I grew up and currently live on my family’s farm and am very much a nature lover. We need to preserve our public lands for future generations so they too can enjoy and benefit from them. I intend to help protect them once I get to Congress.

We’ve seen massive shifts to the left in deep red districts in elections over the past few months. People are tired of the dysfunction in DC, tired of people they’ve elected not representing them, and tired of prices not getting better. Momentum is on our side. Go to our website and volunteer.

I just officially filed to run for Congress in NC13. We have an opportunity to effect major change. We need members of Congress who are willing and able to hold up their oath. This district deserves better representation than what it has now.

Wanted to just take a moment to wish all of you the happiest of Thanksgivings and say thank you so much to everyone for your support so far. I’m so incredibly thankful for all of you. We’re gonna do this. Enjoy!

Most of us have been prepping for Thanksgiving this week. Despite a pledge from the President to lower grocery prices on day one, things just keep getting more expensive. We gotta fix this system and stop pricing people out of basic necessities like food.

Last weekend I rode my bike the entire length of the district. Along the way I met some incredible people, all with similar concerns. Cost of living, healthcare costs, price of food, etc. Things have to change in DC, people need to be heard.

Thank you so much to the Democratic Women auxiliary of Johnston County Dems for having me at their Friendsgiving Potluck! It was a great time!

Had a great stop in Johnston County yesterday! Thank you to everyone who showed up! Today I’m continuing my trip across the district including a stop in Person County. Looking forward to it!

And I’m off! I’ll be uploading videos throughout the day as I make my way through the district. See you out there!

My father served in the Navy in WWII. Like so many, he stepped up to serve and protect the country that he loved. Today, we want to honor all the brave veterans who have answered the call to serve. Thank you for all that you have done.

Happy Veterans Day

Y’all, we are now in the longest government shutdown in U.S history. That’s unacceptable. Our representatives on both sides of the aisle need to sit down and solve this and get back to doing the country’s business, without making health insurance unaffordable.

Despite the successful lawsuit from multiple Attorneys General, SNAP benefits are still being disrupted and not fully funded. That’s unacceptable. We need to fully fund SNAP and end this shutdown while also ensuring that health insurance premiums won’t skyrocket.

Hunger does not care about your political affiliation. The fact is, SNAP benefits will be ending for the foreseeable future starting tomorrow. Chances are you know someone who will be affected by this.

Listed are some resources, please use them if needed.

“Farmers want a market not a bailout” I grew up on a farm, I live on a farm. And I’ve seen that the trade war with China is hurting farmers all over the district. Meanwhile we’re bailing out farmers in Argentina while ignoring our farmers at home.

The people of North Carolina deserve fair maps. Democracy deserves fair maps. The gerrymandering and redistricting of NC-1 disenfranchises voters, plain and simple. That ain’t right. The voters should choose their politicians, not the other way around.

Thank you to NC Secretary of State @elaine4nc.bsky.social for coming out to our event in Smithfield last week! Your presence means a lot!

So far in Congress, Brad Knott has spent more time thinking about running for higher office than he has about the folks back home in NC-13. That ain't right — and we deserve better.

It was my honor to attend the Bryant Family Reunion over the weekend! So much fun, fellowship, and history. Thank you to many friends for your hospitality and the invitation.

It was my honor to meet with pastors from across the region yesterday in Sanford! Truly rewarding to be in the presence of so many great leaders.

One of my favorite parts about campaigning so far has been meeting so many wonderful folks from all across the 13th district! I'm so proud to be running to serve my friends and neighbors in Congress. #NC13
