3 checks for “Jim Justice”
PolitiFact says: Justice signed a gasoline tax increase in 2017, about six years before he signed a taxpayer protection pledge. He couldn’t have broken a pledge he hadn’t signed yet.
PolitiFact says: Numerically, West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice is right. However, focusing on the absolute value ignores that consumer debt is shrinking compared with the broader U.S. economy.
PolitiFact says: In 2023, West Virginia’s unemployment rate fell as low as 3.3% for three months. Before Justice’s tenure, the state’s record low was 4.4%. How much credit Justice should get is less clear.
