Durante el Mes de la Historia de la Mujer, mujeres latinas de todo Carolina del Norte se reunieron el jueves por la mañana frente a la Asamblea General estatal para llamar la atención sobre las consecuencias reales de recientes decisiones de política federal y recortes presupuestarios que están afectando a las familias trabajadoras.

“North Carolinians have already paid billions in unlawful tariffs – our farmers, our manufacturers, and our communities can’t bear more,” Jackson said in a press release. “I’m taking the federal government to court because they broke the law again, they harmed North Carolinians, and I can prove it.”

About 600,000 children in our state rely on federal food assistance programs such as SNAP, or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

The grants include $24 million for mitigation projects and $16 million for volunteer rebuilding efforts, in order to help the region with long-term recovery efforts and help communities there better withstand future natural disasters.

For many North Carolinians, the most common forms of identification won’t qualify. Even the Real ID driver’s licenses that residents have spent years obtaining wouldn’t work because North Carolina licenses don’t list citizenship status.

“Whatley has already profited from policy decisions he championed, eroding what little trust people already have in Washington politicians,” Cooper said. “I believe candidates must earn the trust of North Carolinians.”

“We look forward to continuing the collaborative effort needed to make sure everyone has access to affordable, high-quality, patient-centered health care while reducing the burden on rural health providers,” said NCDHHS Secretary Dev Sangvai.

North Carolina Governor Josh Stein announced his opposition to the rate hikes, saying, “Duke Energy’s proposed rate hike is simply too high and comes as the company is also retreating on more affordable clean energy. At a time when families are struggling to make ends meet, we should be doing everything we can to make life more affordable, not less.”

In the 2023-2024 school year, there was a whopping difference of $3,360 per child in spending when looking at the 10 highest-spending counties compared to the 10 lowest-spending counties, according to The Public School Forum of North Carolina’s 2026 Local School Finance Study.

Regardless of Whatley’s acceptance or denial of the “recovery czar” label, Trump handed him power over the recovery efforts, and in August, Smoky Mountain News reported that residents of Western North Carolina said Whatley had “rarely, if ever” visited the area.

Since ACA tax credits expired at the beginning of the year, North Carolina has seen a 22% drop in enrollment in the healthcare marketplace, and premiums have increased by a whopping 114%.

“When people in crisis do not get help in time, the consequences can be tragic,” Gov. Stein stated during the order’s announcement. The order points to a number of high-profile cases where lives were lost at the hands of individuals with complicated mental health histories.

La Cámara de Representantes aprobó la Ley SAVE America, un proyecto de reforma electoral que impondría nuevos requisitos para registrarse y votar.
