North Carolina Politics: Budget, Taxes & Power Bills w/ Governor Josh Stein

This week on The Hometown Holler, the fellas sit down with Governor Josh Stein to break down what’s happening inside the General Assembly, why billions of dollars are on the line, and how decisions being made right now could shape the future of our state. We get into it all, from teacher pay and tax cuts to data centers popping up in folks’ backyards and who’s actually footing the bill. If you’ve been wondering why things feel stuck… or who’s really benefiting… this is the conversation you need to hear.Join the Holler:Patreon: / thehometownholler Buy us a coffee: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted...Substack: https://substack.com/@thehometownhollerWebsite: https://www.thehometownholler.com/In this episode:Why NC hasn’t passed a real budget in yearsWhere billions of dollars could go (and who gets left out)The truth about tax cuts and who actually benefitsData centers, energy costs, and what’s coming nextRural NC, jobs, and what growth should actually look likeWhat it’s like being Governor in this moment
