Author: WRAL News | Raleigh, North Carolina April 22, 2023 Duration: 27:17

The North Carolina General Assembly remains on its rocket sled, churning through legislation, including the series of culture war bills dominating recent headlines. Plus: The Community College System named a new president, beating a push for the General Assembly to take more control of that process. And big money, big business bills to watch (including some likely to move next week). The new farm bill is rolling and ... does someone want to build casinos in some of North Carolina's poorer counties? WRAL's NCCapitol team gets you all caught up on The Wrap.
