(The Center Square) – Republican three-fifths supermajorities – 30 in the Senate, 72 in the House – are in the process of reversing North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper's vetoes, and Democrats by the dozen who supported the bills are reversing their votes.
The latest action was Tuesday, when a modern-day record six bills became law on override votes – five in the House of Representatives, and a sixth late in the day in the Senate.
The new laws prohibit environmental, social and governance factors in government hiring and financial decisions; prohibit compelled speech in state employment; address counties or municipalities that fail to submit annual independent audits to the Local Government Commission on a timely basis; include two separate acts that deal with fees and interest rates for loans; and puts the North Carolina Farm Act into place.
The General Assembly is 8-for-8 reversing Cooper vetoes this session.
In all eight, no Republican has voted “no” in either chamber.

How sweet it is!
On the first two of those bills, the Democrats are squarely against civil rights.
On the others, the Democrats are supporting criminal behavior.
Nothing new here.
Can’t they just get. Republican governor in there?
Any bets on some (all?) of these laws being ignored in NC? The leftists have the middle-finger response down cold.
As long as the polls in Durham are open all night, no.
