West Virginia has been right wing territory for so long that some West Virginians have forgotten that they have a choice. Even the Democrats in West Virginia have a distinctively right wing slant. Yet, a new progressive groundswell is spreading across West Virginia, as the people themselves work to take back government out of the hands of their corrupt leadership.

With the economy going south, and corruption and waste running rampant through the Republicans in Washington D.C., paying attention to West Virginia's place in the Congress is more important than ever. For West Virginia progressives, the links below lead to information and activist resources to help in the struggle to take back the Congress in 2006 and promote progressive ideals across the United States.
