On this week's episode, we take a look at the proposed repeal of the business inventory tax, rainy day funds, and one delegate's selfless organ donation.
In segment 1, Republican Senator Eric Tarr shares his experience of running the Senate Finance Committee while committee chair Craig Blair is recovering, and tells us why he believes the proposed repeal of the business and inventory tax would benefit the state.
In segment 2, Democratic Senate Minority Leader Roman Prezioso talks about why he thinks a repeal of the business and inventory tax should proceed with caution, and shares his opinion on the development of another rainy day fund.
In segment 3, Seth DiStefano, Policy Outreach Director with the Center on Budget and Policy joins us in number-crunching after the annual West Virginia Budget Breakfast and comments on the recent State of the State Address, including where he thinks the governor should invest money instead of establishing a rainy day fund.
And finally, in segment 4, Delegate Sean Hornbuckle reflects on receiving a standing ovation upon his return to the House floor after donating a kidney to his sister, walks us through his thought process leading up to the donation, and, most importantly, gives us an update on his sister's health after transplant surgery.
