Summary

West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey introduced the “The Riley Gaines Act” in his recent State of the State address.

Beth Parlato from Independent Women's Voice gives details. Also, WV Delegate Jim Butler (R-Mason) gives an update on bills he's working on this legislative session.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tom-roten-show--5987430/support.
