The new state fiscal year started July 1, and the state legislature is on vacation for most of the month, but that doesn’t mean we have a new state budget. Thanks to big disagreements between NC House and Senate Republicans, the state is listing along on its old budget and several major decisions – most notably around teacher and state employee pay – remain on hold.

Lawmakers will return to Raleigh the week of July 28th and at that time they’ll have a long list of potential agenda items, including the budget, several gubernatorial vetoes, Hurricane Helene recovery issues and an ambitious GOP sponsored election law overhaul. Recently Newsline’s Rob Schofield sat down with politics and state government reporter Galen Bacharier to learn more.
