Our Class of 2020: Leadership and Strength
Inspired by our young people and their hope for our future. The end of our high school seniors’ year wasn’t ideal, but our Class of 2020 showcased leadership and strength in doing what was best for our community. Congratulations, Class of 2020!
NC02 Heroes
Incredible to see this Cary student succeed and rise up to help our community. Thank you, Eboni Simone Hayes, for your commitment to your education and service as an essential worker. Congratulations on your many accomplishments!
National Gun Violence Awareness Day
On #NationalGunViolenceAwarenessDay, we remember and continue to mourn lives lost to senseless gun violence, including students, movie theater-goers, shoppers, parishioners, children in their homes, and so many more. I stand with @MomsDemand and @GiffordsCourage to fight for common-sense federal gun-safety laws in Congress. Together, we can prevent future gun-related deaths. #WearOrange
They are begging to be heard. We must listen. We must act.
The images and videos of violence we’ve seen from the past several days are difficult to watch, but essential to witness. The fight for justice and truth should never be stopped or silenced.

Happy Mother’s Day!
Sending love to all mothers. Thank you for raising us, inspiring us, and showing us what it means to love. #HappyMothersDay
National Nurses Day
In the NCGA, I was honored to have received North Carolina Nurses Association’s Legislator of the Year Award for my amendment requiring closer collaboration with medicine and nursing practices. Nurses are central to our health care delivery, and in Congress, I will continue to fight for our health care heroes.
Supporting our small businesses is more important than ever.
Fantastic to see Golden LEAF Foundation making another $125 million available in loans for our NC businesses. We must continue to help our local economies, entrepreneurs and workers. https://www.wraltechwire.com/2020/05/04/golden-leaf-offers-another-125m-in-covid-19-disaster-loans-for-small-businesses
