With crossover behind us, the legislature was a bit slower this week. While calendars were not jam packed with back-to-back committee meetings, lawmakers were still in town to discuss and approve several important pieces of legislation. We will focus on some of those bills in this week s newsletter.
As of Thursday morning, in the state of North Carolina, there were 1,187 confirmed cases of the coronavirus, 793 individuals hospitalized, and sadly, 12,950 confirmed deaths. There have been 7,989,892 doses of the vaccine distributed in NC, which is about 52% of the total adult population.
NC House bill would compare N.C. with other large states for unemployment benefits
For nearly eight years, North Carolinaâs unemployment insurance law and benefits have been linked closely to its Southeast neighbors.
As a result, unemployed and furloughed North Carolinians have received among the nationâs most meager benefits in terms of maximum weeks of between 12 and 16, and maximum weekly payments of $350.
By comparison, 44 states provide at least 26 weeks of regular benefits.
Yet, given North Carolina is the ninth largest state by population at 10.5 million â and closing fast on No. 8 Georgia â some leaders say that limiting employment comparisons to the Southeast may not be the most appropriate measuring stick.

Springfield resident Dan Reed said he enjoyed his vacation timeshare in Ixtapa, on Mexico s Pacific Ocean coast, for at least 20 years. Loved it, loved everything about it, the 93-year-old told the News-Leader Thursday. The resort added new golf courses and other amenities that increased its value, Reed told the News-Leader. He hosted friends and family members from around the country at his timeshare. They all thoroughly enjoyed it, Reed said.
But nothing lasts forever. Reed said the drug trade in that part of Mexico got so bad that I decided to sell after 20 years because the last couple of years I went down there, they were selling drugs on the street downtown in Zihuatanejo, the municipality where Ixtapa is located.
