a few thoughts on the gun violence epidemic

Will you join me in taking a stand?    John — as of August 1st, more than 25,000 Americans have died this year as a result of gun violence. More than a thousand of the victims were children or teens. We’ve suffered more than 420 mass shootings including at least 20 K-12 school shootin…

A message on the anniversary of the VRA:

Together, we will defend our democracy.    Hello John, As we mark the 58th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act, I couldn’t let today pass without reaching out. The VRA didn’t end voter suppression, but it was a monumental step in the right direction. It banned literacy tests and help…

1 question on the budget

RESPONSE REQUIRED: We need at least 500 submissions by midnight.    Republican legislators have FAILED to do their jobs and pass a budget for NC. Not only does this delay hold up critical funds for raises for hardworking state employees, but it has also jammed up our Medicaid Expansio…

It’s time to get a budget passed and deliver Medicaid Expansion.

Let’s get this done. Now.    John, It was great to announce this spring that Republicans had finally come to the table to help pass long overdue Medicaid Expansion. Getting this done and improving health care options for our state has been a priority as governor. But part of their dea…

Republicans are terrified that they can’t win in a fair election. That’s why they’re trying to STEAL power away from the people.

We have to fight back.    John — FIRST: A former Democratic representative switched parties, giving the GOP one-seat supermajorities in BOTH chambers of the General Assembly. THEN: Republicans used their ill-gotten majorities to push through an extreme abortion ban and other radical l…
