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 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.

My name is Jamie Ager. I'm a father, husband, farmer, and proud son of Western NC. And I figured, if I'm gonna run for Congress, I should introduce myself and tell you why I'm running.
