Public hearings on PEIA are ahead in Logan and Pineville

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Two public hearings in southern West Virginia are coming up this week for the PEIA Task Force.

The group looking at the Public Employees Insurance Agency will hear from the public in Pineville and Logan.

Both meetings will be at 6:30 p.m. Thursday.

Members of the task force will visit Pineville Middle School  and Logan High School.

These meetings are part of 21 public outreach meetings being held across the state, with the goal of allowing West Virginians to voice their experiences with the Public Employees Insurance Agency and suggest ways to improve it.

The public outreach subcommittee will relay the feedback received at these meetings to the larger task force, which Gov. Jim Justice established to find a long-term solution to the issues facing PEIA.

Those who wish to submit feedback online can do so at peiataskforce.wv.gov. Those who wish to receive updates on social media can follow the WV PEIA Task Force Facebook page and @WVPEIATaskForce Twitter account.
