Topic: Overhauling Public School Funding

A legislative task force created by the General Assembly in 2017 is considering overhauling the way North Carolina funds public schools. This week we talk with the co-chairs of that task force, Senator Michael Lee from New Hanover County and Representative Craig Horn from Union County. We’ll discuss what they’ve learned so far and what’s next.

Guests:

Sen. Michael Lee (R-New Hanover)

Rep. Craig Horn (R-Union)
