After SPIN! Video: Should the Attorney General have to defend all NC laws?

Published December 7, 2016

After SPIN! "Question for Rufus and Bob Orr – It was recently revealed that the legislature spent more than 10 million dollars on outside legal funds to defend laws they had passed. Why would they have to spend so much on outside lawyers? Isn’t  the job of the Attorney General to defend these laws? We are going to once again have a Democrat as Attorney General and a Republican controlled legislature. Can we expect more of the same in coming years?"

Perhaps eliminate the elected position State Attorney General and have the Governor appoint the Executive Attorney General and the Legislature appoint the Legislative Attorney General.
