It was great to return for the annual Farm Bureau this week and show my appreciation for the folks whose hard work puts food on our tables.

Our farmers deserve a partner who knows their challenges and is committed to securing a stronger future. I’m ready for that fight.

It’s hard enough to start a small business and now, reckless tariffs are making it even harder to succeed.

Senator Warnock said it best: tariffs are a tax on ordinary people.

I am running to represent all North Carolinians, not just those who agree with me.

Senator Warnock said he needs some help in Washington. Let's get it done.

My opponent is a DC insider who clearly doesn’t know what’s happening on the ground in North Carolina.

I think the people of North Carolina don't want a yes-man in the Senate.

I think most people agree that we need a Senator who will bring people together to get things done, and sports is a great way to do that.

Had a great time talking Canes (and this race) with SiriusXM NHL Radio.

I filed for office today, and this one is special. We need folks all over who will step and do what they can to help everyday people.

North Carolinians are getting hit hard. The federal government promised they would lower costs, but instead they’re driving up prices with bad policy.

Thanks for having me on to talk about why I’m running, @meidastouch.com.

Medicaid Expansion helped hardworking North Carolinians across the state access care & stay healthy, particularly in rural areas.

Now, that progress is at risk. Extreme DC Republicans like my opponent are trying to rip away health care from millions of people. We must stop them.

Two years ago, we did what everyone said we couldn’t: We expanded Medicaid.

It was a decade-long battle that was well worth it to get quality, affordable health care to more than 690,000 North Carolinians. We worked with everyone — Republicans & Democrats alike — to get it done.

This Small Business Saturday, consider supporting some of the small businesses that are the backbone of our economy here in North Carolina.

Happy Thanksgiving, North Carolina!

Thanksgiving is a time to remember all there is to be thankful for in our lives. During this week I hope all of us can celebrate with loved ones and enjoy food, football and fellowship.

I’m praying for the two members of the National Guard shot in Washington, D.C. today and their loved ones. Violence of any kind, especially against those charged with keeping us safe, is unacceptable.

If you've actually gone grocery shopping recently, it's pretty easy to tell that prices aren't down.

Whatley calls for replacing Obamacare with ‘market-driven solutions’ About 888,000 North Carolinians could see their health care premiums double if Obamacare tax credits expire.

"Market-driven solutions" is just a fancy term for eliminating the Affordable Care Act and letting health insurance companies charge you more for worse care. That isn't a solution.

Trump drops tariffs on beef, coffee, tropical fruit as pressure builds on consumer prices President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to get rid of tariffs on a broad swath of commodities, including beef, coffee and tropical fruits.

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.

Toyota investing $13.9B, creating 5,100 jobs in North Carolina Gov. Josh Stein announced that the car manufacturer will be opening its first battery plant in North America in our state.

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.

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 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.
