This month, we honor the power of visibility, the courage of our LGBTQ+ members, and the joy of unapologetic pride.
We’re proud to stand with you — not just in June, but always. 🏳️‍🌈

#MemorialDay isn’t just a long weekend—it’s a moment to remember the heroes whose courage, sacrifice, and bravery gave us the freedom we share today.

To the fallen—and to the families who carry on in their absence—thank you. 🇺🇸

The Big"Beautiful" Bill passed the House this morning. Now's the time to call your Senators, even if they won't listen to reason.

Here in NC, unfortunately we have two that are Trump apologists and sycophants. But that's not going to stop us.

We were incredibly honored to be recognized as Chapter of the Year, so thank you to President Zach Finley and Awards Chair Mackenzie Reedybacon for the recognition, and congratulations to all the other #YoungDemocrats that received (and absolutely deserved) recognition this year!

What an amazing @ydnc.bsky.social Convention! We met so many focused, hard-working, and motivated #YoungDemocrats that are doing the work that needs to be done in the Old North State (too many to name here)!

A big strong guy, really big man, tears in his eyes, he came up to me and he said, "Sir... Thank you. Masterful gambit, sir."

Thank you Michelle Antoine of the Johnston County School Board for doing the right thing! 👍

This is what happens on X when you stand up for trans youth and teachers, y'all.

They want a bigot fascist dictator so bad. #ncpol

For now, we can breathe a sigh of tentative relief as the #johnstoncounty BoE is tabling the rollback of protections for #LGBTQ+ students and faculty.

We will keep an eye on this one, but this is why public advocacy is so important. Thank you to our VP Ben Chapman for your work on this 💙 #ncpol

Public pressure is WORKING. The policies that were set to be rolled back tonight that protect LGBTQ students and staff is now being sent back to committee!!!

Thank you to everyone who pitched a fit about this, and let's keep the pressure up!

Stay vigilant 💪💙

We had a great canvass today, doing our part to fight against injustice going on in the #ncsupremecourt race right now. We even had first time canvassers, and they absolutely killed it! Let's keep the momentum and continue doing what we can to ensure democracy stays alive and well in JoCo!
