SUMMARY: The North Carolina House has successfully overridden a Senate bill, providing an additional $227 million in disaster assistance for recovery from Hurricane Helene. The House voted 72-46 in favor of the override, while the Senate completed its part with a 30-19 vote. Governor Roy Cooper’s administration is nearing 104 vetoes, with a perfect override rate by Republicans, who hold majorities in both chambers. The bill, which addresses various law changes alongside disaster relief, comes as recovery efforts from Helene, which struck in late September, continue. Litigation may ensue, reflecting the ongoing tensions between Cooper and the Legislature.
