$34 billion NC budget on its way to Gov. Josh Stein after year-long delay

North Carolina's $34 billion budget passed the House and Senate with bipartisan support and moves to Gov. Josh Stein for approval. The budget includes a 23% tax on sports betting revenue and a 6% tax on prediction market trading sites, drawing criticism for potential revenue loss to UNC schools. Legislative delays caused a year-long gap in passing a comprehensive budget.
