North Carolina S806 holds General Assembly members' salaries in escrow if a budget isn't passed by June 30, 2026.
North Carolina S806, the No Budget, No Pay Act, mandates that if the General Assembly fails to ratify a Current Operations Appropriations Act for the 2026-2027 fiscal year by June 30, 2026, the Legislative Services Officer will direct the General Assembly Controller to place all compensation and allowances of General Assembly members in an escrow account starting July 1, 2026. The Controller will release these funds once a budget is ratified or the Assembly adjourns sine die. The act also appropriates $10,000 from the General Fund for implementing these provisions.
