CHARLESTON, W.Va. — The West Virginia Senate agreed 33-0 Thursday to the House of Delegates’ amendments to the free community college tuition bill, sending the legislation to the governor for his signature or veto.
Sen. Robert Plymale, D-Wayne, was the only senator absent for Thursday’s vote. Senate President Mitch Carmichael, R-Jackson, was the bill’s most vocal supporter.
“There’s a reason why it’s Senate Bill 1,” said Senate Finance Committee Chairman Craig Blair, R-Berkeley. “Mr. President, under your leadership, we’re now crossing the finish line.”
