West Virginia Special Session Adjourns
While the West Virginia Senate approved three bills during the special legislative session, the House is leaving one measure for the December interim meetings.
The Senate adjourned the special session sine die after quickly passing versions of all three bills without substantial debates.
Lawmakers approved legislation to limit DUI expungement procedures to be in compliance with federal regulations.
Additionally, legislation approved limits spending authority for debt service payments for the second and third rounds of the general obligation bonds.
However, the House placed Senate Bill 2001 on second reading, which extends tax credits for tourism development projects through December 2025.
The House adjourned until asked to come back.
