Last Call: New Anthem Beer Project Closes Doors Amidst Challenges
[WECT] New Anthem Beer Project, a popular Wilmington brewery, is closing its doors indefinitely, citing financial challenges and pandemic-related production issues. The Dock Street location closed immediately, while the Greenfield Street taproom and production facility will shut down on Sunday. Despite national acclaim for its beers, the brewery struggled to remain viable. Expect deals on beer, merchandise, and glassware this weekend as they prepare to close.

Gov. Cooper Slams Expansion of Private School Vouchers as a "Reckless Waste"
[NC Newsline] Gov. Cooper criticizes the expansion of private school vouchers, calling it a waste of taxpayer money and advocating for a moratorium until public schools are fully funded. He highlights concerns about accountability and the potential impact on public education. Superintendent Truitt and Lt. Gov. Robinson, advocates for school choice, sit beside him. The debate intensifies over the future of education funding in North Carolina.
Chemours Challenges EPA's GenX Health Advisory in Court
[NC Newsline] Chemours, responsible for GenX pollution in the Lower Cape Fear River Basin, is challenging the EPA's health advisory for GenX in court. A ruling in Chemours' favor could save the company millions, impacting water supply solutions for affected households. Despite scientific evidence of GenX's harm, Chemours denies its toxicity. The EPA's revised advisory prompted debate over regulations for unregulated chemicals. The court's decision may set a precedent for future health advisory levels.
