“Distribution transformers are absolutely critical components of our nation’s power grid and this project is a great opportunity to position our state as a global leader in their production while reemploying hardworking West Virginians who lost their jobs earlier this year.

I met with EQT's Board of Directors to celebrate this exciting time for American energy independence. The recent commissioning of the Mountain Valley Pipeline is essential to ensuring our nation's energy security and providing affordable, reliable natural gas. I applaud EQT for showing the entire industry how to produce energy responsibly and invest in the energy technology of tomorrow, including hydrogen.

Danny, from Morgan County, contacted my office for assistance with his claim for compensation a year after his surgery. As a result of an inquiry from my office to the Department of Veterans Affairs, the VA acknowledged that his temporary vision lost significantly affected his daily life and his claim was approved.
