THE ROWAN REPORT: Pandemic showed us need for Internet

The 2021 Session of the 85th Legislature has been like no other that I have ever experienced here in Charleston. Masks are required in The Capitol and only two rooms are large enough to hold committee meetings the House Chamber and the Government Organization Room. Between each meeting members have to be evacuated from the rooms so that they can be thoroughly sanitized. Galleries are reserved for delegates not wanting to wear masks or not wanting to remain on the floor during sessions. The West Gallery is reserved for a few members of the media. The halls are mostly empty with only a scant few scheduled visitors.
Mineral County Days promote tourism, Route 220
