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.

This is not public safety. It’s chaos.

We cannot have secret police. We have accountability, due process, and the rule of law.

Everyone involved in this violence should be held accountable. Kristi Noem should resign or be removed.

This morning I had the chance to reflect of the life and work of a great man at the annual MLK Breakfast in Hendersonville.

Folks remember Dr. King for his racial justice work, and for good reason – but I also like to remember that he was a real fighter for working people. 🧵

It was great to be in Clay County today! My favorite part of campaigning is meeting with and hearing from folks all across Western NC.

There are many perspectives, but we're all united by common values — love for WNC, love for our country, and a desire to do better.

It was a beautiful morning in Transylvania County! Amy and I were so glad to drive down.

We're continuing to visit every corner of Western North Carolina — and I look forward to meeting you and earning your vote soon!

Earlier today, Chuck Edwards had another opportunity to join a bipartisan group to extend health care subsidies to tens of thousands of people in his district. He chose not to.

Trust in our government is low — and understandably so. Congress must act to fight corruption within itself.

I'm so grateful to all of my friends and neighbors across Western NC for joining and supporting our campaign.

Together, we'll keep building a campaign we can all be proud of!

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.

We're over in Canton for the Christmas parade tonight and I'm putting the final touches on the float the boys helped me build! Hope to see y'all out there!

Great visit with Black Mountain Mayor Mike Sobol and Vice Mayor Archie Pertiller Jr. today! I'm honored and excited to earn the endorsement of these two legends of Western North Carolina.

It's official — I'm on the ballot running to serve NC-11! With only 90 days until the Democratic Primary in March, now is the time to do as my son Levi says and "lock in and go win" this thing!

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.
