On this episode of Tying it Together, North Carolina’s new House Speaker Destin Hall joins host Tim Boyum for a wide-ranging discussion about his new role and working with a new governor. At just 37, he’s the state’s youngest speaker ever, and he’s not afraid to be frank.
Speaker Hall also goes in depth with Tim on the major topics of today like Hurricane Helene relief, immigration and much more.
“If you’re here illegally and you’re committing crimes, you gotta go,” he told Tim on the podcast. He added that being rules chair for almost five years with N.C. Sen. Phil Berger has helped him gain experience and respect in getting deals done.
The podcast ends with Tim shooting a few fun questions to Hall.
