2025 LEGISLATIVE
UPDATE
A key component of the Education Alliance’s mission is to foster dialogue between policy makers and stakeholders on the issues effecting public education. The Education Alliance believes that public education is strongest when input from all stakeholders is valued and partners feel welcomed into the process. Our students and our state deserve an active and engaged public. To support this goal throughout the 2025 Legislative Session, we will focus exclusively on education-related bills that are actively moving through the legislative process and are under formal consideration by the legislature and will update this site each Friday.
Completed Legislation
?Governor Patrick Morrisey characterized the conclusion of the West Virginia Legislature’s regular session as a “big finish” and expressed satisfaction that nearly all of his agenda items were passed.
During the 60-day session, lawmakers passed 247 bills—150 originating from the House of Delegates and 97 from the Senate—marking the fewest bills enacted in the past five years. This total is somewhat lower than the 280 bills passed in the previous year. ?
