NCGOP Convention
This weekend, the NCGOP holds their convention. The NCGOP agenda is just the Trump Agenda. And that’s one of extremism, political violence, and ripping away our rights. That’s what’s at stake in this election, and why it’s so crucial we defeat Donald Trump and other down ballot candidates in November.
Public Education System
Seventy years ago this month, the U.S. Supreme Court declared that segregated schools were unconstitutional. Today, NC Republicans are determined to take taxpayer money away from public schools and spend it on vouchers for unregulated private schools that favor the wealthy. We must elect leaders who believe in our public education system.
Happy Mother’s Day!
My mother is a constant inspiration to me. I’m grateful to her and all the moms who inspire, love, and sacrifice every day to give their kids a better life.
Wake County Teacher of the Year

Teacher Appreciation Week
In Junior High School, Mrs. Pass instilled in me the values that make our country special: Individual freedom, equal opportunity, and personal liberty. She taught me that these values were part of our nation’s promise to make people’s lives better. And that promise became my life’s work.
Congratulations to the class of 2024!
I am so proud of everyone who graduated today from NC State, NC Central, Saint Augustine’s, and Wake Tech.
Affordable Connectivity Program
More than 900,000 North Carolinians rely on the Affordable Connectivity Program to access affordable internet service. Despite broad support, Republican leadership continues to block funding for this essential program that bridges the digital divide.
Deadly Shooting
Thank you, President Joe Biden, for supporting the families of these heroic fallen officers.
NC’s Anti-Abortion Law
Republicans are dead set on weaponizing health care to control women and their bodies. I’m glad this court struck down some of the restrictions in NC’s anti-abortion law that would make it harder for women to access mifepristone.
Visit to Watson Institute at Brown University
I loved my time as an undergrad at Brown University, so it was tons of fun to be welcomed back to talk about my journey and time in Congress.
