HB 2080 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Prohibit the use of school resources in election advocacy efforts and prohibit school employees from political activity during their work hours or on behalf of the school administration

HB 2080 bars public schools in West Virginia from using school resources - like facilities, staff time, or materials - for election-related activities. It also prohibits school employees from engaging in political activities during work hours or while representing the school administration. The bill specifically prevents staff from advocating for candidates, distributing campaign materials, or participating in political events using school time or equipment. This directly affects school employees and students, as it restricts political involvement during school operations.
