In just one week

  One stop early voting in North Carolina begins in exactly one week, folks. That means we have a very limited amount of time left before North Carolinians begin casting their ballots at the polls. And with so much on the line — from safeguarding reproductive freedom to protecting So…

We cannot wake up on November 9 with any regrets.

  When I kicked off this campaign, I promised this team and North Carolina that we would work harder than we ever have to turn our state blue. I don’t want any of us to wake up on November 9 with regrets. We need to know we gave it our all, made the best decisions possible with the i…

Mental health matters

  Folks — More than ever before, mental health is a hot-button issue. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the mental health crisis for our students, educators, and families — and its impact is still felt today. If someone hasn’t said it to you today, I’ll say it — your mental health mat…

Building on our hard work

  Happy LGBTQ History Month! The month of October is not only a time to celebrate LGBTQ history and reflect on past accomplishments, but to work together to meet today’s issues with action. Because of the trailblazers who have proudly stood up and made their voices heard, we’ve made i…

$5

  Hey there — In a moment, we’re going to ask you to pitch in $5, the price of a cup of coffee (or tea!), to help us re-elect Deborah and protect our Democratic House majority. But first, let us explain why your donation matters so much. One $5 donation gives our campaign the resourc…

Coffee?

  Hi folks — Deborah here. If you’re like me, you’re finding it hard to believe that it’s already October and Election Day is just five weeks away. As I’m sure you know, there’s so much at stake this November — the right to choose, climate justice, gun safety reform, and even Social S…

I am humbly asking you to donate $10 to help flip this seat and expand our majority.

  First and foremost, I want to say thank you to everybody who has supported our grassroots campaign. I am so grateful to the more than 100,000 people who have helped us get to where we are — less than 6 weeks from making history. It is humbling. The truth is I’m reaching out with a …

What if we told you

Donald Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Lauren Boebert visited our state last weekend to rally their right-wing base
