The North Carolina Republican Party has issued the following statement regarding the successful veto override of HB 10:

"As we have said for months, requiring Sheriffs to cooperate with ICE while over 10 million illegal immigrants have poured across the Southern border is a common sense measure that will immediately make North Carolina communities safer and stronger. 

Fully funding Opportunity Scholarships allowing families to choose an education plan that works best for them is a common sense way to improve student outcomes across our state.

The successful override of Lame Duck Gov. Roy Cooper's veto shows our state is ready to move forward and embrace common sense policies that put North Carolina families first, not the liberal special interests. " - NCGOP Communications Director Matt Mercer
