Take Action & Tell NC Lawmakers: Fund Recovery, Remove Dangerous Dams, and Expand Housing Options

The NC House has passed a strong disaster recovery package—HB1012—that includes $10 million for dam removal, $60 million for small business relief, and millions more for clean water infrastructure, parks, and storm cleanup. This is the bill our communities need.

At the same time, housing legislation like SB495, which would allow for more low-impact housing by permitting Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), is stalled in the General Assembly. These “granny flats” and “in-law suites” help address our housing shortage without paving over forests and farmland.

Use the form below to tell your lawmakers:

  • Pass HB1012 without delay.
  • Keep dam removal funding in the bill.
  • Advance SB495 to expand housing options.
