Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!
Breaking Brett Jensen kicks the show off by talking about the North Carolina General Assembly’s passage of the one-cent transit sales tax bill and its implications for Mecklenburg County voters. The bill, now awaiting Governor Josh Stein’s signature, would authorize a November referendum on the tax to fund a $25 billion transit and transportation plan.
Brett is joined by Eric Spanberg of the Charlotte Business Journal, who breaks down what the bill means, including the expected 2026 implementation and the formation of a new transit authority. Spanberg also explains why Matthews opposed the measure, citing changes to the light rail plan that left them with only enhanced bus service.
