In the shadow of the political assassination of Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning USA, a stain now exists upon our nation's collective conscious, a condition that must be excised, or our nation will not function properly as one of a self-governed people. Understanding these long standing truths: What would you suggest as a quick, and, or proper corrective measure?

22.22% Destroy the Fascist Donald Trump and all of MAGA, because America must never be Great Again.

77.78% Our self-governed people, and their properly restored institutions, under President Trump, must discover the root causes to properly correct, and save our Constitutional Republic.

0% I thought we had to shut down Free Speech we don't like to save our "democracy," so I am totally confused now.

Press Release:

RALEIGH: Institute for Women's Policy Research (IWPR) today released fact sheets on the economic status of women in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. To download North Carolina's fact sheet, visit IWPR's interactive Status of Women in the States website at statusofwomendata.org.

Statement from Secretary Machelle Sanders on the research:

"Women in North Carolina have made considerable advances in recent years, but still face inequities that often prevent them from reaching their full potential. Since the 2004 Status of Women in the States report was published, the gender gap in North Carolina has narrowed and a higher percentage of women have bachelor's degrees, yet, a larger share of women live in poverty.

North Carolina has risen from the worst third in the nation to the middle third for both women's employment and earnings, and poverty and opportunity.

The fact sheet released today is a preview of more extensive data with the full report on "The Status of Women in North Carolina - Employment & Earnings" to be released in May. That report will include policy recommendations to help address areas of need in North Carolina."
