CHARLESTON, WV — Gov. Jim Justice announced ([link removed]) today $1,093,000.00 million in non-federal match funds to Congressionally Directed Spending, enhancing the state’s critical infrastructure and addressing community needs.

"These investments demonstrate our dedication to crucial improvements in the state's infrastructure, and I am proud that we are able to provide this support," said Gov. Justice. "These matches are not only a boost to the state's economic growth but also enhance the quality of life for our citizens. It's a clear signal of our unwavering commitment to the well-being and prosperity of our residents."
