WV lawmakers deserve credit for OPEB fix

Posted: Updated:

No one is more critical of our elected leaders – specifically our state Legislature – than I am.

However, I also think it's important to give credit where credit is due.

Their swift and decisive action this session in regards to our OPEB debt is a great example of everyone getting on the same page and working for the good of the people.

Rather than play politics and pander to the special interests, they addressed a monumental challenge with direction, diligence and compromise.

We can only hope this kind of leadership becomes the rule, not the exception.
