Summary
West Virginia Senate Bill 623 of 2026 would have established economic incentives for data centers to locate in West Virginia; its bill page lists new Code article 11-6N sections among the code affected. The official bill page shows its last action as referral to the Senate Economic Development Committee and no later action. The Legislature's 2026 calendar set the sixtieth day, 14 March 2026, for adjournment at midnight, and the House recorded that it adjourned sine die that night, so the bill did not become law.
What this does not establish
- The end date is the adjournment of the 2026 regular session documented by the Legislature's calendar and public-information blog; the bill page itself shows only the committee referral.
- The bill text was read only through its official summary and the code sections listed on the bill page.
Unresolved questions
None recorded.
Relationships
Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. Repeal links identify the repeal instrument and the measure it ends. A later implementation or related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
- No related action is recorded.
