U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin has endorsed a West Virginia mayor in the Democratic primary race for his seat representing deep-red West Virginia. Manchin described Wheeling Mayor Glenn Elliott as a man with the “determination, the vigor and vitality” to work in the U.S. Senate. He praised Elliott’s record of creating jobs, lowering the crime rate and revitalizing his city's downtown. Manchin's decision last year not to run for reelection severely hampered Democratic hopes of holding on to the coal country seat. To win the Democratic nomination May 14, Elliott must edge out two Democratic opponents, likely taking on either Republican Gov. Jim Justice or U.S. Rep. Alex Mooney.

A federal appeals court has overturned a West Virginia transgender sports ban, finding that the law violates Title IX, the federal civil rights law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in schools. The 2-1 ruling Tuesday from the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals blocks a West Virginia law banning transgender girls from playing on girls’ sports teams. The court said the law cannot lawfully be applied to a 13-year-old girl who has been taking puberty-blocking medication and publicly identified as a girl since she was in the third grade. The American Civil Liberties Union, its West Virginia chapter and LGBTQ interest group Lambda Legal filed the lawsuit in 2021.
