The Senate President and House Speaker join us for a conversation about some of the top issues this session, and we take a closer look at medical marijuana with a special report from Senior Statehouse Reporter Dave Mistich.
Both political parties want to fix a stalled medical marijuana program. But House Democrats are also pushing for the legalization of marijuana's recreational use.
Senate President Mitch Carmichael, R-Jackson, and House Speaker Roger Hanshaw, R-Clay, join host Suzanne Higgins on set to discuss the session so far. Here are highlights from the interview:
- Medical marijuana versus recreational marijuana
- Repealing the Business Inventory Tax
- Poverty in Southern West Virginia
- Economic Development
- Access to Community and Technical College and Workforce Training
