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?

20% Destroy the Fascist Donald Trump and all of MAGA, because America must never be Great Again.

80% 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.

For Immediate Release:

    Raleigh, NC     Governor Pat McCrory signed 33 bills today, including:

   • SB 473 Health Cost Transparency and Speaker and PPT Standing (Sens. Rucho and Brown) - SB 473 provides patient protections against billing for medical expenses for procedures to which the patient has not consented. The bill also states that the Speaker and President Pro Tempore, acting together on behalf of the General Assembly, have standing to intervene in any judicial proceeding challenging a North Carolina statute or provision of the constitution.

    "I encourage the General Assembly not to use this law unless it is absolutely necessary. There should be mutual understanding and cooperation among the General Assembly, the Attorney General and the Governor," said Governor Pat McCrory.

   • HB 476 Rewrite Underground Damage Prevention Act (Reps. Hager, Moffitt and Murry) - HB 476 replaces the existing underground damage prevention act and reorganizes a centralized notification center to help utilities and excavators coordinate the location of underground infrastructure. The bill requires excavators to notify the center prior to beginning a project and sets a process for architects and engineers to locate infrastructure when designing projects.

   • HB 857 Public Contracts/ Construction Methods/DB/P3 (Reps. Arp, Bryan, Moffitt and Hager) - HB 857 authorizes state and local government agencies to pursue design build and public private partnership construction contracts. It also establishes a minimum criteria for selecting these projects.

    More information on HB74 (Regulatory Reform) is in a separate press release that can be found here.

    Governor McCrory will allow House Bill 522 to become law without his signature. The governor believes the bill is unnecessary.
