CHARLESTON, W.Va. — New liabilities totaling up to $125 million for Sen. Jim Justice, R-W.Va., and millions more in assets have been indicated in financial disclosure reports recently filed by members of West Virginia’s congressional delegation.
The federally required annual financial disclosure reports show wealth among West Virginia’s four congressional delegates far beyond that of most West Virginians, with Justice, a coal magnate whose family business empire has been dogged by unpaid obligations totaling millions of dollars, holding the greatest amounts of liabilities and assets.
Justice, 74, reported liabilities incurred in 2024 ranging from $80 million to $125 million, comprising most of the $85.8 million to $151.7 million in overall liabilities he reported. Members of Congress typically report financial figures in ranges.
