Description

Community activists from western North Carolina voiced their frustrations at the U.S. Capitol on Monday.


They’re upset about the slow pace of Hurricane Helene recovery relief, which they blame on the federal government.


Meanwhile, Governor Josh Stein’s advisory committee on Western North Carolina recover, a bipartisan group of state and local officials in charge of Helene recovery goals, are pretty upset as well.


WRAL state government reporter Will Doran discusses what these groups say is slowing things down and what they want to see change. Plus, what federal government representatives are saying about the complaints.
