Governor Names Military and Veterans Affairs Secretary
Governor Roy Cooper has named retired Lieutenant General Walter Gaskin to lead the North Carolina Department of Military and Veterans Affairs. After a career at the highest levels of the United States Marine Corps, Walter Gaskin understands well the challenges and opportunities faced by active duty military personnel, veterans and their families and he shares my belief that North Carolina should be the most veteran- and military-friendly state in the nation. I appreciate General Gaskin s willingness to serve our state in this new capacity and look forward to his leadership at the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, said Governor Cooper.
Who is Gov. Cooper appointing to empty Cabinet posts, legislative seats? Will Doran, The News & Observer (Raleigh, N.C.)
Jan. 13 RALEIGH With four Cabinet seats and two Wake County seats in the state legislature all up for grabs at the start of the new year, Gov. Roy Cooper has been busy appointing new people to those high-profile state government roles.
Democratic President-elect Joe Biden is responsible for one of the vacancies, after he tapped North Carolina environmental chief Michael Regan to lead the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency after Biden takes office.
That leaves Cooper to pick a new N.C. Department of Environmental Quality secretary, to replace Regan, as Cooper begins his second term in office. The job will deal with everything from industrial and farming pollution, to continuing Cooper s goal of reducing North Carolina s greenhouse gas emissions.
