners comes as a surge of black lung disease is hitting the workforce. It also hits as implementation of a federal rule that would limit miners’ exposure to dangerous silica dust for the first time ever has been delayed.

$1 billion in USDA cuts the Trump administration announced in March have put local farms on the verge of bankruptcy. Those cuts severed the connections between schools, food banks, and local growers. In Monroe and Greenbrier counties, about 900 farms grow food and livestock across 134,000 acres.

“Despite today’s notification, I am grateful to the Trump Administration for their strong support for Southern West Virginia’s recovery following the February floods,” Morrisey said in a statement. We know you’re not a native West Virginian, governor, but please stand up for your adopted state.
