On his second day as Governor of North Carolina, Pat McCrory signed into law a comprehensive reform of the state’s unemployment insurance system. The new law applies to new claims for unemployment benefits filed on or after July 1, 2013. One of House Bill 4’s stated purposes is to address North Carolina’s unemployment insurance debt — North Carolina’s unemployment insurance system currently owes more than $2.5 billion dollars to the federal government.
