Proud of my team

Friends, Duke Energy's coal ash waste has plagued our state for decades.   Last week, North Carolina reached a settlement with Duke Energy that will require the company to dig up almost 80 million tons of coal ash -- the largest coal ash clean-up in American history.   I am so proud of the p…

Did you see Josh's email?

Friends,   Did you see Josh's email this morning?   We are just 38 donations short of our end-of-year goal, and we could really use your help to put us over the top.   Shadowy, special interest super PACs are preparing to dump millions into this race - and we need to show them that we are…

Josh & Josh

Friends,   Two Joshes.   Two Democratic Attorneys General elected in 2016 in states that voted for Donald Trump — the only two.    Josh Stein, Attorney General here in North Carolina, and Josh Shapiro, Pennsylvania's AG, have a lot more in common than a shared first name.    Both have b…

an early holiday gift

Friends,   Last month, AG Josh Stein made headlines across the country when he answered a scam call for an audience member at his speech in Charlotte.   He told the caller that he was “breaking the law” -- and the caller quickly hung up.   But Josh can’t be around for every scam call or r…
