U.S. Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), members of the Senate Appropriations Committee, today announced several grants to support multiple fire departments across the state. Funding is provided by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).\r\nOur firefighters protect and serve our communities every day. This funding will help multiple fire departments across the state receive the resources needed to do their jobs and take care of their fellow West Virginians. I am glad to see this funding support our fire departments and thank our first responders for their hard, selfless work, Senator Manchin said.\r\nThese funds will equip the state's firefighters with the resources they need as emergency first responders, Senator Capito said. Our firefighters put themselves in harm's way to protect West Virginians, and it's imperative that we provide them the tools to do that safely and efficiently. I have great respect for the crucial work these men and women do in our communities, and I'm pleased that we've secured this funding to keep them properly equipped and, most importantly, safe.\r\nIndividual awards listed below: \r\n \r\nCitizens Fire Company Inc., Charles Town - $182,832.38\r\nFrametown Volunteer Fire Department - $51,809.52\r\nFountain Volunteer Fire Department, Keyser - $751,363.63\r\nMason Volunteer Fire Department - $38,000\r\nCity of Bluefield - $155,449.52\r\nCity of Williamson - $154,650.47\r\nNew Martinsville Fire Department - $38,552.38\r\nPetersburg Volunteer Fire Company - $6,895.23\r\nRoute 34 Volunteer Fire Department - $49,550.47\r\nElizabeth Volunteer Fire Department - $107,809.52\r\nWest Liberty Volunteer Fire Department - $94,660\r\nChapmanville Volunteer Fire Department - $501,275\r\nCity of Wheeling - $723,797.70\r\nCumberland Valley Volunteer Firemen's Association - $514,657.14\r\n \n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\n\t  \n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t \n\t\t\n\t\t\tPrint\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tEmail\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tTweet\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t \n\t\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n    \n\t\n\t\n    \n    \n    \n    \t\n    \t\n\t    \t  \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \tNext Article\n\t\t    \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \tPrevious Article", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.manchin.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/manchin-capito-announce-more-than-27-million-to-support-west-virginia-firefighters-"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8391048759222031, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
