The Carolina Journal is reporting that a bill meant to curb the teaching of elements of Critical Race Theory in public school classrooms fell short of gaining any Democrat support in the North Carolina House on Wednesday. The chamber passed House Bill 187, Equality in Education, in a party-line vote of 68-49. Three Republicans had excused absences. The lack of any Democrat support makes a successful veto override a long-shot for supporters. Gov. Roy Cooper, a Democrat, vetoed an identical bill in 2021. Photo credit: Arizona State University
