Greear: “You can run, but you can’t hide”


Charleston, WV – “Today I participated in the West Virginia Business Summit at The Greenbrier.  I was invited to participate in the Attorney General forum to share my views and platform on the current litigious business environment that exists in our state. I felt it important to speak to the business community about my ideas and blueprint for protecting consumer rights while creating a business-friendly environment which will drive economic development and job growth here at home. 

Also invited to speak was my opponent and sitting Attorney General, Darrell McGraw, who opted not to show up. He must not feel it important enough to address these issues or work toward achieving a consumer and business friendly environment. Or perhaps McGraw did not want to expose himself publicly to scrutiny for his litigious, unethical, money-wasting abuses while in public office. 

The people of West Virginia deserve the truth. They deserve answers. They deserve a public forum. They deserve transparency. They deserve a proven leader and a positive change. And when I’m elected West Virginia State Attorney General, that’s what they’ll get. 

As for McGraw, he can run, but he can’t hide. He’s a no show that must go.”
