H. R. 31--"Urging the citizens of West Virginia to buy West Virginia products to help in the economic growth of West Virginia."
Whereas, The State of West Virginia can benefit immensely if its citizens would purchase West Virginia products; and
Whereas, A greater multiplier effect takes place in West Virginia's economy when goods and services are bought in state instead of out of state; and
Whereas, Such a change in purchasing behavior would keep money in the State and greatly boost West Virginia's economy, increase profits of West Virginia businesses, and increase wages for West Virginia's workers; and
Whereas, Other benefits of buying in-state products would include the creation of secondary jobs, increases in West Virginia tax revenues, decreases in total unemployment and unemployment insurance costs; therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Delegates:
That the House of Delegates of the West Virginia Legislature hereby urges the citizens of West Virginia to buy West Virginia products to help in the economic growth of West Virginia.
