Under the Dome

The budget has left The Building with policy, raises and power plays


Listen Later

For the week of Sept. 25, 2023, News & Observer Capitol bureau chief and podcast host Dawn Vaughan is joined (again) by politics team colleagues Avi Bajpai and Kyle Ingram.

The General Assembly is full of surprises, not just policy provisions hidden deep in the state budget, but we cover that part, too. This past week brought the final, actually here, budget deal, and casinos weren’t in it.

Within a week, the budget will become law.

We break down some of the play-by-play, a lot of analysis, and even get to Moore reassigning Rep. Terence Everitt, a Wake County Democrat, to the Legislative Building basement, where his new neighbors include the press corps.


Host: Dawn Vaughan

Guest: Avi Bajpai, Kyle Ingram

Executive Producer and audio editor: Laura Brache

Video shot and edited by: Kevin Keister
