Yes, Virginia passed a law requiring state prisoners to serve at least 65% of their sentences before becoming eligible for parole under certain conditions. This law is known as the "65 percent law" or "truth in sentencing law."

There is no chance that the US State of West Virginia nor that of Virginia, has any intentions of changing the past.

As an aside, and since the question is being asked, this hypothetical possibility, could never come to pass. Virginia is a much more prosperous state without the burden of West Virginia.
