I was proud to lead the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Appalachian Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub office! West Virginia will receive a nearly $1 billion investment from U.S. Department of Energy to build the foundation of a nationwide clean hydrogen network that is projected to create over 21,000 jobs. This marks an exciting new chapter for West Virginia's energy economy. As our nation strives for energy security, West Virginia will once again answer the call with the establishment of ARCH2, continuing our legacy as America’s energy powerhouse.

With the help of my staff, I was honored to lend my support for the groundbreaking celebration of the City of Weirton's water treatment plant upgrades. 

Ray from Parkersburg contacted my office for assistance with his military records. He fought in World War II for which he received several distinguished recognitions, but did not receive his Bronze Star. After attempting to correct the error years ago, his request was rejected. As a result of my inquiry with the U.S. Department of the Army, Ray’s application was granted and he was awarded his Bronze Star Medal.
