Whereas, on January 20, 2025, President Donald J. Trump issued Executive Order 14168, titled "Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government," which affirms that the United States recognizes only two sexes-male and female-as immutable and grounded in biological reality; and Whereas, the General Assembly finds that North Carolina must provide clarity, certainty, and uniformity to its laws by requiring that the laws and policies of the State reflect and apply biologically grounded definitions of sex; and Whereas, the General Assembly must ensure compliance with Executive Order 14168 and federal policy directives issued by the federal government to maintain eligibility for any and all federal funding and program participation; Now, therefore, | Vetoed |

| H79 | North Carolina Work and Save | AN ACT TO CREATE THE SMALL BUSINESS RETIREMENT SAVINGS PROGRAM AND TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS. Whereas, the General Assembly finds that too many North Carolina citizens have no or inadequate savings for retirement, and an estimated 1.7 million North Carolina working families, including employees, independent contractors, and the self-employed, have no access to an employer-sponsored retirement plan or program or any other easy way to save at work; and Whereas, it is the policy of the State to assist the North Carolina private-sector workforce, including in particular moderate- and lower-income working households, to voluntarily save for retirement, including by facilitating saving in individual retirement accounts (IRAs) as well as by encouraging employers to adopt retirement savings and other retirement plans for employees in the State; and Whereas, more adequate, portable, low-cost, and consumer-protective retirement saving by North Carolina households will enhance their retirement security and ultimately reduce the pressure on State public assistance programs for retirees and other elderly citizens and the potential burden on North Carolina taxpayers to finance such programs; and Whereas, the General Assembly intends to establish a North Carolina Work and Save Program that will use the services of competent and qualified private-sector entities selected by the North Carolina Small Business Retirement Savings Program Board to administer the Program and manage the funds on behalf of the Program participants; and Whereas, the North Carolina Department of State Treasurer manages the State's finances, including pensions, healthcare, investments, and unclaimed property; Now, therefore, | In Committee |
| H199 | Nonconsensual Booting and Towing Reform | AN ACT REFORMING THE LAWS RELATED TO NONCONSENSUAL BOOTING AND TOWING. | In Committee |
| H434 | Lower Healthcare Costs | AN ACT LOWERING HEALTHCARE COSTS AND INCREASING PRICE TRANSPARENCY. Whereas, rising healthcare costs place a significant financial burden on individuals, families, employers, and taxpayers, greatly contribute to inflation, and make it increasingly difficult for residents to access essential healthcare services; and Whereas, North Carolina has intolerably high healthcare costs, with recent studies ranking the State 50th out of 50 in the United States; and Whereas, skyrocketing healthcare costs have resulted in over 40 percent of Americans reporting some type of healthcare debt, according to one study; and Whereas, many patients face unexpected medical bills due to a lack of disclosure about out-of-network providers and a general lack of transparency in healthcare pricing, resulting in financial strain and hardship; and Whereas, employers are burdened with the increasing costs of providing health insurance for employees, leading to higher premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket expenses; and Whereas, patients and employers are often unable to compare the costs of medical services due to a lack of clear and accessible pricing information, hindering their ability to make informed decisions; and Whereas, the absence of price transparency in the healthcare system leads to market inefficiencies, less awareness of price difference, less competition, and higher prices, with consumers often unable to identify the most cost-effective providers; and Whereas, transparency in healthcare pricing allows consumers to shop for affordable healthcare services and encourages competition among healthcare providers to offer more competitive pricing; and Whereas, providing consumers with clear, understandable, and accessible information about the costs of healthcare services will foster a more competitive and patient-centered healthcare market; and Whereas, requiring healthcare providers and insurers to disclose their prices in advance, including all providers and services a patient may need, both in-network and out-of-network, will enable consumers to make more informed choices about their care, leading to better healthcare outcomes at lower costs; and Whereas, price transparency will incentivize hospitals and healthcare providers to improve the quality of care while reducing prices, to the benefit of patients and employers; and Whereas, clear pricing and competition among healthcare providers will encourage innovation in healthcare delivery and improve overall efficiency within the system; and Whereas, empowering patients and employers with pricing information will help create a healthcare system that prioritizes affordability, access, and choice; and Whereas, President Trump recently signed an Executive Order to make healthcare prices transparent, "empower[ing] patients with clear, accurate, and actionable healthcare pricing information," also "ensur[ing] hospitals and insurers disclose actual prices, not estimates, and take action to make prices comparable across hospitals and insurers, including prescription drug prices"; Now, therefore, | Crossed Over |

| H597 | Adopt Osprey as State Raptor | AN ACT TO ADOPT THE OSPREY AS THE OFFICIAL RAPTOR OF THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA. Whereas, ospreys are raptors that are plentiful in North Carolina, inhabiting estuaries, lakes, rivers, and marshes throughout the Coastal Plain, but can often be seen nesting as well near lakes and rivers in other parts of the State; and Whereas, ospreys are majestic birds that stand 21 to 26 inches tall, weigh up to four pounds, and have wingspans that measure up to about six feet; and Whereas, ospreys have plumage that is generally dark on the back and wings, while the under plumage is mostly white; and Whereas, ospreys have distinctive white coloring on the top of their heads and a dark stripe that runs through each eye to the nape; and Whereas, ospreys can be recognized during flight by the crooked or M-shape of their wings; and Whereas, ospreys are diurnal birds of prey that hunt during daylight hours when they use their keen eyesight to focus on locating fish just below the surface of the water; and Whereas, ospreys are unique among North American raptors, feeding almost exclusively on live fish with a diet that includes about 80 different species of saltwater and freshwater fish; and Whereas, ospreys are the only raptors that plunge into water feet first and can dive 30 miles per hour or greater to grasp fish with their specially equipped talons; and Whereas, ospreys have earned the reputation as "Fishermen of the Seas"; and Whereas, ospreys are one of the most easily observed birds of prey, because they use brush, driftwood, sticks, twigs, and other debris to build large, bulky nests in dead trees along waterways or in man-made structures over open water, such as channel markers; and Whereas, ospreys typically reach sexual maturity in their third year and are monogamous, with pairs returning to the same nest year after year, usually in early March for breeding season; and Whereas, the female usually lays two to five eggs, for which the incubation period is 34 to 40 days, and, after the chicks hatch, they remain in the nest for 48 to 59 days to fledge, becoming independent of their parents four to eight weeks later but prior to the start of fall migration; and Whereas, although female ospreys are somewhat larger than males, each partner has an average life expectancy that exceeds 10 years; and Whereas, because of their sensitivity to contaminants in the environment and the ease with which they can be observed and monitored, ospreys can serve as an excellent indicator of the health of the environment; and Whereas, the U.S. osprey population has been increasing steadily since 1960 when it was at an all-time low, which was attributed to the peak of the use of harmful pesticides, which were leeching into U.S. waterways; and Whereas, the resiliency of the osprey reflects the spirit of the "Tar Heel nature" of the people of the State of North Carolina; and Whereas, North Carolina does not have an official State raptor; Now, therefore, | Crossed Over |

Marion General Hospital, 202 N.C. 337 (1932) established case law in North Carolina, enduring for 90 years, that prevented a registered nurse from being liable when acting under the orders of a physician; and Whereas, that case law was overturned in Connette ex rel. Gullatte v.

Whereas, communities around the State are facing threats to their drinking water sources and the health of their citizens due to per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS); and Whereas, one of the major sources of this contamination is certain firefighting foams, and in particular the firefighting foams used to fight petroleum fires, called aqueous film forming foam (AFFF); and Whereas, PFAS contamination is strongly linked to cancer, thyroid problems, reproductive system damage, and impairment to children's growth and development; and Whereas, cancer is now the leading cause of line-of-duty deaths for firefighters; and Whereas, less toxic alternatives to AFFF containing PFAS have been developed that are environmentally friendly, such as synthetic fluorine free foam; and Whereas, while AFFF may continue to be used because it is a more effective fire suppressant in combating petroleum type fires, firefighters will have reduced exposure to PFAS contamination if less toxic alternatives are used for training, practice, or testing; Now, therefore, | Crossed Over |

Bass, and the danger of Otis with a "leg of lamb"; and Whereas, people of all ages can appreciate a good "citizen's arrest," dealing with a well-intentioned friend like Barney Fife, a tough teacher like Helen Crump, and a nosy neighbor like Clara Edwards; and Whereas, most importantly, everyone should know better than to accept a peanut butter and jelly sandwich from Leon; and Whereas, it is fitting to recognize the positive impact of "The Andy Griffith Show" on our State and nation by adopting the show as the official television show of the State of North Carolina; Now, therefore, | Crossed Over |
