Show Notes

House Democrats in West Virginia propose suspending the state gas tax to alleviate soaring fuel costs, using Februarys average prices as a baseline. The plan involves monthly checks for the rest of the year, funded by the Rainy Day Fund. Despite past failures due to road fund ties, Hornbuckle argues the war-induced surge warrants this emergency measure. Meanwhile, the House Freedom Caucus suggests a similar plan, but bipartisan cooperation remains uncertain. The focus is on providing immediate relief to West Virginians at the pump.
