flag West Virginia’s House approves a $5.463 billion budget for 2027, including pay raises and infrastructure funds, while rejecting income tax cuts.

flag The West Virginia House Finance Committee approved HB 4027, the fiscal year 2027 general revenue budget, setting it at $5.463 billion—slightly below the governor’s proposal but higher than the Senate’s version. flag The budget includes a $30.5 million unappropriated cushion, restores higher education funding, and provides a 3% pay raise for public employees, including teachers and State Police. flag It allocates $150 million to roads and $30 million to water and sewer projects from surplus funds. flag Notably, the House rejected the governor’s requested personal income tax cuts, maintaining fiscal restraint. flag The bill now moves to the full House for consideration, with negotiations expected before final passage.
