The rising cost of living is impacting everyone. Things like housing, child care, health care, utilities, groceries, and other essentials have been getting more expensive each year.
Working 40 hours a week should be enough to have a good life, not barely scrape by.

After Helene, politicians flew in from D.C., used the devastation as a backdrop for campaign photo ops, and made big promises — promises we're still waiting on them to keep.
More than a year later, Chuck Edwards hasn't delivered. Western NC is tired of waiting.

Governor Hunt was a giant of North Carolina politics whose time in office truly made our state a better place. Amy and I are sending well wishes and love to the Hunt family and to all who knew him and were touched by his lifetime of service.

83,000 residents of NC-11 depend on the ACA – and right now, they could see costs go up by as much as 300% in 2026. I'm really frustrated to see Rep. Edwards won't even support a vote on extending the subsidies, and I know I'm not the only one who feels that way.

House Republican centrists help Democrats defy Mike Johnson on ACA in stunning revolt
The move ensures a House vote on extending Affordable Care Act tax credits for three years.

Western North Carolina is the most beautiful place in the world, and I'm so proud to call it home. We deserve a representative who is proud to be from here — and who will put WNC over political games in Washington.

Did you know that North Carolina is the nation's second largest producer of Christmas trees? Nearly all of those are grown right here in the western part of our state. Buying a locally grown tree is a great way to support small farms and local agriculture! 🎄

I had a great day in Yancey County with a legend Johnny Deyton who took me to visit small businesses and farms, to tour some damage of the Cane River from Hurricane Helene, and had some fellowship with a lively crew at lunch.

I'm grateful to have the support of Clyde Mayor Jim Trantham!
Mayor Trantham has led Clyde through some tough times. He knows all too well how important it is that we have representatives who will stick up for Western NC.

Veterans Day reminds us of the sacrifices made to protect our freedoms. I'm proud of my family's deep history of service, including my brothers — Kevin, a Specialist in the US Army, and Eric, a Commander in the US Navy. Today, we honor them and all who have served our country.

What a great evening out in Leicester with my friend Terri Wells and my brother Eric talking about farm and food policy! I'm always grateful for the opportunity to talk about how our food system impacts every aspect of our lives and how we can make it work better. #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC

I couldn't tell you what kind of sense it makes sending about $40 Billion in aid to Argentina when we could easily spend that money here at home repairing damage from Hurricane Helene. But I can tell you that when I'm in DC, I'll put Western NC first every time.

During Helene, the water level here at Ashworth Creek was over my head.
Now, over a year later, time has passed but the scars and debris remain — and work needs to be done.
But Republicans in Washington are more focused on building ballrooms than building bridges here in WNC.

Mayor Phillips is a strong advocate for not only Sylva, but Jackson County and our region as a whole. He knows that we're building a campaign that folks from every corner of Western NC can get behind. #NC11 #WNC

Great day with a group of local farmers discussing agriculture issues, getting to know each other and hearing different perspectives.
We may not raise the same crops or livestock, but we are all facing challenges. What we can do is come together and work toward a better future!
