Gov. Morrisey’s Listening Tour on Water Concerns in Southern West Virginia

West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey is embarking on a two-day listening tour across Southern West Virginia. This initiative aims to gather local residents’ concerns about drinking water. The tour will cover four counties over this brief period.

The announcement came on Tuesday morning during an event in Huntington, West Virginia. Attending alongside Gov. Morrisey was Marshall University President Brad Smith. Huntington is a region that has faced challenges with water quality, making this tour particularly relevant to residents.

Despite the short notice for the tour, the governor intends to hear firsthand from the communities about their experiences and issues related to water quality. This tour reflects a direct approach to understanding and addressing local environmental concerns.
