The NCLM Opinion about the US Supreme Court decision re: Kelo vs. New London, CT

Ellis Hankins editorial about the Kelo Decision and it's impact on North Carolina

He thinks that we couldn't possibly have come to an intelligent conclusion about how Kelo could impact NC property owners.

NCLM Town Hall Day is a legislative rally and one-day conference held during the General Assembly session.

In the afternoon, there is a legislative briefing on the status of key issues, and legislative leaders address the municipal officials. Town Hall Day ends with a reception honoring legislators.
