flag West Virginia lawmakers failed to pass Raylee’s Law, which would have restricted homeschooling during abuse investigations, sparking criticism over child safety.

flag West Virginia lawmakers failed to pass Raylee’s Law, a bill aimed at halting homeschooling for children when a parent is under child abuse or neglect investigation, during the final hours of the 2026 legislative session. flag The measure, named after 8-year-old Raylee Browning who died in 2018 after being removed from school and subjected to abuse, was blocked by procedural delays and amendments. flag Lawmakers and child safety advocates condemned the decision as a moral failure, arguing the bill would not restrict legitimate homeschooling but prevent abusers from exploiting the system. flag Critics say the delay reflects a prioritization of political tactics over protecting vulnerable children.
