Made a stop by Coopers rock today to take in the beauty of West Virginia. Our mountains, rivers and beauty make me proud to be a West Virginian and proud to be in this race fighting for my home. Everyone there was a tourist and they were in love with the scenic wonders of WV.

As temps drop to the upper teens and beds at Bartlett House fill up, and no emergency warming shelter available, I'm raising funds for cold weather gear for our homeless neighbors. Please consider donating if you can: Venmo/CA @ hueydotnewton As always, receipts will be posted.

This bill has nothing to do with biological sex. It is about social control. This Republican legislative majority showed it doesn’t give a damn about women and children when it came to child marriage, spousal rape, and forced birth. Regardless of how they want to define

Jim Justice has been extremely critical of the Biden administration’s energy initiatives but doesn’t even have a five-year energy plan in place for WV, which is a statutory requirement. That’s because his only plan is to keep pouring taxpayer $ into a dying coal industry to
