The resolution urges the Governor of West Virginia and the state's federal representatives to take action to prevent job losses among federal employees in the state, which currently number over 17,000. It highlights the disproportionate impact that federal job cuts would have on West Virginia's economy, particularly given its small population and low workforce participation. The resolution points to recent job losses in Parkersburg, where 200 to 250 workers were laid off due to actions by the Department of Government Efficiency, and warns that further layoffs could severely affect local communities, small businesses, and the demand for social services.

The House of Delegates emphasizes the importance of preserving high-paying federal jobs for the economic stability of West Virginia and calls on the Governor and congressional representatives to actively oppose any job eliminations. It criticizes the rationale behind these job cuts, suggesting they are more about facilitating tax cuts for billionaires than addressing issues of fraud, waste, and abuse. The resolution concludes with a directive for the Clerk of the House to send copies of the resolution to the Governor and all federally elected representatives from West Virginia.
