MANCHIN APPLAUDS COOPERATION TO BRING FORM ENERGY TO WEST VIRGINIA

Image

Form Energy’s manufacturing plant to be built in Weirton is truly a team effort made possible by bipartisan cooperation. And let me be clear, without the Inflation Reduction Act that I wrote, this announcement and the 750 jobs that come with it would not be possible.

Last week, I visited the Wood County Senior Center to inform Parkersburg-area senior citizens about the many healthcare savings the Inflation Reduction Act will bring for West Virginia seniors.


I am pleased to share with you that Beckley Sanitary Board was honored with an award for its Piney Creek Watershed Monitoring Initiative. The National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) announced winners of the 2023 National Environmental Achievement Awards (NEAA) at the Winter Conference in Sonoma, CA. The awards recognize public clean water utilities that have made outstanding contributions to environmental protection and the clean water community.

As Black History Month comes to a close, I’m proud to highlight Mr. Timothy Taylor, a Charleston entrepreneur who is retraining West Virginians to work with fiber optic and low-voltage cabling – skills that are critically needed as we expand broadband across our state.
