Summary
The North Carolina House passed a controversial bill allocating $227 million for Hurricane Helene relief while including provisions to reduce powers of the incoming Democratic governor and attorney general.
Critics, including Democrats, called it a “power grab,” citing changes like stripping the governor’s control over the State Board of Elections and limiting the attorney general’s ability to challenge state laws or advocate for utility customers.
Republicans defended the bill as necessary, but some GOP lawmakers opposed it.
The bill now heads to the Senate and may face a gubernatorial veto.
the Democratic party at fault that the Republican party while they still had a veto proof majority
Dems rolled over to gerrymandering decades ago. The reason NC has a statewide Dem in office and a supermajority GOP legislature stems from the Bush Era redistricting that stacked the state legislature in the GOP’s favor.
Dems had multiple opportunities to fix gerrymandering at the federal level and flubbed it every time.
Almost like they don’t really want to win at all. They just want you to donate
Yup, everything evil republicans do is actually democrats fault. That’s a totally cool and not at all moronic position.

No one party can do it alone
