Pence was due to arrive at the West Virginia National Guard’s 130th Airlift Wing base at Charleston’s Yeager Airport after 12 p.m. Saturday ahead of a 1 p.m. “listening session” in Putnam County with small business owners.
The site for that was Foster Supply in Scott Depot.
It is not a public event. Participants have been invited to attend.
Linda McMahon, administrator for the U.S. Small Business Administration, was scheduled to accompany the Vice President.
Proud to join the @VP in supporting our small businesses! #VPinWV https://t.co/idxl8VIpeu
