Governor Cooper Vetoes One Bill - Published June 21, 2024Today, Governor Roy Cooper vetoed the following bill: House Bill 237: Various Criminal and Election Law Changes. Governor Cooper made the following statement on his veto of HB 237: "This legislation creates a gaping loophole for secret, unlimited campaign money in the middle of an election year. While voters are kept in the dark, this scheme allows anonymous out-of-state billionaires to flood North Carolina with campaign contributions to rescue extreme right-wing candidates that Republicans now fear will lose. The legislation also removes protections and threatens criminal charges for people who want to protect their health by wearing a mask."
