Gov. Josh Stein Calls For Expanded Access To Affordable Housing In North Carolina

Published

There's an income tax amendment and a property tax amendment, and I think these constitutional amendments are really con jobs because what it will end up doing is putting more burden on working people. The income tax, it's never been 3.5%. Right now it's 3.79. It's about to go 3.74. It's about to go to 3.49. And they're saying that if we go into a recession, that we can't raise the tax higher than 3.5%. (16:43–16:54)
