Senator Jim Justice, representing West Virginia, shared a series of updates on his social media account in early January 2026. His posts addressed legislative responsibilities, new agricultural safety legislation, and developments in state innovation partnerships.
On January 7, 2026, Senator Justice emphasized the importance of focusing on senatorial duties while expressing support for former President Donald Trump: “As Senators, it’s our job to move the ball forward and help our constituents. @realDonaldTrump has shown time and again that he knows how to deliver for the American people. Let him keep at it while we focus on doing what we were sent here to do.”
Later that day, he announced his involvement in new farm safety legislation: “Proud to join my colleagues in introducing the Roll-Over Prevention & Safety Act. I’ve been farming for years, and I know how dangerous the work can be. This bill is just good sense because we ought to be doing everything we can to protect family farmers.” The Roll-Over Prevention & Safety Act aims to address risks faced by agricultural workers by promoting enhanced safety measures.
On January 8, 2026, Senator Justice highlighted a partnership between West Virginia University Athletics and BioPrecision: “This is incredible news for West Virginia! I applaud @WVUAthletics and @WVU_GBE on their partnership with BioPrecision. This is exactly the kind of innovation that keeps our state moving forward.” Such collaborations are seen as part of ongoing efforts to foster economic growth and technological advancement within West Virginia.
