This tweet from after the 2020 election should disqualify Mike Schietzelt.

Translation: state legislators like him who gerrymander themselves into power can then also steal a presidential election despite the will of the people.

It's official: NC's gas tax is suspended until Nov. 30 after @ncgovernor.bsky.social signs bill into law. But you might not see prices at the pump drop immediately: www.wunc.org/politics/202... #ncpol #ncga

Make no mistake. If Republicans in the NCGA gave a damn about property taxes on fixed income seniors, disabled veterans, or anyone else that isn't a big corporation, there are a million ways they could have helped at any time. The amendment on your ballot is vague for a reason. #NC #VoteNo #NCGA

It's taken NC Republicans over seven months to pass a single bill addressing gas prices. But redrawing voting districts in Eastern NC? Helping Dave Boliek takeover the Election Board? Denying campus voting sites? Those took no time at all. #nc #ncga #gas #prices #priorities

New from me: A look at TV ad spending records for #ncga House races

Good news for Democrats: Republicans feel the need to buy TV ads in districts they won big two years ago.

Bad news for Dems: Dems are only buying TV ads in a few districts so far

The #ncga is back in session today to temporarily pause the gas tax. Here's how it would work: www.wunc.org/politics/202... #ncpol

Ex-legislator Sarah Stevens told a reporter that if she’s elected to the state Supreme Court, she is open to “changing her mind” about whether the bills she voted for are constitutional. She is ADMITTING that she would come to the case with a bias. #ncpol www.theassemblync.com/news/politic... #ncga

NC's Democratic governor backs GOP lawmakers’ push for gas tax relief

“I wish it didn’t take the election season to get this attention,” Gov. Stein said.

Plus what Ag Commish Troxler said about how long the suspension should last.

For our latest election podcast, I headed to Oxford to chat with the two candidates in an #ncga House rematch race in one of the most competitive districts: play.prx.org/listen?ge=pr...

North Carolina voters will face three constitutional amendments on the Nov. 3 ballot. John L. Johnson says all three should be rejected because they're unnecessary ("moot"), harm public schools or give Raleigh more control over local communities. His column is below. #ncpol #ncga

Federal cutbacks in the #SNAP program are expected to cost counties $52 million more starting Oct. 1. The #NCGA rejected requests to have the state pick up the tab.

#NCGA Republicans House Speaker Destin Hall and Senate Leader Phil Berger say they’ll call lawmakers back to consider relief for high fuel prices, but haven’t set a date yet. #ncpol ncnewsline.com/2026/10/03/n...

The gas tax is not the problem. It (under)funds the roads we drive on. The problem is Republicans' fealty to Trump and fossil fuels, and they're not doing anything about that. #ncga

We could do more for North Carolinians who struggle to put food on their table. Instead, #NCGA leaders would rather cater to corporations with major tax breaks that take away dollars that could be used to protect food assistance.

Local governments across NC are dealing with state and federal policy decisions that have pushed costs to their communities. Now, #NCGA lawmakers put an amendment on the ballot that could limit their ability to address these challenges.
