Is this an admission that Trump/Republican policies aren’t working? Where has the NCGA republican majority been all summer, while we’ve all faced affordability issues and pain at the pump? #oddtiming #octobersurprise #fallfoliage

Paul "Skip" Stam, the former Republican Majority Leader of the NC House, is officially coming out AGAINST this year's proposed state constitutional amendment to cap the income tax rate.

He points out that the amendment will hurt North Carolina's credit rating, encourage more borrowing, and likely do little to prevent a future legislature that wanted to spend more.

"I will vote NO on November 3, 2026."

@WhatleyNC says polling about his race against @RoyCooperNC is inaccurate & NC's U.S. Senate race is tighter than public polling suggests. He might have a point as this week's bipartisan State Lines panel says history suggests a tightening. Here's @knreynolds04 #ncpol

In honor of Dolly Parton’s life and work, it is an honor to proclaim 9/25 “9 to 5 Day – or Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library Day of Reading.”

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library has helped millions of children discover the joy of reading, including more than 240,000 children across North Carolina. Her generosity has also made a difference for families in western North Carolina recovering from Hurricane Helene.

Dolly has left an incredible mark on our state and on generations of children, and it’s an honor to recognize her legacy.

Dolly Parton is getting her own day in California. Gov. Gavin Newsom officially signed Dolly Parton Day into law on Sunday, with the annual celebration set for Sept. 25 in honor of her iconic song, “9 to 5.”

We gave Breitbart hard passes when Joe Biden was president. And if Politico was somehow friendly to Democratic White Houses, there are a lot of Biden and Obama spokespeople who'd like many hours of our lives back.

The @BiltmoreChamp brought thousands of @PGATour golf fans to Asheville over the past week.

It’s great to see such an event bringing visitors to western North Carolina, generating millions of dollars in economic activity, and supporting local businesses while showcasing our state to golf fans around the world.

Should @UNC_System Board of Governors limit the public money (Student fees, etc.) that does to the 15 athletic departments in NC? @UNC & @NCState don't rely heavily on public funds - like sports betting revenue - but other schools. Here's @RaleighReporter on State Lines. #ncpol

NC voters will vote on a "property tax cap" amendment on the '26 ballot. It actually offers a state constitutional amendment requiring state lawmakers to pass a future law...& craft the details of a tax cap later. @HenryHinton1 looks past the ballot & wants tax cap details. From State Lines. #ncpol @MyPBSNC
