Episode Details

The North Carolina Supreme Court has declined to rehear the long-running Leandro education funding case, effectively closing the door on another round of legal arguments in the decades-old dispute. Meanwhile, applications for $221 million in USDA Hurricane Helene relief funding have been extended through June 12 to give more farmers and landowners time to apply. Senate Republicans are also advancing a proposed right-to-work constitutional amendment, reigniting debate over labor policy in the state. In financial education news, the State Treasurer is rolling out new internships and student clubs aimed at boosting financial literacy. Lawmakers are also moving forward with a K-12 funding formula study and an “education wallet” pilot program through the Senate.
