re: my mid-month deadline

    John — I’m writing with an urgent message about North Carolina’s future. This is the moment when Democrats everywhere need to stand together. Women’s rights, LGBTQ+ rights, and even our schools are under threat — and radical Republicans want to change the rules of our elections to…

Hands off our voting rights.

This is a crisis moment.    John — Last week, Roy sounded the alarm on Republicans’ threat to voting rights in North Carolina. The GOP-controlled legislature recently passed dangerous anti-voter legislation that Roy VETOED. But now, Republicans are planning to OVERRIDE his veto. We al…

Another month, still no budget.

The legislature needs to get to work for us.    John — While Republican legislators whiled away the summer trying to strip away North Carolinians’ rights, we STILL don’t have a budget set for the state. What does that mean? No Medicaid Expansion. No raises for teachers or other state …

I’m sounding the alarm.

Voting rights are under attack.    There is a critical threat facing North Carolina, and I want you to hear about it from me. I hope you’ll take a few minutes to read this longer email and then donate what you can to help me fight back. John, we cannot for one second overlook the on…

SIGN ON to support rural health centers!

Every one of us deserves access to health care.    John — Roy’s spent his entire tenure as governor fighting to make health care more affordable and accessible because he knows that every one of us deserves the care we need to stay healthy. But in rural areas of NC, hospitals have bee…

3 things you need to know, John...

Thank you so much.

    John, I cannot thank you enough. Our team asked a lot of you in August. You stepped up when radical Republicans attacked LGBTQ+ North Carolinians and again when they threatened voting rights. You clearly know that your grassroots support can make a difference, and once again, you …

We can’t afford to fall short!    Hi John, we’ll keep this quick. We have just a few hours to go before we hit our August fundraising deadline. Our plans for this fall depend on raising $50,000 by midnight tonight, but it’s looking like we might come up short. That could put us at a h…

I’m endorsing Josh Stein to be our next Governor

He’s ready to do the job.    John — Twenty-two years ago, when I was North Carolina’s Attorney General, I chose a strong, smart leader named Josh Stein to head up our Consumer Protection team. Josh went from there to the State Senate and then eventually to serve his own two terms as A…

We won’t let them undermine North Carolina’s democracy.

We’ll stop the extremist assault on voting rights.    John — Earlier this month, Republican legislators passed a bill designed to make it harder for some North Carolinians to vote. A few days ago, I vetoed it. Now, I need your help to make sure we can secure voting rights for the futu…

Your freedom to vote is under attack.

We have to break the supermajorities to protect North Carolina’s democracy!    John, radical Republicans have made one thing very clear: They care far more about holding onto power than they do about upholding our constitutional rights. Roy recently vetoed a far-right proposal that is…

Pass a budget.

Late last night, Raleigh Republicans changed the rules to win future NC elections.

What a disgrace.    John, The GOP-controlled legislature just achieved what they’ve aimed to do for years — make it harder to vote for people they think will likely vote Democratic. Republicans passed this bill late last night because they know that their sinister plot to disenfranchi…

Anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination returns to North Carolina

Thanks to the GOP.    John, Republican legislators just pushed through a slew of legislation enshrining the right to discriminate against LGBTQ+ North Carolinians. I vetoed their bills, but the GOP used their one-vote supermajorities to pass them anyway. We have to defeat the Republic…

This is a short email — but it has an important message

We must save our democracy.   John, Today’s Republican Party has proven that they will put party over country at every opportunity. Partisan gerrymandering has given extreme right-wingers outsized power — and Republican legislators here in NC intend to consolidate that power by changing…

Battleground

Grassroots support is the key to victory.    North Carolina needs you, John. Our state is set to be one of the TOP battlegrounds in the 2024 elections. The GOP basically MUST carry NC to win the presidency — and races down the ballot are already Republican targets, too. Democratic can…

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.
