Good morning and welcome to our Under the Dome politics newsletter. I’m Dawn Vaughan, The News & Observer’s Capitol bureau chief.
The ramifications of North Carolina’s state budget stalemate between Republican leaders of the House and Senate extend across the state.
But it also impacts the General Assembly’s own buildings. There are 635 state employees working in the Legislative Building and Legislative Office Building in downtown Raleigh, and the delayed raises from the lack of a budget means their raises are delayed, too.
Through a public records request, I obtained the salary data for everyone who works at the General Assembly, as we’ve done in years past. Check out my latest story to see the range of salaries and jobs on Jones Street.
What we’re working on
- The city of Raleigh is contacting 10,000 residents. Some of them will get $1,000.
