In this week’s “5 Things to Know,” Ann Webb of Common Cause NC looks at what’s happening in the world of Tar Heel politics, including:

• protests continue to mount against Senate Bill 749, a harmful bill that could create chaos and gridlock in North Carolina’s elections, threatening to dismantle popular options like early voting
• the legislature may soon try to overturn the governor’s veto of Senate Bill 747, yet another anti-voter bill that would create damaging barriers to casting a ballot and especially hurt people who rely on absentee voting by mail
• after a months-long delay, leaders of the Republican-controlled NC House and NC Senate may have reached a deal on a new state budget – but will it provide critical election funding?
• a new round of redistricting – and potentially extreme gerrymandering – looms on the horizon for North Carolina
• our #UniteЭкскурсия по ратуше Северной Каролины rolls on across North Carolina as community members speak out on issues that matter most to them and hold lawmakers accountable to the people
