Today I voted to establish a Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th attack on the Capitol
Congress has an obligation to investigate this attack, and today’s vote is an important step in our efforts to protect our democratic institutions.
National Science Foundation (NSF) for the Future Act
Great news—my bipartisan legislation to establish and fund technology research at institutions of higher education passed the House last night as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF) for the Future Act. I am especially excited to be leading this piece of legislation as the representative of much of the Research Triangle area, home to […]
Documented Dreamers
Documented Dreamers grow up in the United States and are American in every way except on paper. I’m honored to lead a letter in Congress to protect Documented Dreamers from aging out and becoming vulnerable to deportation. We must ensure that these talented young people and their families are treated with dignity and respect. I’m […]
NC State Baseball Team
Good luck to the NC State baseball team as they take on Vanderbilt this afternoon. The Wolfpack is one win away from reaching the College World Series championship series. Go Pack!
Tune in today at 5:15 p.m. to watch President Biden give remarks from Raleigh.
Fort Bragg Bill
Great news — the House and Senate passed my bipartisan Fort Bragg bill. Consolidating Fort Bragg into one judicial district is commonsense for North Carolinians. This legislation will ease the burden of traveling miles to Durham, Greensboro, or Winston-Salem to resolve court matters and instead have the opportunity to be resolved nearby. This will benefit […]
Election Reform
H.R.1 is a transformative package to make elections fairer and voting more convenient and accessible. Election reform isn’t about political parties, it’s about voters and ensuring their voices are heard. That’s why I voted for HR1. It’s time for the Senate to do the same #ForThePeople.

Happy Father’s Day!
Wishing a Happy Father’s Day to all fathers, uncles, grandfathers and father figures. I’m especially thankful for my dad. He always treated me with honesty and respect. Key life lessons.
Today we honor and observe Juneteenth, the oldest continuous celebration commemorating the end of slavery in the United States.
Juneteenth is a day of reflection and rejoicing. In the North Carolina State Legislature, I celebrated Juneteenth with my friend, Rep. Larry Womble, who passed away last year. Larry spent his life advocating for racial justice and education equality in North Carolina, and our community misses him dearly. I hope to carry on Larry’s legacy […]
