Session ends sans Flood Resiliency Trust Fund allocation | L

The West Virginia Legislature's special session ended Tuesday without providing an allocation for the state's Flood Resiliency Trust Fund created last year. Gov. Jim Justice had previously called for the fund left empty by last year's law creating it to be supplied with $50 million by the Legislature but left the matter off his list of legislative items for lawmakers to tackle during the special session that ended Tuesday.
