WV Legislature Passes Tough Bills on Drunk Driving, Public Safety
The 2026 West Virginia legislative session concluded with over 300 bills, including measures on public safety, childrens rights, and healthcare. Notable bills include Bayleas Law, doubling prison time for drunk driving fatalities, and Jessica Huffmans Law, mandating insurance coverage for cooling caps for chemo patients. Foster children gained new rights, such as speaking in court and accessing virtual learning. Parents in child abuse cases must now pass drug tests for reunification. Public safety measures include ending quick bail for violent felony arrests and a new domestic violence act. However, some bills, like Raylees Law and guardian caps for young football players, failed to pass. Eighteen to twenty-year-olds can now carry firearms openly but still need permits for concealed carry.
