As part of the General Assembly's final version of state budget for FY2019-21 (H.B. 966), legislators have included earmarked special appropriations of more than $117 million to 207 nonprofits in key legislative districts. The Center has compiled a list of these earmarks.

The NC House of Representatives and NC Senate have each approved their versions of the state budget for FY2019-21. The Center has prepared a comparison chart highlighting key nonprofit provisions in the House and Senate versions of the budget and final legislative compromise budget released on June 25.

Seven bills filed in the NC General Assembly this year would establish a nonpartisan process for drawing North Carolina's congressional and state legislative districts every 10 years. The North Carolina Center for Nonprofits strongly supports shifting to a nonpartisan, independent redistricting process, since ending gerrymandering would strengthen nonprofits' voices on public policy issues.
