McKinley Joins Americans for Prosperity West Virginia for Tele-Town Hall on Tax Reform

A big thank you to Americans for Prosperity - West Virginia for inviting me to participate in a tele-town hall on Thursday to discuss the positive impact the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is having on the Mountain State. We had almost 10,000 First District residents join us on the call! Thank you to everyone for your questions and positive feedback.

McKinley Honored for His Successful Work to Protect Historic Preservation Tax Credit During Tax Reform Debate

On Tuesday, I was honored as a Champion of the Historic Preservation Tax Credit during this year’s National Historic Preservation Advocacy Week. The Historic Preservation Tax Credit is a critical tool to repurpose historic buildings in our communities, create new jobs and generate new sources of tax revenue. States across the country have been actively increasing their historic preservation credits, so it made no sense when the House proposed doing away with the federal credit.

We relentlessly advocated with House leadership to include the Historic Preservation Tax Credit in the tax reform bill, and worked to educate other Members on the benefit it brings to their districts. This was a big victory for rural communities, and will directly aid the revitalization of Main Streets nationwide.

McKinley Gives One-Minute Speech for National Public Schools Week

This week was National Public Schools Week, and we should all take a minute to thank our dedicated teachers. On Thursday, I was able to honor Cristina Stout, a 4th Grade teacher at Leading Creek Elementary in Gilmer County. Ms. Stout is known for her compassion for her students. From buying winter coats for students whose families can't afford them, to the entire year that she gave up her lunch break so one of her students with sensory issues could eat in her classroom and avoid the over-stimulating cafeteria; Ms. Stout is a role model we should all look up to.

To Ms. Stout, and teachers everywhere, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all you do everyday.

House Passes the STOP School Violence Act

On Wednesday, the House passed the STOP School Violence Act. This bill would give more money for security in our nation’s schools, provide more training to school officials and law enforcement to respond to mental health issues, and develop anonymous reporting systems for threats. I was proud to support this effort.
