GOP in Senate does not have the votes, so budget veto override vote moved to Tuesday… or Weds… or when?

Well, folks, it’s time to hurry up and wait… again. After announcing that the Senate would vote on Monday whether or not to override Gov. Cooper’s veto of the GOP budget Senate Republicans decided, once again, not to vote because all the Democrats showed up.

Republicans should negotiate with Democrats on a budget that helps everyone and moves our state forward. It’s time for Republicans to give up the idea of a budget that continues to cut taxes for corporations while shortchanging our public schools and working families who need more affordable health care.
