Full video transcript included below:
Merry Christmas, West Virginia!
Christmas came a little early this year for our West Virginia miners.
I’m so glad we were finally able to secure both pension and health care benefits for our hard working coal miners.
This was a long and hard fight, and it would not have been possible without the dedication and heart our miners displayed throughout this process.
I thank them for their hope, their patience, and their tireless efforts to fight this until the very end.
It’s been a year of growth in our state, from broadband to economic development.
And, I’m hopeful we can continue that progress in 2020.
During the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, please join me in celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
Please keep our troops overseas and their families in your prayers, especially during this season.
Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays! And, God bless you!
I’m excited for all we’ll accomplish in the new year!
