Description:

On this West Virginia Morning, we hear from House Speaker Roger Hanshaw, R-Clay, who outlines his goals for the 2026 state Legislative session. This excerpt comes to us from our weekly TV/radio simulcast The Legislature Today. Watch or listen to new episodes on Fridays at 6 p.m.

Also, if you’re newly pregnant and haven’t been able to afford health insurance, there’s a good chance you qualify for Medicaid in West Virginia. The government insurance program has a special application process for those who are pregnant. We bring you the latest in a new series from the Appalachia + Mid-South Newsroom called “HealthQ.” Cara Anthony and Blake Farmer are approachable guides to an unapproachable health system.
