Yesterday, our state has lost a great leader and champion with the passing of Gov. Jim Hunt. Throughout his political career and especially during his four terms as Governor, Gov. Hunt championed women’s rights and access to education for all.
We mourn the loss of this true statesman.

We deserve to have a government that defends our rights, rather than curtails them. Our fundamental right to bodily autonomy--and that includes abortion--is non-negotiable.
In 2026, let's elect more progressive, pro-choice women who will fight extremists to protect our human rights.

NC Republicans are too busy cowering to Trump and plotting to steal congressional seats to PASS A BUDGET FOR OUR STATE. Absolutely unconscionable. Women deserve better and can do better.
It’s been over 150 days and Republicans still haven’t passed a budget. Instead of doing their jobs, they clocked out for the rest of the year.

Three years after SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade and abortion rights in the Southeast have been decimated. North Carolina is the only state with abortion access after 6 weeks, and that's nowhere near enough.
Abortion is health care and we are dedicated to supporting candidates who will fight for it.

I am outraged by the continued and expanding deployment of U.S. Border Patrol and ICE agents in North Carolina. This is not law enforcement—it is state-sanctioned intimidation of our communities, and it cannot be tolerated.

Our neighbor South Carolina is advancing a draconian abortion ban that would criminalize ALL abortions unless the pregnant person's life is at risk. Folks who get an abortion and anyone who helps them could face up to 30 YEARS IN PRISON.
Abortion is health care and this bill is an egregious attack.

OF COURSE THEY ARE: The GOP is now demanding new abortion restrictions be tied to extending Affordable Care Act subsidies because OF COURSE THEY ARE. This would amount to a "backdoor abortion ban," gutting access to abortion care for millions.

New: Women candidates, running on affordability, powered many of Dems’ big wins last night. Aside from the VA and NJ gov races, women made up a large % of those who flipped VA House seats + set a record for women’s representation in that chamber 19thnews.org/2025/11/demo...
Women running on affordability powered Democrats’ night of victories
Democratic women proved effective messengers in an election focused on the rising cost of living and the effects of Trump’s second term.

Last night showed that voters chose democracy. Despite relentless gerrymandering, voter suppression tactics, and anti-democracy propaganda, progressives won big across the country. In North Carolina and across the nation, voters delivered for progressive candidates.

Thank you @jeffjacksonnc.bsky.social for fighting for the 1.4 million North Carolinians who rely on SNAP! Here's an update from our AG:
Update: The Agriculture Department just told the court it will use its entire emergency fund over the next month to make 50% payments to every SNAP recipient.
My office is still reviewing the order to see what else we can do to help, but we all need to give extra support our local food pantries.
