The State budget battle comes to an end

For months, Republicans have been battling over items in the $30 billion state budget. The biggest obstacle was a plan to expand gambling in North Carolina. GOP lawmakers finally agreed to table this for now so that the budget can move forward. The current proposal includes a 7% pay increase for state workers, including teachers, over the next two years. It also continues the goal of lowering the state income tax and clears the way for major Medicaid expansion. In this episode, WRAL state government reporter Travis Fain explains what the budget contains and who will be affected.
