Charleston, W.Va. (WVDN) – During a recent recording of “Just Three Questions!”, WV Secretary of State Kris Warner had a conversation with Roger Hanshaw, the Speaker of the West Virginia House of Delegates and the third ranking constitutional officer in the state. Speaker Hanshaw and Secretary Warner discussed the newly established WV Small Business Growth Act and additional opportunities for business owners as a result of the 60-day legislative session.
The WV Small Business Growth Act will be rolled out later this year and provide financial support to existing businesses. Speaker Hanshaw said, “This is one of the things we’re proudest of this year…We’re expecting with great fanfare all 134 delegates and senators to be pushing out information into their local communities.”
Secretary Warner said, “This addresses a need business owners have expressed. The new funding stream will provide capital for business owners to scale their operations without interrupting the day-to-day business.”
“Sometimes there are local West Virginia homegrown businesses that just need a little help, just need a little push, and that’s the West Virginia Small Business Growth Act.” Speaker Hanshaw added.
The conversation with Speaker Hanshaw also included funding opportunities for upskilling employees and assistance for childcare providers and families. Speaker Hanshaw’s segment and other recorded episodes of “Just Three Questions!” can be found on the WVSOS YouTube channel.
