The General Assembly is currently in recess, even though Republican lawmakers have yet to agree on a budget plan. What should North Carolinians know about the budget impasse and the issues behind it? Aaron welcomes State Sen. Graig Meyer (D-Orange) to discuss that and other issues – including partisan gerrymandering, federal SNAP benefit cuts, a recent controversy involving Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools, what Gov. Stein can do to address the budget impasse, and what we can do to stay positive and work effectively to make our community a better place, even in difficult times.
