Wednesday wrap: Racial Justice Act repeal still in limbo

The parts of the Racial Justice Act not gutted by legislators last year are in the crosshairs of Senate Bill 306, but the bill didn't get a vote in House Judiciary B committee Wednesday. It'll be back on the committee's agenda next week at the state legislature.

RALEIGH, N.C. — The parts of the Racial Justice Act not gutted by legislators last year are in the crosshairs of Senate Bill 306, but the bill didn't get a vote in House Judiciary B committee Wednesday. It'll be back on the committee's agenda next week at the state legislature.

Wednesday saw the Senate give its budget proposal a first, party-line pass and the House tweak the deal to sell the Dorothea Dix property.

Meantime, a key House chairman handed back his gavel with a scathing letter blasting fellow Republican House Speaker Thom Tillis.

Capitol Bureau Chief Laura Leslie and Investigative Reporter Mark Binker have the details.
