SB 572 West Virginia Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Prohibiting spending authority for money used by board or commission that retains labor position

SB 572 prohibits county boards and commissions from spending money if they continue to include a labor representative position. Starting July 1, 2025, any requirement for a labor representative on these bodies is eliminated, and boards must replace such positions with appointments from non-labor-affiliated individuals. The bill mandates that spending authority for any affected board or commission is blocked until they comply with this change. This directly impacts county-level boards and commissions currently requiring labor representation under state law.
