Senator Jim Justice, U.S. Senator from West Virginia, recently highlighted state achievements and local contributions through a series of posts on his social media account.

On March 18, 2026, Justice praised a former basketball standout and current mentor in the state’s sports community: “Kevin Pittsnogle was a big-time player during @MarchMadnessMBB for @WVUhoops! Now he’s stepping up in an even bigger way and helping mold the next generation of all-star players in our state. Keep it going, Kevin!”

Later that day, Justice turned his attention to agriculture, emphasizing its significance to West Virginia: “Agriculture is the engine that never stops. This week, we celebrate our family farms and the industry that is absolutely the backbone of West Virginia and our country. God bless our farmers for the hard work they do every single day.”

On March 19, 2026, he addressed infrastructure improvements made under his leadership: “We put real dollars behind our roads through Roads to Prosperity, made major investments in our secondary roads, provided a road maintenance equipment fleet. Now we are seeing the payoff plain as day.”

Justice has been recognized for championing youth programs and constituent engagement through his office (official website). Before serving in the Senate, he was governor of West Virginia with a focus on economic growth (official website). As senator, he continues to promote community development and economic vitality while overseeing Justice Family Farms (official website).
