Everyone across the state is feeling the effect of the Iran War in raising drastically the cost of gas. Relief at the pump is needed and the WV Legislature is aware of it. John Doyle describes two proposals, both aimed at providing some relief. One supported by Democrats calls for a suspension of the tax, but replacing the lost revenue from another source, so that needed work on road improvements won't be stalled. The Republican plan calls for a simple suspension of the tax, which John Doyle argues would lead to more potholes going unfixed.
