Senator Jim Justice, representing West Virginia in the U.S. Senate, posted several messages on March 26, 2026, addressing topics ranging from women’s sports to legislative achievements and community engagement.

In a post at 13:59 UTC, Justice expressed support for President Biden’s stance on women’s sports. He wrote, “I applaud @POTUS for sharing my commitment to protecting women’s sports. As I coach, I have seen firsthand how committed these girls are to their sports. A biological man shouldn’t box them out. About time we restored some common sense!”

Later that day at 16:26 UTC, Justice thanked his colleagues in the Senate after the unanimous passage of legislation related to Hershel “Woody” Williams. He stated, “We can accomplish so much goodness when we reach across the aisle and have real conversations. I thank my Senate colleagues for unanimously passing my Hershel ‘Woody’ Williams National Medal of Honor Monument Location Act. Woody meant so much to the folks back home in WV!”

In another post at 23:22 UTC, Justice described meeting with constituents from McDowell County during their visit to Washington D.C., writing “It always makes for a great day when I get to meet up with West Virginians visiting DC. This group from McDowell County was wonderful company. Thankful they made the trip!”

Prior to serving in the Senate, he was governor of West Virginia with a focus on economic growth (https://www.justice.senate.gov/), and ran for federal office on a platform prioritizing job creation and infrastructure improvements (https://www.justice.senate.gov/). A lifelong resident of West Virginia who obtained both an undergraduate degree and an MBA from Marshall University (https://www.justice.senate.gov/), Justice has drawn upon his state experiences in shaping policy decisions (https://www.justice.senate.gov/) and oversees agricultural operations through Justice Family Farms (https://www.justice.senate.gov/).
