State legislators have made headlines this week.

The House offered support for Governor McCrory鈥檚 economic incentives package while Senate leadership proposed their own plan.

Legislators also offered measures to eliminate religious exemptions for student vaccinations and proposed legislation that would hinder citizens' abilities to fight large developments across the state. And a three-judge panel unanimously sided with Governor McCrory and two former governors in a lawsuit against the legislature on the appointments of three environmental commissions.

Host Frank Stasio talks with 吉彩网网站 Capitol Reporter about the latest.
