The North Carolina General Assembly has finalized legislation distributing another portion of federal coronavirus relief aid. This time it's for $6.4 billion. The Senate unanimously agreed on Thursday to accept bill changes made by the House, which overwhelmingly passed the measure earlier in the day. The bill was sent to Gov. Roy Cooper's desk for his signature. The legislature had little leeway on how the money contained in the measure could be used, since it was already decided by Congress. Most of the money will help K-12 schools and universities as well as child care and emergency rental assistance programs.
