I've got one word for you: Solidarity. If Republicans force another bill through the General Assembly to block such ordinances, the Governor needs to Veto that nonsense and Democrats from both houses need to uphold that Veto. And any others he chooses to deploy.
Marc embodied North Carolina’s spirit, and he served his state with courage and compassion. His leadership in the #ncga is unparalleled. My prayers go out to his family, particularly his daughters. #ncpolhttps://t.co/AKjOFl3QXq
He was also a consensus-builder, something Phil Berger has never even tried to be. I would say, "he will be missed," but we've been missing him for some time now already.
growing up i thought @CherieBerryNC was some amazingly smart person that managed to be Labor Comish for decades but today @theobserver and @MSNBC have proven that she’s just an old idiot #NCCovid#ncpol
The Board of Elections should never have allowed that elevator picture in the first place. She didn't have to campaign hard during election season, because her smiling face was etched into everybody's memory,
I wish her congratulations also. But unless she can exert some pressure on Phil Berger to pull his head out of his ass and work with the Governor (and the NC House), this won't even leave a smudge on the glass ceiling.
The internet is full of breathless accusations that Gov. Cooper’s daughter got married in a huge event over the weekend. It’s not true. It was never true. There was no wedding, big or small. Can we all go back to focusing on slowing the deadly virus that’s circulating? #ncpol
These constant attacks on the Governor (and his family) are beyond tiresome. Where were those hypocrites when Dan Forest and Donald Trump went around the state holding maskless superspreader events? Ignoring real danger while creating fictitious events to complain about is one (big) reason why the virus is raging across our state. Ignorance is lethal.
By a unanimous and bipartisan vote, H.R. 1964 has passed the House! When enacted, the Lumbee Tribe will be a sovereign entity under federal law and have access to federal funding and services they need and deserve. I look forward to swift passage in the Senate. pic.twitter.com/9MyXRw4BRB
Maybe it will work this time, but I'm not confident Mitch McConnell will take the time away from packing the courts with Trump judges to do something Trump promised.
