State Treasurer Brad Briner says a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling could impact North Carolina’s legal battle over the State Health Plan. Budget talks between the state House and Senate have stalled, delaying broader fiscal action. However, relief funding tied to Hurricane Helene is expected to move forward despite the budget impasse. Meanwhile, the NCInnovation audit committee has flagged errors and postponed final approval of its IRS filing.
