THE BEST ORGANIZERS IN THE COUNTRY. LFG.

Charlotte Clymer @charlotteclymer.bsky.social · Jun 29

Thom Tillis is retiring, which means we probably pick up that seat with exceptional organizing (North Carolina has exceptional organizers, among the best in the country), so at least there's a spot of good news.

I'm not worried about receiving health care at the VA. I know the vast majority of VA health care professionals are fully committed to treating all veterans. I'm worried about how Trump's executive order normalizes retribution against anyone who doesn't align with him and his followers.

This is Tillis begging for the budget reconciliation bill to pass. He is perfectly fine letting children,people with disabilities, seniors, and millions more die from SNAP and Medicaid cuts. Action: Call him relentlessly about this &tell your friends and family to call their senators and reps #ncpol

Per NCSBE counsel and Chairman Francis De Luca, certificate of election for Riggs will be issued immediately after the federal court's seven-day stay ends on May 12th. This will happen administratively, so no new meeting needed from NCSBE. This puts Riggs' swearing in on or around May 13th.
