Helene relief fight flags funding and deaths in North Carolina
Central figures urge immediate federal and state funds for Western North Carolina recovery after Helene. Critics accuse the General Assembly of inadequate hurricane relief and pushing private school vouchers. Helene remains the deadliest North Carolina storm since 1857 with at least 103 deaths and county tallies led by Buncombe and Yancey.
