Medicaid covers more than 3 million North Carolinians in all, including 1.3 million just in rural counties. Medicaid also pays for 60% of all nursing home stays in our state, and almost half of all childbirths.

Cutting Medicaid would be absolutely devastating to North Carolina.

President Trump out on a golf cart while people's retirements go up in flames.

That may end up being the most enduring image of his presidency.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

How are #Repub and #DOGE policies affecting you? Would you help me know more about real-life impacts of these illegal & destructive policies? If you give permission in the survey, your story (without your name) will help inform my work and plan initiatives that we can all join. #WeDoNotYield

Recklessness will not get us to a revitalized government, but neither will excessive caution and addiction to procedure.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

COUP!
Elon Musk—an unchecked, unelected oligarch—is yanking wires out of the machinery that powers American life—and there’s no telling how many people will get hurt.
Will Elon Musk Do to the Federal Government What He Did to Twitter?

C'mon @nytimes.com and other media. Call it what it is...a COUP! An unelected multi-billionaire and those allowing it are stealing our democracy, our government. #Resistance www.nytimes.com/2025/02/03/u...

Celebrating the District 32 swearing in of NC House Representative Bryan Cohn in Henderson NC. Huge enthusiasm from his supporters and us fellow NC House Dems about how he will be a fighter and strong voice for Granville and Vance Counties, standing with us to build #NorthCarolinaStrong.
