7-29-25: Veto Override Day
Tune in here to this ​Tuesday’s edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!
Breaking Brett Jensen kicks the show off with an exclusive 1-on-1 sit down with Representative David Willis from Union County to discuss a major day of legislative action in Raleigh. With eight successful veto overrides on the House side, including bills targeting school safety, illegal immigration enforcement, and protections for women and minors, Rep. Willis shares key insights into the General Assembly’s priorities. He breaks down House Bill 318, which aims to ensure sheriffs cooperate with federal ICE detainers, and House Bill 193, which allows armed security at private schools.
Jensen and Representative Willis also dive into House Bill 805, which outlines definitions around gender in state law and restricts the use of state funds for gender transition procedures in prisons and among minors. Plus, they explore Senate Bill 254 and its implications for charter school oversight. It’s a packed segment full of context, clarity, and direct conversation about where North Carolina is headed.
Later, Jensen spotlights a powerful and unexpected moment on the House floor as Democratic Representative Carla Cunningham of Mecklenburg County delivers a fiery speech in support of House Bill 318.
