House Bill 4235 aims to amend and reenact section 64-6-1 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, to authorize the West Virginia State Police to establish a legislative rule concerning the West Virginia State Police Member Grievance Procedure. This bill specifically references a legislative rule that was filed in the State Register on July 23, 2025, and subsequently modified to address concerns raised by the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee before being refiled on September 24, 2025.
The bill's primary purpose is to formalize the authority of the West Virginia State Police to implement this grievance procedure, ensuring that members of the police force have a structured process for addressing grievances. The text indicates that this section is new, and therefore, no deletions or existing legal language are being altered.
