House Ethics Probe in NC: The U.S. House Ethics Committee has opened an investigation into western North Carolina Rep. Chuck Edwards, looking into claims he fostered a hostile work environment and engaged in sexual harassment. Edwards says he welcomes the review and believes it will “expose the facts,” while the committee stresses that an investigation doesn’t mean wrongdoing occurred. Drought Deepens: North Carolina’s worst drought in nearly two decades is getting worse, with extreme conditions covering most of the state and farmers reporting major crop losses. Coastal PFAS Fight: A proposed PFAS “minimization” rule is drawing backlash from coastal groups after tests found elevated PFAS in sea foam, with critics warning the plan lacks strong enforceable limits. Helene Recovery Push: Western NC tourism leaders are urging visitors back as recovery funding talks continue and key attractions look to reopen. Local Politics Reminder: Election day is Tuesday—voters are being urged to show up.
