CHARLESTON, WV – Gov. Jim Justice and West Virginia State Treasurer John Perdue held a joint press conference today, announcing that Treasurer Perdue’s office is transferring an additional $20 million to the state’s General Revenue Fund for Fiscal Year 2020.
“What I love is the fact that this is a great example of two people, across the aisle from one another, really working together as West Virginians first and foremost,” Gov. Justice said. “Treasurer Perdue has done a heck of a job and he’s a good man. We should all be proud of all the work he’s done and today is just the latest example.”
“Thanks to a combination of conservative money management, efficient office practices, good interest rates, and successful legal settlements, I am pleased to announce my office will move a total of $20 million to the state’s General Revenue Fund to help with the current fiscal year budget,” Treasurer Perdue said. “I am excited to be in a position to provide a boost to the General Revenue Fund mid-fiscal year, and I am hopeful it will be used to support some of our state’s most imminent needs.” |
