Our year in pictures

My first year as AG                        Lots of photos are loading right now, so let me use the next few moments to quickly say: It’s been a wonderful, purposeful year as your AG. We won a lot of big cases, like protecting SNAP funding for 600,000 kids in our state, $165 mill…

Good news - big win

Our $200m FEMA case                        Big win for our state to tell you about. Here’s what happened: Back in July, I stood at a sewage pump station in Hillsborough that had just flooded during a tropical storm. Millions of gallons of sewage spilled into the river. What made…

The robocall wars continue

And our A.I. task force                        A few weeks ago, I called the Republican attorney general for Utah, Derek Brown. I asked if he would join me in leading a bipartisan, AG-led task force on A.I. abuse. He was great. Agreed fast. Then we sent out word to other AGs, and…

Politics during Thanksgiving

And our SNAP win, CBP, and a big A.I. settlement                        Last time we spoke, I told you we were going to court to protect SNAP. Feels like a long time ago, but it was just a few weeks. It was a huge fight. To recap: We got a letter from the Agriculture Department s…

Our SNAP lawsuit

Food on the table for millions of kids                        You’ve probably seen the headlines that SNAP - our nation’s largest food assistance program, on which 1 in 4 children rely - may be about to come to a screeching halt. The situation is very serious. Here’s a quick vide…

Redistricting strikes again

Also, our big EPA lawsuit   This week, North Carolina’s legislature passed a new congressional map. Because our governor isn’t allowed to veto redistricting bills (a quirk of NC law), that map is now in effect. There will be many legal challenges to this map. More broadly, this is…

Back from our Supreme Court
