Senator Chris Rose, a state legislator from West Virginia, has used his social media platform to publicly endorse a slate of conservative candidates for the West Virginia Senate. In a series of posts on May 7 and May 8, Rose emphasized his support for what he described as an “America First” agenda.

On May 8, 2026, Rose posted: “West Virginians, I’m proud to endorse our full West Virginia/America First slate of conservative warriors for the WV Senate who are battling the political establishment! These patriots will put our values, our jobs, and our families FIRST. We gained a slim majority in 2024, but https://t.co/S1WZKmRix4”

Two earlier posts by Rose were made on May 7. The first was published at 15:12 UTC (https://t.co/X1fdT2Bhh2), followed by another at 16:10 UTC (https://t.co/4mE3vkpYIQ). Both included links but no accompanying text in the provided data.

Rose’s statements come after Republicans secured a narrow majority in the West Virginia Senate during the 2024 elections. This shift has intensified efforts among party members to consolidate their influence and promote policies aligned with their stated priorities.

The endorsement highlights ongoing divisions between more traditional political figures and those aligned with “America First” rhetoric within both state and national Republican politics.
