John Locke Update / Impact Newsletter

Carolina Journal coverage attracts lawmakers’ attention

posted on

N.C. Senate Republicans promoted in their daily press emails this week a number of articles featured at CarolinaJournal.com. CJ Associate Editor Barry Smith wrote about charter school districts and a Federalist Society forum on voter identification laws. Associate Editor Dan Way discussed a scathing state audit of North Carolina’s Medicaid program, followed up with an article citing ongoing criticism of the Medicaid system, and chronicled the survival of Internet sweepstakes operations after a recent N.C. Supreme Court ruling that appeared to have struck them down.

The Senate GOP also highlighted tax reform columns from John Hood and Becki Gray, along with Hood’s columns on North Carolina’s so-called glory days and the state Senate’s vote against two key pieces of Obamacare. The Senate email cited CJ’s parody about state government job incentives announcements.
