John,

Since first announcing our historic campaign for Labor Commissioner, our movement has received endorsements from leaders, groups, and organizations across North Carolina. 

With less than 24 hours until Early Voting begins, we have a chance to elect a Labor Commissioner who will advocate for workers’ rights. We’re in the final stretch of an election cycle that will impact every aspect of our lives for generations to come. 

Make a plan to vote and implement it. 

Here’s what INDY Week had to say this morning: 

“Berry’s decision not to run for re-election leaves this seat open for the first time in two decades. Democrat Jessica Holmes is the obvious choice to fill it, and should she win, she’ll be the first African American ever elected to statewide office (along with Holley, we hope). But this election isn’t just about breaking barriers for Holmes, something she’s used to as the youngest person ever elected to the Wake County Board of Commissioners. It’s about restoring regulatory oversight and fighting to get North Carolina’s workforce better protections and pay. That starts by investigating and enforcing wage-theft violations, which Berry was notorious lax on.” 

Thank you for your hard work in getting us this far. These incredible organizations know that Jessica is the most qualified candidate on the ballot for Labor Commissioner. 

- Team Holmes
