We cannot allow this, John.

Sign on to stand with Roy >>>    John, North Carolina Republicans have abused our redistricting process to gain unfair power. Their district maps have been obvious partisan power grabs to give some voters more of a say than others and make it harder for Democratic candidates …

Republicans don’t want you to read this email.

They care about their power. Not our democracy.    John — last week, extremist GOP lawmakers in Raleigh again made their position clear. They care about their power. Not our democracy. First came their anti-democratic legislation designed to block some voters from having their ballots…

I get a lot of questions about this

what comes next for NC    John, I get a lot of questions from folks like you about what the 2024 elections mean for our state. My answer is that they mean everything. You’ve probably heard the phrase “the election of our lifetimes” before. It seems to get used just about every single …

a GOP election takeover

We see through this.    Here’s the deal: North Carolina Republicans know that their radical agenda is wrong for our state and that their candidates can’t compete on an even playing field. So they’ve passed legislation to RIG future elections to throw victory to their party. Their plan…

Mark Robinson’s shameful political stunt

It’s tragically ironic that someone with a long history of hate speech against Jewish people would take advantage of death and destruction in Israel for his own political purposes.    John, This is an important email about the political stunt Lt. Governor Mark Robinson just pulled. To…

Updating you on Republicans’ partisan power grab

John, don’t mistake this for “politics as usual.”    Today, Raleigh Republicans used their ill-gotten, one-seat supermajority to override Governor Cooper’s veto and push through dangerous anti-democracy legislation. Their new laws will make it harder for some North Carolinians to vote…

We can curb the gun violence epidemic. We must.

Protecting our kids is a top priority.    John — firearm deaths of children are spiking, and North Carolina’s kids are even more at risk. A new report recently showed that North Carolina was in the top five states with the biggest increases in gun-related deaths of children over the l…

Roy told President Biden...

Democrats CAN win our state!    John — North Carolina’s presidential elections have been decided by less than 3% in the last four elections. And 2020 was one of the closest presidential election outcomes in the country. We know that the 2024 race will be as competitive as it gets. But…

All eyes on North Carolina

Let’s show them what we can do!    16 electoral college votes in the tight race for the White House. 14 Congressional seats in the closely divided House of Representatives. The most competitive governor’s race in the country. A one-seat supermajority in the state legislature. All of t…

My mom was a teacher.

I’ve seen the lengths they go for our kids.    John, I know firsthand just how hard our public school educators here in North Carolina work for our kids. My mom was a teacher in NC public schools. I had the benefit of education in our public schools as did my children. I know that stu…

Here’s why I’m calling for a Nonpartisan Redistricting Committee:

Republicans are redistricting again.    John, GOP leaders ​​in Raleigh are about to start the redistricting process. If this feels like déjà vu to you, it’s because we’ve been here before time and time again. Republicans have tried over and over to gerrymander our state’s legislative …

Can Roy count on you, John?

$50,000 to defeat the radical NC GOP.    John: Republican legislators have made it clear that they care about one thing only. Power. They’re determined to hold onto their supermajorities by any means necessary. That includes attempts to restrict voting access, gerrymandering, and chan…

what you NEED to know

Are you ready to vote for Democrats, John?

Yes or No.    John, defeating Republican extremism here in North Carolina and across the country won’t be easy. In our state, elections often come down to the smallest of margins. North Carolina is poised to be a key presidential battleground ahead of 2024. We also know that in presid…

We see Republican extremism for what it is.    John — It’s no exaggeration to say that the 2024 elections are make or break for our state. Either we elect Democratic candidates who will build upon the progress we’ve made, or we let far-right extremists roll back our most fundamental r…

regarding Medicaid Expansion

I’m furious — and you should be, too.

They broke their promise. They have to go.    I'm furious, John. Republican legislators are turning their backs on North Carolinians. They agreed to expand Medicaid. We were all there for the signing ceremony at the Executive Residence. We worked for years to make it happen. And now, …

Brutally dishonest Republican scheme to stall Medicaid Expansion

It’s disgraceful.    John — yet again, the GOP-controlled legislature is betraying North Carolinians by threatening to break their promise to expand Medicaid. After missing the deadline to pass a budget for our state, Republicans have spent the summer arguing in back rooms over far-ri…
