With two special legislative sessions in quick succession, Gov. Jim Justice already sees another one ahead.

Justice today said another special session will be necessary to allocate the $677 million the state has received from the American Rescue Plan Act. He didn’t describe a timetable.

“Now we’ll move on to handling the stimulus dollars, American Rescue Plan, and we’ll dial in to things like broadband and things like that that are high on the priority list with me,” Justice said today.
