Stein’s Deadline on Iryna’s Law, USDA Hub in Raleigh, Fed Shutdown

Governor Stein has just one day left to either sign or veto Iryna’s Law, a justice reform measure sparked by the Charlotte light rail murder of Iryna Zarutska. Meanwhile, the federal government shutdown continues. In Raleigh, Deputy USDA Secretary Vaden announced the city will become a new national workforce hub for the agency, highlighting its role in federal expansion. Separately, a federal appeals court has unsealed video from a 2019 Charlotte law enforcement shooting, renewing public interest in the case.
