West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey is embarking on a two-day listening tour throughout Southern West Virginia. The tour aims to address residents’ concerns about the quality of drinking water in the region.
The announcement of the tour came on a Tuesday morning, with Marshall University President Brad Smith joining Morrisey in Huntington, West Virginia. This area has experienced notable concerns regarding its water quality.
The listening tour will span four counties and is part of the governor’s efforts to gather firsthand accounts from citizens about existing water issues. Despite the limited notice provided, this initiative reflects a step towards addressing local environmental concerns.
“Beautiful clean water. Four counties. Two days. Hardly any notice.”
These words capture the essence of Morrisey’s commitment to engaging with affected communities quickly and directly. The governor’s outreach underscores the importance of clean drinking water and his administration’s dedication to listening to the voices of West Virginians.
