The groundbreaking photo op is standard. But what was uniquely delightful about attending this Genentech event was hearing about the pivotal role played by the NC Biotechnology Center in paving the way for the company’s selection of Holly Springs for its first new facility in 20 years.

SB611, which I filed with @NatalieforNC, would let people renew their license online twice in a row - saving up to 1M DMV appointments per year. Responsible governing - on the long list of DOA bills that could have improved people’s lives. We will keep fighting for it. #ncpol

Today, Senate Republicans rejected an amendment from Sen. Jay Chaudhuri that would have taken a comprehensive, data-driven approach to lowering health care costs in North Carolina.

I need to know if @rosehoban.bsky.social made this jam herself?! Best tax/contribution letter I have ever received.

I’m proud to support @nchealthnews.bsky.social

Happy New Year! I am grateful and excited to start my new term in the NC Senate, representing southern Wake County. :) We know 2025 will present some unique challenges, but we will face them together.

North Carolina’s 2.5% corp. income tax rate is the lowest in the country. Cutting it to 0% by 2030 (which current law does) = shooting ourselves in the foot.

Congratulations to Senator Sydney Batch and Representative Robert Reives on their election and reelection as Democratic leaders in the Senate and House. They are visionary leaders who reflect NC’s bright future. I look forward to working with both of them to build a safer, stronger state.
