Do you guys seeing Tomblin vetoing this?
Not sure. He’s in a very uncomfortable place, no matter which way he jumps.
I wonder how many of those bussed-in protestors are from out-of-state? I think the answer is almost all.
A large percentage of WV residents are extremely poor and ill-educated. Mining was the only decent paying job for the HS (or less) drop out and now it’s gone.
West Virginia is a powder keg with desperation as the lit fuse. Remember, this is “bitter clinger” central.
Well, yes. Unions are the twisted spine of the democratic party, they don’t oppose anything as hard as they do right to work laws. Do any dems support it?
The good news is West VA doesn’t require a supermajoirty to override most vetoes, just a majority. Still, only 1 Tomblin veto was overridden in 2015.
If the rats get to fill that State Senate vacancy though....
Tomblin has stated he is opposed to RTW. The pending court decision by State Supreme Court is crucial to passage. Or failure...
