As state governor Tate Reeves said on his Twitter page, he is ready to sign a bill to replace the flag.
“Lawmakers have not been able to break the deadlock for several days now when discussing a new flag for the state. The discussion of the 1894 flag was as controversial as the flag itself, and it was time to put an end to it. If they send me a bill this weekend, I will sign it, ”he said.
Earlier, Governor of North Carolina Roy Cooper announced the transfer of monuments to Confederate figures from the territory of the Capitol.
