The North Carolina General Assembly has failed in its constitutional duty to pass a state budget. As of November, our communities, institutions, and families are experiencing the real-world consequences of that failure.

On Wednesday, members of the NC Senate Democratic Caucus will host a public hearing at the General Assembly to spotlight the real-world consequences of the legislature’s ongoing failure to pass a state budget. The hearing, titled “The Real-World Impact of Failing to Pass a State Budget,” will take place from 1:00 to 3:00 PM in the NCGA Auditorium and is open to the press and public.
