In her second state senate term, Beverly Perdue again focused on marine resources.
Three of the 11 successful bills that she sponsored modified the laws regarding appointments to the Marine Fisheries Commission, allowed the Department of Agriculture to regulate the production and sale of commercially raised fish, and permitted the secretary of Environment and Natural Resources to grant shellfish cultivation licenses and study marine litter prevention.
Other successes prohibited hunting from some Craven County roads and created a commission to develop state-wide education standards.
Perdue sponsored 86 bills during that term.
Her community college efforts were less successful. All four bills failed, including one that would allow motivated 12-year-olds to attend community colleges.
