A Democratic Congressman just retired in North Carolina in a swing district that Democrats can win...if we have the right candidate.
This Thursday evening, we'd like to introduce you to Erica Smith, the progressive who instantly became the frontrunner when she declared her candidacy.
Erica worked grueling dawn-to-dusk hours on her family's farm growing up -- allowing her to appeal to rural and urban constituencies alike while representing much of this congressional district for three terms in the State Senate.
She's a rising star.
Erica's spent her life fighting for small communities and farmers -- while challenging CEOs, Wall Street bankers, and corrupt politicians. She's the rare Democrat running for Congress making a progressive economic case to farmers and rural voters…and it’s working!
This Thursday, Erica will speak with PCCC members about how she’s bringing rural voters to enthusiastically support progressive policies such as Medicare for All, universal broadband, and even a Green New Deal. You don’t want to miss it!
Erica is a teacher, engineer, and minister and has spent much of her life fighting for small communities and farmers -- while challenging CEOs, Wall Street bankers, and corrupt politicians, and she is a fierce defender of reproductive rights.
As a state senator, Erica fought corporations polluting her community with industrial toxins and went head-to-head with payday lenders trying to trick workers and families.
If you can’t make it but want to support her campaign for Congress, chip in to Erica’s campaign here.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
