The Governor’s message was rooted in a stark disparity: while the federal government has committed roughly $7 billion to North Carolina since the 2024 storm, that figure represents only 12% of the estimated $60 billion in total damages.

Stevens has practiced law for over 30 years and has been a member of the House of Representatives since 2009– she’s currently serving on the House Election Law Committee.

“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. I will continue to fight on behalf of every North Carolinian to lower costs and grow the economy,” said Stein.

North Carolina Democrats on the state and federal levels are pushing a range of grants, initiatives, and legislation to support the state’s ongoing Hurricane Helene recovery efforts.

Jackson’s office warned that losing the funding would force schools to shut down programs and could lead to layoffs in the middle of the school year. “Our kids deserve better,” Jackson said in a statement. “A surprise cut of nearly $50 million from rural schools, with virtually no notice and no allegation of misuse, is unlawful and harmful.”
As of January 1st, enhanced tax credits, a resource that provided financial assistance to individuals by lowering premiums for healthcare coverage in the Affordable Care Act marketplace, have expired. The consequences of this are that many North Carolinians will see their premiums spike significantly this year, lose coverage, or remain uninsured.
