North Carolina Senate passes two year budget plan
The Senate approved a 23.9 billion spending proposal for the next fiscal year by a 30-16 vote as negotiations with the House begin. Leaders aim to craft a consensus budget for Gov. Roy Cooper, who retains a veto stamp and criticizes planned corporate tax cuts while education needs remain urgent. A late amendment restored three Beasley court staff positions, with Democrats objecting to the prior plan to cut them. The debate touched on Medicaid, Vidant Medical Center, and plans for a potential new teaching hospital for ECU.
