Eastern North Carolina deserves leadership that puts people first! From fighting corruption and expanding access to quality healthcare to strengthening public education and standing against data center expansion, Raymond Smith is committed to the issues that matter to our communities. The contrast is clear! Our values deserve a voice, and our communities deserve a representative who will stand up for them. It’s time to put Eastern NC First! 💙 #RaymondSmith #EasternNCFirst #EasternNorthCarolina #LeadershipThatListens

I am proud and grateful to earn the endorsement of the North Carolina democratic veterans and military family caucus, an organization committed to standing up for veterans, military families, and the values we fought to defend. I look forward to standing with them and with the people of Eastern North Carolina in the fight to protect our democracy and ensure every veteran and military family receives the respect and support they have earned.

Thankful for the Democratic Women of Sampson County and EJCAN for hosting the Denim, Diamond, & Pearls Spring Fling tonight. The event brought awareness to important issues, raised funds for DWSC, and most importantly united citizens and Democratic candidates in personal, roundtable sessions to share ideas and concerns. Enjoyable and rewarding!! Always great to spend time with Donald Edwards for Sherrif, Rev. Thaddeus Godwin for County Commissioner, and Dr Kimberly Hardy for Congress.

I’ve stood in the classroom. I’ve seen firsthand what our teachers carry with them every single day: the long hours, the limited resources, and the constant pressure to do more with less. Later, serving as Vice Chairman of the Wayne County Board of Education, those stories didn’t go away—they followed me into every decision, every conversation. So when I got to the legislature, it was never just about policy. It was about people. It was about fighting for the promise of Leandro v. State of North Carolina and pushing for real teacher pay raises—because our educators deserve more than words. At the recent rally in Raleigh, one thing was clear: our teachers are still being stretched too thin.And here in rural eastern North Carolina, our schools don’t have the luxury of waiting. That’s why I’m running for Congress—to make sure our teachers are supported, our schools are funded, and every child has a fair shot. But campaigns like this are powered by people not special interests. If you believe in investing in our teachers, our students, and our future, I’m asking you to stand with me today. 👉secure.actblue.com/donate/ra… Every contribution—no matter the size—helps us build a campaign that puts people over politics. Thank you for believing in this fight.
