Legislative Republicans announced this afternoon they won't fight Gov. Bev Perdue's veto of Senate Bill 13, a budget-cutting bill that would have raided job development funds.  

But Perdue says she won't veto H2, a GOP-backed measure that would add NC to a lawsuit filed by multiple states seeking to overturn the individual mandate portion of the federal health care reform law. 

And Wednesday, the N.C. Senate debates big changes to the state's charter schools system. It's all in tonight's rundown. Watch the video for more.

Laura Leslie, for a reporter, your politics are pretty easy to figure out. During your interview with Pat McCrory recently, your love for the old guard in this state was written all over your face, as well as your contempt for conservatives. I just can't watch you, anymore, when the subject is politics.
