Progress NC Action

Progress NC Action was founded in 2011 to promote public policies that make NC a fairer, healthier, more equitable state.
For many North Carolinians, this week's news feed was filled with headlines and videos that were heartbreaking, frightening, and enraging. But there was resistance and solidarity at every turn. Above all, there were helpers.

Trump promised to lower prices for American families, but instead, he’s turned the season of "giving back" into the season of "getting by." #ncpol #economy #thanksgiving

North Carolinians stand up for each other. Thanks to all who are showing up for our immigrant communities. We are stronger than the hate and fear they seek to spread. #nc #ncpol #standtogether

“We’ve seen masked, heavily armed agents in paramilitary garb driving unmarked cars, targeting American citizens based on their skin color, racially profiling and picking up random people in parking lots and off of our sidewalks." #ncpol #ncgov #charlotte

Gov. Stein called lawmakers back for a special session to fix the lack of Medicaid funding. Republican leaders announced they will disobey that order, saying that the NC Medicaid crisis is not a real emergency. #ncpol #ncgov #medicaid

“More than 150,000 foreign-born residents live in our city, contributing billions to our economy and enriching every neighborhood with culture, hard work, and hope," said Sen. Theodros, responding to news that Border Patrol may begin operating in the Queen City. #ncpol #charlotte

A Charlotte couple making $85,000 a year will see their monthly health care bill jump from $601 to $2,515 starting in January. Republicans are making a choice to take away ACA credits, and it’s costing working North Carolina families thousands. #ncpol #costofliving #healthcare

At a time when it's already tough to make ends meet, the working class doesn't need politicians piling on more weight. #ncpol #costofliving #tariffs

To North Carolina's 600,000+ veterans-- thank you. Today we honor your courage, recognize your sacrifice, and rededicate ourselves to our shared purpose of building a more perfect union. Happy Veterans Day! #nc #veteransday

Gov. Stein made it clear, NC's Medicaid crisis is a manufactured one. The General Assembly caused this mess and only they can clean it up. He is summoning lawmakers back for an extra session in November to pass the funding that the state can't wait for any longer. #ncpol #ncgov

Tuesday's election results reminded Americans that we are still a country ruled by its people, not by a dictator. Voters came together and demanded change, flipping over 150 seats in North Carolina and many more nationwide. #ncpol #election #democracy

If you could tell your legislators one thing about rising costs, what would it be? Let us know, and you could be featured in a messaging campaign that we’re taking straight to Congress. #ncpol #tellyourstory

We must continue to show up, speak out, and vote in elections that determine who our representatives are in Raleigh & in D.C. and to restore a fair & independent judiciary in North Carolina. Change won’t happen instantly, but together we can build a more just future. #ncpol #FairCourtsNow

Trump está limitando los fondos de SNAP para aumentar la presión en la disputa por el cierre del gobierno. Un cierre que solo está ocurriendo porque los republicanos están tratando de aumentar los precios del seguro de salud. #ncpol #snap

On the night he intended to cut off SNAP funding, Trump threw a Great Gatsby themed party for his allies and donors. Just a reminder that the book was written to criticize the massive wealth & class divides of the 1920s that led to the Great Depression. #ncpol

Use your voice and your vote to elect mayors, town councils, county commissions, etc. who will choose people over profits, democracy over dictatorship. Make it clear to those in power, this isn't over. #ncpol #municipalelections

Good news! Thanks to lawsuits brought by AG Jeff Jackson and others, two federal judges ordered the Trump administration to pay for SNAP benefits. It's not yet clear how Trump will respond or if the potential payments would be full or partial. #ncpol

Trump is choosing to withhold SNAP funding for November. While Republicans continue to try to take away affordable health care, regular North Carolinians are stuck paying the price.

Doubling the cost of health insurance and cutting off food assistance on the SAME DAY. The Trump administration and the Republican-controlled Congress somehow keep finding ways to hit a new low. #ncpol #snap #insurance #marketplace #healthcare

"It's not my first rodeo," Rep. Don Davis told WTVD after his district was redrawn to favor a Republican next year. #ncpol

Republicans made it clear they are upending our district lines yet again not to serve the people, but to serve President Trump and their own political gain. #ncpol #breakingnews #ncga #gerrymandering
