My opponent Michael Whatley said again this week that grocery prices are down. People who actually buy groceries know that’s a lie. The erratic tariffs need to stop.

When I was Governor, we recruited thousands of great paying clean energy jobs, including the Toyota battery plant in the Triad.

Today’s announcement builds on that progress.

Our veterans stood up for us. We all need to stand up for them.

This morning in Durham I gave a heartfelt thanks to brave veterans who fought to protect our freedom. We owe them a deep debt of gratitude.

Happy Veterans Day!

I grew up working on the farm. I know how hard our farmers work to get food on our tables. They are the backbone of our economy, and I refuse to stand by while erratic tariffs hurt their livelihoods.

Working families are struggling and any deal that lets health care costs continue to skyrocket is unacceptable.

North Carolina farmers deserve better.

North Carolina farmers are hurting. Today, I heard from some of them about how reckless tariffs are driving up their prices while reducing their export markets.

My opponent cheers on this trade war while our farmers and North Carolinians who buy their products suffer.

Hardworking North Carolinians deserve health insurance they can afford.
November 4, 2025 at 8:40 PM
The GOP's Big Beautiful Bill is cutting health care for millions of working Americans while helping big corporations get rich.

That's what Michael Whatley calls a "huge win."
November 3, 2025 at 11:50 PM
Millions are going to pay more for health insurance next year because Washington would rather give tax breaks to the wealthy. Shameful.

We’re one year out from Election Day.

Let’s get to work.

Starting today, putting food on the table will be much harder for about 1.4 million North Carolinians. Without assistance from SNAP, children will go hungry and families will struggle.
November 1, 2025 at 3:10 PM
Today, hundreds of thousands of North Carolinians will begin open enrollment for their ACA health plans and find that their premiums have skyrocketed. It must be fixed.
November 1, 2025 at 1:00 PM
As your Senator, I will fight for affordable health care, clean air and water, lower costs, and so much more.

Will you pitch in to help get me to the Senate?

Happy Halloween from Cooper HQ 🎃

Extreme Republicans in Washington are going to do everything in their power to stop us from flipping this seat — because they know we can win.
October 30, 2025 at 4:00 PM
Prices keep going up, and we are more divided than ever. We need real solutions that make life easier for working families and bring our country together.
October 29, 2025 at 3:05 PM
We cannot accept the fact that Washington is too broken to come together to feed hungry kids.
October 29, 2025 at 12:35 AM
Public servants should serve the public.

Too many elected officials serve their own interests — their political party or their personal power — first.
October 28, 2025 at 6:10 PM
We need to be making things more affordable, even your Halloween candy.
October 27, 2025 at 9:35 PM
North Carolinians are already struggling with rising prices. Extreme policies like these tariffs are making it even harder for small businesses to stay afloat.

My opponent sees no problem, but I think we need action that makes life more affordable — not more expensive.
