I spoke to Thom Tillis's aid this afternoon. I was told the budget will be on the governor's desk Saturday. If she signs it we are good for next week. If she does not sign it and she vetoes it they will vote to override the veto on Monday.
I do not understand what the recurring money is but if the governor drags her feet then our state is in jeopardy of losing that money. So I think it is looking good for us or can this be the light at the end of the tunnel.
I hope so that is for sure
So she needs to sign or veto right away. If she holds it for the 10 days, is that for sure we would lose the money? Does she understand that?
Question Why does the governor care so much about kids getting an education and not so much about going them going without food and medicial care and other necessararies that the unemployment would bring
Food is easy to get, all the unemployed here who have kids either make enough from a spouse to feed the kids, or can get food stamps, and free/cheap medical, so feeding and making sure they are healthy are not really an issue here.
Making sure they have the tools to succeed in life, aka an education is an issue.

That is good news! As long as Bev doesn't hold it.
I'd also like to say that, while I certainly don't agree with how Tillis handled this, at least his office had the courtesy of answering the phone, returning calls/emails and making weekly statements.
I sent 46 emails to Bev Perdue = Zero returned emails
I called 29 times (not one answer) and left my number =Zero returned calls
She has completely lost my support from this EB issue.
dude, have you even read the bill? What they stated is correct, all the budget did is shift money around to make it look like they are doing what they said they are doing... Actually read the budget please, and leave your party at the door first, open your mind, and be willing to accept it.
LOL I have been saying the same until I am blue in the face!
Was the response to my statement a joke or is it true. From what I have been reading a lot of peoplle can't get food stamps. on woman could not take sick kids to doctor, many familes have both parents out of work.So if it is so good by this hard push for unemployment?
Has the JOKER said anything about possibly holding the vote? Or would she sign reluctantly???
