Show Notes
North Carolinas government transparency is under threat as lawmakers push for less openness, particularly targeting the State Bar. Proposals aim to increase political influence, limit public access, and conceal decision-making processes. This trend aligns with previous moves like the 2018 campaign finance rules overhaul and redistricting, which also shielded details from public scrutiny. Figures like Larry Shaheen, a lawyer with ties to Republican leadership, are driving these changes, raising concerns about accountability and public trust.
