  Dalton's 'Shelby Yarn' insurance bill passes House   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
RALEIGH - A bill spurred by the closing of Shelby Yarn - and the subsequent discovery that $1.6 million in health insurance claims went unpaid - has cleared the state House.
The bill, which was introduced by Sen. Walter Dalton, D-Rutherford, would make it illegal for the person responsible for paying insurance premiums and claims at a self-insured company to stop making such payments without giving prior notice to employees.
But the bill will not help any of the 650 former Shelby Yarn employees who lost their jobs when the plant closed its doors in January 2000.

 ARTICLE: Legislators meet in Chowan during historic session (The Virginian-Pilot - HamptonRoads.com/PilotOnline.com)
EDENTON — When Rep. Bill Culpepper, D-Chowan, imagined the state House of Representatives meeting in the restored 1767 Chowan County Courthouse, he thought it would be different from Wednesday’s event.
Culpepper said he pitched the idea for a special House session in the renovated courthouse about 10 years ago after the Courthouse Study Commission suggested that the National Historic Landmark be renovated.
Wednesday’s House of Representatives session was a regular legislative day, but the bills scheduled for voting were limited to issues that didn’t require a constitutional roll call, Culpepper said, to protect from any complaints about the meeting taking place somewhere other than the statehouse in Raleigh.
