“House Minority Leader Robert Reives, speaking on behalf of Democrats, said that the special session should have focused on not just gas prices, but other daily costs that have increased, including groceries and utility bills.” pro.stateaffairs.com/nc/taxe… #ncpol #ncga

“If we are serious about helping folks, we’ve got plenty of time before the election,” Reives said. “If we had been serious about helping folks, we have been in session constantly since January 2025.” #ncpol #ncga

I hope you can join Gov. @SpanbergerForVA and me for a fundraiser next Tuesday, October 6th in Raleigh! We’ve seen how Democrats can win power in Virginia and I’m excited to push for more seats in the North Carolina House in November. secure.actblue.com/donate/re…

Today, @RepJoeMorelle, @ValerieFoushee, and I hosted a shadow hearing on election security, where we spoke with voting rights experts about recent efforts to interfere with elections in NC and across the country. Voting is a fundamental right, and we will work to ensure that every North Carolinian who is eligible to vote can make their voice heard.

North Carolinians are ready for a change. Life is unaffordable and it's only getting worse. It's time for new leadership in Washington and Raleigh. #ncpol #ncga

One state legislative seat can change the balance of power & impact millions of lives. In 2024, we worked with @DLCC to break the GOP’s stranglehold on power in the NC House. We’re grateful to have their support as we work to make further gains this year: DLCC.org/NorthCarolina

Today marks 25 years since the horrific attacks on 9/11. Thousands of lives were lost, and we made a commitment as a nation that we would never forget. We owe a debt of gratitude to the first responders who ran into the danger and saved lives. We can never thank them enough.

We can never forget the horrific attacks that occurred 25 years ago. Today, we honor the lives lost, including the men and women who ran toward danger to help when they were needed most. May we carry their memory as a reminder of the service we owe this country and each other.

Republicans in the General Assembly have used their control to force the MAGA agenda on North Carolinians over our governor's veto. The stakes couldn’t be higher for Democrats to break their unchecked hold on power this year: DLCC.org/NorthCarolina

North Carolina is one of our best opportunities to build power by breaking the GOP’s stranglehold on the legislature and giving the governor veto power over the GOP’s MAGA agenda. Proud to work with @DLCC to get it done! DLCC.org/NorthCarolina

Proud to join Gov. Stein and Leader Batch today to give remarks about how important the right to vote is and why we must protect it. Thank you, @NC_Governor, for vetoing this harmful legislation and always fighting to protect our vote. #ncpol #ncga

Yesterday I spoke at a press conference marking the 61st anniversary of the Voting Rights Act. Republican leadership in the General Assembly continues rolling back access to the ballot. But enough is enough. The voices and votes of North Carolinians will not be silenced.

“But to me, in November, the electorate speaks — and so if you don’t like what the electorate is saying, then coming in November and December and thwarting what they’re trying to do — I just don’t agree with. I don’t think that’s good government." #ncpol newsobserver.com/news/politi…

We are much too close to the general election to still be tweaking the rules. North Carolina's elections are safe and secure. Further efforts to change the rules in the middle of the campaign only undermine confidence in our results. #ncpol #ncga wral.com/news/nccapitol/elec…
