Safe Seats. Deaf Ears.

R+25. The system decided the winner before you voted. Your senator doesn't have to listen. Here's where that puts us.

Issue 01

Public Education

Our schools are underfunded and everyone knows it. Teachers are leaving. Class sizes are growing. And your tax dollars are being funneled to private schools with zero accountability.

The Opportunity Scholarship voucher program will cost $6.5 billion over the next decade. 92% of that money is going to families whose kids were already in private school. The expansion passed without any increase in teacher pay.

NC ranks dead last in per-pupil spending. 28 rural counties have zero or one private school to even use a voucher at.

what I'll do:

Force accountability on every school taking public money. Freeze the expansion until we fund the schools we already have.

Healthcare Access

You shouldn't have to choose between your health and your bills. But the state is making that choice harder.

Medicaid providers are cutting services because the state won't fund them properly. Reimbursement rates were slashed because the legislature can't pass a budget.

People are losing access to therapy, pharmacy benefits, and primary care. You deserve a healthcare system that actually works.

what I'll do:

Make the legislature fund what they already promised. Fix Medicaid so your doctor can afford to stay.

Follow the Money

Corporate profits are up. Your bills are up. Your wages? Not so much. That's a choice. And you're paying for it.

Duke Energy made $4.4 billion in profit last year. A 61% jump. Then the General Assembly passed a law shifting $24.8 million in energy costs off industrial users and onto residential customers. Your electric bill is subsidizing corporations.

Tax breaks and incentives go out the door, but nobody checks whether the jobs showed up, whether wages improved, whether the community saw any benefit at all. No clawbacks. No audits. No receipts.

what I'll do:

Turn the lights on. Public database of every incentive deal. What was promised. What was delivered. No more blank checks.

Cost of Living

Everything costs more. Your paycheck hasn't budged.

Groceries are up. Rent keeps climbing. Childcare costs more than some people's mortgages. And now property tax reassessments are hitting homeowners who haven't moved in decades. Not because they got richer, but because the market did.

Families are getting squeezed from every direction, and the people in Raleigh are busy cutting corporate taxes instead of helping.

what I'll do:

Expand property tax relief so reassessments don't push you out. Make childcare deductible. Stop letting Raleigh treat it like a luxury.
