Jan. 22nd marked the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade, a Supreme Court case that assured women they had the constitutional right to make their own health care decisions. However, that right has since been consistently and severely threatened. #ncpol #roevwade #reproductiverights

Since the first Leandro ruling, a generation of North Carolinians have graduated, gotten jobs, and started sending their own kids to school. Yet NCGA Republicans still haven't fully funded our schools. We can't afford to delay any longer. #ncpol #ncga #leandro #nc

Open enrollment in the ACA marketplace ends TODAY and there has been a drastic decline in enrollment nationally as subsidies have expired. Republican U.S. Senate candidate Michael Whatley supports harmful healthcare cuts and continues to put profits over people. #ncpol #nc

“But it is troubling that a legislator who chairs the House Election Law Committee and who seeks a seat on the Supreme Court did not understand the plain language of these statutes.” said Bob Hall.

It took NC Republicans less than a month to pass Trump's gerrymandered maps, but it's taken them nearly 30 years to fully fund our schools. We’re sick and tired of our leaders putting politics over people. #ncpol #nced #ncga #fundpublicschools

These 4 stand out on team Trump because their failures have been so public. Who would you fire first? The one who ignored the Constitution, the one who used FBI funds for his girlfriend, the one who put US pilots in danger, or the one who's putting kids at risk of disease?

The ACA tax credits have expired. The average North Carolinian enrollee is expected to pay $672 more annually for the same health insurance plan they currently have, with even greater increases expected for rural residents. Republicans are to blame. #ncpol #ncga #acataxcredits

The Trump administration's cuts to clean energy credits threaten NC jobs and raises power bills significantly. "North Carolina is a leader in clean energy and now millions of family-sustaining jobs are at risk." #ncpol #ncga #cleanenergy

Going into the new year, we must remember the words of Daquan Love when the continuing the fight for a progressive future, "We will not be silent, we will not back down, and we will not be turned around." Happy New Year! #ncpol #ncga #newyear #fy #politics

Instead of passing a state budget, prioritizing increasing teacher pay, and funding public schools, NCGA Republicans are choosing to play political games and surpress voters via shameful congressional map rigging. #ncpol #ncga #gerrymandering #redistricting #nc #teachers #nced

This Raleigh mom reminds us that Medicaid is often the only thing letting families enjoy the normal joyful moments of life instead of spending every second worried about how to pay a hospital bill. #ncpol #townhall #biguglybill #medicaid #raleigh

Our democracy is built on the idea that voters choose their representatives, not the other way around. NCGA Republicans are undermining our democracy by promising to let MAGA cherry-pick their own voters, at a great disservice to the people of North Carolina. #ncpol #ncga

Republican Micheal Whatley, Trump-appointed “recovery czar” for western NC, has done absolutely nothing to help NCians affected by the Hurricane Helene. He has failed western North Carolina and we must continue to hold him accountable. #ncpol #ncga #whatley #hurricanehelene #wnc

Rural hospitals are in danger due to harmful federal Medicaid cuts. Many rural hospitals have closed or are at a high risk of closing. More than 300 rural hospitals could be at risk of closure if current budget cuts move forward. #ncpol #medicaid #ncga
