Show Notes
North Carolinas Supreme Court overturns Leandro ruling, halting $1.75 billion public school funding plan. Democrats and educators decry it as a moral failure, while Republicans and poor county lawmakers warn of widening rich-poor district gap. Three justices dissent, accusing the majority of shirking constitutional duties. The case, started in 1994, aims to address unequal resources in low-wealth counties. With midterms approaching and no Democratic court flip until 2028, funding battles remain uncertain.
