NC LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR PLANS TO SUE COOPER
Lt. Gov. Dan Forest, a Republican, said Thursday he plans to file a lawsuit against Cooper over executive orders related to the coronavirus pandemic.
“Today, I notified Governor Cooper that, as a member of the Council of State, I will be suing his administration for violating the Emergency Management Act,” Forest said in a post on Facebook. “The governor has repeatedly ignored the law, enacting mandates that selectively target the businesses and citizens of North Carolina without concurrence from a majority of the Council of State.”
The lawsuit comes after Cooper announced Wednesday the state was staying in Phase Two of reopening as coronvirus cases, hospitalizations and the percentage of tests coming back positive remain high.
