Domecast From Under The Dome

Domecast, The News & Observer’s weekly podcast on government and politics in North Carolina, is ready for the weekend of May 20-21. The N.C. House voted overwhelmingly this week to "Raise the Age" and become the final state in the country to stop automatically prosecuting 16- and 17-year-olds as adults. We also learned more about what's tucked into the Senate's budget bill this week, including cuts to food stamps the the Governor's School program. And Gov. Roy Cooper was in Washington, D.C., this week. Our reporter panel explains those issues and more in this week's episode, and we pick a Headliner of the Week. Jordan Schrader of The News & Observer hosts, with Colin Campbell, Craig Jarvis, Lynn Bonner and Will Doran of the N&O. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
