by Amber Nimocks and Laura Leslie
The N.C. General Assembly wrapped up its short session on Saturday after approving several provisions that will let corporations off the hook for millions of dollars in taxes. Proponents say the state needs these tax incentives to attract businesses and jobs to the state. Opponents say it's corporate welfare. We'll take a look at the recent legislation with guests Mark Binker, capital reporter for the News & Record of Greensboro; and Bob Orr, executive director of the N.C. Institute for Constitutional Law. Our host will be Capitol Bureau Chief Laura Leslie, who is sitting in for Frank Stasio.
