The 2013 Transportation Day at the West Virginia Capitol will be held on the second day of the 60-day legislative session, and participants will have an opportunity to attend a joint session of the House and Senate transportation committees being held that day. “We have an opportunity on February 14 to educate and emphasize the importance of our transportation system and our industry to our state lawmakers,” WVBT Board Member Bob Orders, Orders Construction Company, said. “As employers, we seldom visibly band together in numbers.” CAWV members are urged to attend the event. “Here’s a chance to show up and be counted. There is no reason why every member shouldn’t have someone at Transportation Day at the Legislature on February 14,” he said. “We need a strong show of support from our CAWV members. That will send a clear message: WVBT Transportation Day is about JOBS! Our JOBS! Better JOBS!” The CAWV will provide safety vests and talking points to make our group – and our message - highly visible to lawmakers. Parking is available at the Laidley Street lot and shuttle service will be provided to the Capitol. We need as many people as possible from your company to attend. A registration for is attached to this week’s Newsletter.

Help Small Businesses Win Big Act of 2020
May 1, 2020 Honorable Jim Justice Governor’s Office 1900 Kanawha Blvd. E. Charleston, WV 25305 Governor Justice: The undersigned members of the West Virginia Senate write today to urge you to call an extraordinary session of the 84th Legislature, as soon as practicable, to enact the “Help Small Business Win Big Act of 2020” a small business emergency assistance grant program that will provide short-term cash flow support to the state’s small businesses and increase overall business confidence during the unprecedented economic disruption caused by the Coronavirus (COVID- 19) outbreak. On March 16, 2020, you initiated efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 by declaring a State of Emergency in West Virginia. Subsequent containment measures were announced, including the closure of all restaurants and bars, gyms and recreation facilities, barbershops, hair salons, and nail salons. These restrictions culminated with the issuance of a Stay at Home Order for West Virginians on March 23, 2020. While these measures are consistent with similar measures being taken nationally that are expected to limit the public’s exposure to COVID-19, there is already and will continue to be an adverse economic impact on our state’s economy, particularly small businesses. Small enterprises (businesses and non-profits) (SBEs), and residents employed by these businesses, are facing unprecedented economic challenges as businesses have difficulties meeting payroll obligations and supporting basic operating expenses. These challenges are only expected to increase during a prolonged period of restricted operation or closing. Without a source of immediate relief, small businesses are being forced to furlough or lay off employees.
