Meanwhile, a new audit of the Charlotte Area Transit System found millions of dollars in estimated annual losses from fare evasion while also identifying broader security and enforcement concerns. Mitch Kokai of the John Locke Foundation joins the program to discuss the latest developments in the COVID-era shutdown lawsuit, where bar owners argue former Governor Roy Cooper’s testimony is “crucial” to their case.
