Prices have skyrocketed under Trump and Republicans, thanks to his tariffs, the war in Iran, and massive cuts to essential services.

Next Congress, Democrats’ #1 priority is bringing down the cost of living to make life more affordable for all Americans.

Today is Election Day!

Polling places in North Carolina are open until 7:30pm EST.

Make sure to cast your ballot and make your voice count!

With opportunity comes responsibility. It's something I think about every day as I fight for North Carolinians and the American people.

We have to keep doing the work to build the future our country deserves.

Trump always chickens out.

The President knows his policies are unpopular. When Democrats win the majority, he’ll be forced to back down.

The Trump admin and Republicans in Congress have forced 100,000 people in NC off Medicaid and willingly let the ACA tax credits expire. New work requirements in 2027 will leave even more without coverage.

Families should not have to sacrifice necessities to get the care they need.

It was great to attend the groundbreaking ceremony for Chapanoke, a new affordable housing development in Raleigh!

The #1 issue I hear about from my constituents is the rising cost of housing. I will keep working to make sure that the people who contribute to our community can afford to live here.

This Sunday, I celebrated Día de los Muertos with Revista Latina NC.

I was grateful to join our Latin American community in Raleigh to celebrate this beautiful tradition honoring our loved ones.

When Kathleen went to pick up her prescription, she was shocked to hear that her Medicare Part D plan was terminated.

Seniors should not be forced to go months without life-saving medication because of payment changes. I introduced a bill to give people like Kathleen a pathway to re-enroll.

Today, I met with parents, caregivers, and educators to discuss the rising costs of childcare.

The consensus was clear: families and providers need more resources to succeed - not less.

When Democrats win the majority, Trump will have nowhere to hide.

We will work to end the President’s war of choice in Iran, reverse Medicaid cuts, and lower costs for Americans.

Electricity costs have gone up more than twice as fast as the overall cost of living in North Carolina.

Electricity isn’t a luxury item. I will continue to push back against rate hikes and fight for affordable energy.

Congratulations to William Peace University for receiving nearly $3 million in Title III grant funding!

I had a great time on campus speaking with students about issues that matter most to them ahead of the midterm elections.

Our state's economic growth has been fueled by innovation, but much of this progress has been halted by tariffs and other disastrous policies by this administration. I was grateful for a meaningful dialogue w/ the Wake Forest Chamber of Commerce about how we can work together for small businesses.

Instead of delivering long-overdue justice to Camp Lejeune victims, Trump is dragging them into a political fight, threatening to withhold settlement money if Republicans lose in North Carolina.

Justice for Camp Lejeune victims isn't a partisan issue. Sick and grieving families have suffered enough

Americans paid an additional $310 for groceries in 2025.

The President’s cuts to care and food assistance are hurting Americans across the board. And Republicans in Congress have voted again and again for these cuts, knowing that they would raise your costs.

I’m proud to have earned a perfect score on the @humanrightscampaign scorecard! While LGBTQ+ rights are consistently under attack by Republicans in Congress, we defeated nearly every provision they pushed forward.

I will always fight for my LGBTQ+ constituents and defend their rights and dignity.

“Customers [are] getting less than what they were previously, even if their bills haven’t changed.”

Families and small businesses are paying the price for this economy as Trump and House Republicans refuse to put Americans first.

President Trump has cost NC-02 families more than $3,800 this year.

Despite his promises to end inflation and lower costs, North Carolina families are still paying for his broken promises.

Same grocery bill, smaller cart.

I visited Grand Asia Market in Raleigh to talk with owner Richard Chang about how reckless tariffs and high fuel prices are driving up costs for both families and small businesses.

Prices aren't rising by accident. Republicans have voted with Trump to raise the cost of healthcare, food, gas, and more.

I spoke about how I'm working to lower costs at my town hall Wednesday in West Raleigh. North Carolina deserves leaders who work for them, not against them.
