    ONE STEP FORWARD, TWO STEPS BACK FOR CLEAN ENERGY? Representatives Dean Arp, John Szoka, and Sam Watford introduced House Bill 589, “Competitive Energy Solutions for North Carolina” during the 2017 session. This bill took small steps towards increasing the role solar plays in the state’s energy mix by creating a competitive bidding process and by expanding rooftop solar. Senator Harry Brown added a moratorium on wind energy projects, claiming NC’s military operations would be under threat by wind turbines. Senator Brown used the once bipartisan supported clean energy bill as an attempt to pit solar against wind. Governor Cooper refused to allow Brown to claim victory: after signing H589 into law, Cooper immediately issued an executive order to the Dept. of Environmental Quality asking for the expedition of wind project permits. No 18-month ban will stop this clean energy source from moving forward. WATER, AIR, AND HEALTH Legislators continued to put the water, air, and health of North Carolinians at risk throughout the 2017 legislative long session. State lawmakers approved a bill that would allow companies to spray “garbage juice” into our air; passed a policy that limits the amount of financial compensation a resident or property owner can receive for detrimental health and livelihood impacts in hog pollution or other nuisance cases; and thumbed their noses at local control over environmental safeguards by prohibiting state regulators from making stricter water quality rules than the federal standards (assuming those even exist). Overall, leaders of the General Assembly showed a lack of empathy for their constituents and clear preference for polluters with deep pockets in 2017.

  • Ch 5 NC Legislature.Indd
    The State Legislature The General Assembly is the oldest governmental body in North Carolina. According to tradition, a “legislative assembly of free holders” met for the first time around 1666. No documentary proof, however, exists proving that this assembly actually met. Provisions for a representative assembly in Proprietary North Carolina can be traced to the Concessions and Agreements, adopted in 1665, which called for an unicameral body composed of the governor, his council and twelve delegates selected annually to sit as a legislature. This system of representation prevailed until 1670, when Albemarle County was divided into three precincts. Berkeley Precinct, Carteret Precinct and Shaftsbury Precinct were apparently each allowed five representatives. Around 1682, four new precincts were created from the original three as the colony’s population grew and the frontier moved westward. The new precincts were usually allotted two representatives, although some were granted more. Beginning with the Assembly of 1723, several of the larger, more important towns were allowed to elect their own representatives. Edenton was the first town granted this privilege, followed by Bath, New Bern, Wilmington, Brunswick, Halifax, Campbellton (Fayetteville), Salisbury, Hillsborough and Tarborough. Around 1735 Albemarle and Bath Counties were dissolved and the precincts became counties. The unicameral legislature continued until around 1697, when a bicameral form was adopted. The governor or chief executive at the time, and his council constituted the upper house. The lower house, the House of Burgesses, was composed of representatives elected from the colony’s various precincts. The lower house could adopt its own rules of procedure and elect its own speaker and other officers.

  • North Carolina: Update on Gun Bills in the General Assembly Pro-Gun Bills
    North Carolina: Update on Gun Bills in the General Assembly Pro-Gun Bills: House Bill 69, introduced by state Representative Larry Pittman (R-82), seeks to establish constitutional/permitless carry. House Bill 201, introduced by state Representative Chris Millis (R-16), is an omnibus bill which contains many pro-gun reforms. Among the reforms are ones that would establish constitutional/permitless carry, repeal the Pistol Purchase Permit (PPP) requirement, and make changes to the laws regulating firearms on public college and university campuses. House Bill 251, introduced by state Representative Kyle Hall (R-91), is a companion bill to Senate Bill 204, introduced by state Senator Bill Cook (R-1). These are NRA- supported bills that would establish Campus Carry and allow for Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) holders to lawfully carry concealed firearms for personal protection on public college and university campuses. House Bill 345, introduced by state Representative Michael Speciale (R-3), is another omnibus package. Among its proposals it seeks to make changes to the laws governing firearms on public college and university campuses, certain state properties, and the disposition of seized or confiscated firearms. House Bill 452, introduced by state Representative Brian Turner (D-116), is an NRA-supported bill that seeks to amend North Carolina’s bankruptcy laws and recognize the fundamental right to personal protection by ensuring citizens who have fallen on hard times, financially, will not be required to sell all of their firearms maintained for personal protection in order to satisfy their debts. It allows for the retention of no more than two handguns and four rifles or shotguns, provided the total value does not exceed $5,000.00.

Other branches of government established by the North Carolina Constitution are the executive branch and the judicial branch. The North Carolina Constitution gives the General Assembly the authority: (1) to make or enact laws; (2) to establish rules and regulations governing the conduct of the people, their rights, duties, and procedures; and (3) to prescribe the consequences of certain activities. The General Assembly has the power to make new laws and to amend or repeal existing laws which affect all people of the state as well as laws affecting local communities. From 1776 to 1794, before Raleigh became the State Capital, each new session of the General Assembly moved from town to town. They met in Halifax, Hillsborough, Fayetteville, New Bern, Smithfield, and Tarboro. They met in courthouses, schools, local residences, or in any structure large enough to hold the legislators. The General Assembly of 1794 – 1795 was the first to meet in Raleigh.
