AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Election Security & Foreign Claims: Trump’s latest primetime push that China “stole” 220 million voter files drew immediate pushback from voting and cybersecurity experts, who say the data was likely public and that there’s no sign of election interference. State Elections Policy: North Carolina’s GOP-led election board is making it easier to reject ballots, while critics warn new rules could increase ballot rejection risk. DHS Noncitizen Voting Claims: Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin doubled down on claims of noncitizens on voter rolls, even as state letters describe the numbers as unverified and ask for identity checks. PFAS & Accountability: NC AG Jeff Jackson is asking residents to weigh in on a proposed EPA-Chemours settlement he calls a “backroom deal,” arguing North Carolina wasn’t at the table. Water Infrastructure: DEQ approved more than $244M for drinking water and wastewater projects statewide, including Helene recovery and lead-pipe replacement. Data Centers & Local Zoning: Southport planners recommended a 15-month data center moratorium, and Mount Airy’s 60-day freeze is now in effect as counties consider longer pauses. Public Safety & Courts: A murder case hearing in Robeson County was delayed again in Connie Graham’s case, with the defense questioning whether prosecutors have enough evidence. Health & Food Safety: Federal health officials linked a multi-state cyclosporiasis outbreak to shredded iceberg lettuce from a Mexico supplier used by Taco Bell; Taylor Farms says it’s removing the implicated lettuce.
