Carolina Forward Report: NC politics last week

[InfiniteStardust]

1. This really needs its own post/thread, on this forum and the General Discussion forum...

but I don't have enough posts to start a new thread.

NC Gov. Josh Stein has vetoed 14 bills since his inauguration this past January.

FOUR NC Democratic reps cross the aisle to vote with the republicans to override Gov. Josh Stein's 8 vetoes, with 6 of Stein's vetoes pending being overridden. Several times, their votes were the deciding votes to pass the override of his vetoes.

The FOUR democratic reps are:

Nasif Majeed, D-Mecklenburg, @nasifclt (Instagram page)
Carla Cunningham, D-Mecklenburg, @carladcunninghamncrep
Cecil Brockman, D-Guilford, @cecil.brockman
Shelly Willingham, D-Edgecombe

One veto override, Senate Bill 266, repeals emissions goal for Duke Energy, and allows utility to increase rates for construction costs.

The people of NC, and especially Mecklenburg County's districts that are represented by Majeed and Cunningham, need to know this information, and keep hearing it. These four should be primaried - NC doesn't need any more fake Dems in office - we already lived through that nightmare!!
