As the N.C. House haggled this week over the future of renewable energy mandates in North Carolina, Time Warner Cable News’ statewide “Capital Tonight” program turned to John Locke Foundation Vice President for Outreach Becki Gray for analysis of the debate. Gray discussed the latest legislative news and prospects for Medicaid reform during a presentation to the Al-Pam Republican Club in Belhaven.

Gray discusses coal ash, the state budget surplus, and school calendar disputes this weekend on the syndicated “N.C. Spin” television program. She continues twice-weekly politics and public policy updates for WTSB Radio in Johnston County and launched a new regular weekly radio appearance with Pete Kaliner on WWNC Radio in Asheville. The N.C. Spin website and N.C. Senate Republicans promoted Gray’s “Locker Room” blog entry on state solar energy subsidies.

Another hot topic for state legislators involves the future of targeted corporate tax incentives. Vice President for Research Roy Cordato released a report this week calling for an end to all incentives programs. Cordato discussed his research with Lockwood Phillips on WTKF’s “Viewpoints Radio.” NCPoliticalNews.com also promoted that report.

Carolina Journal Managing Editor Rick Henderson and JLF Director of Outreach Donna Martinez assess the week’s major political developments during this weekend’s edition of Curtis Media Group’s syndicated “People In Politics” program. Director of Communications Mitch Kokai discussed corporate tax incentives for a Time Warner Cable News story.
