Two Years Since Helene and WNC Recovery Plan

View descriptionShare
 

North Carolina is marking two years since Hurricane Helene devastated western communities, killing 107 people and causing nearly $60 billion in damage, while recovery and rebuilding efforts continue across the region. Governor Josh Stein has unveiled a long-term economic recovery plan developed with input from 28 counties and regional organizations, focusing on areas including infrastructure, housing, workforce development, tourism, agriculture, and economic growth. Mitch Kokai of the John Locke Foundation joins the program to discuss a federal judge’s decision to delay former FBI Director James Comey’s arraignment until January 2027. Plus, North Carolina lawmakers return to Raleigh for a skeleton session, with no votes expected until after the November election.
