Fighting for a fairer, stronger North Carolina. Advocating for quality education, accessible healthcare, economic opportunity, and a transparent government that works for everyone.

Find us at the NC General Assembly, standing up for the people of our great state.

When it comes to failing the people of NC, no one keeps it đź’Ż like Senate Republicans. We've now gone 100 days without a state budget. It's time for Republicans to get back to work and do their job!

90 days. That’s how long NC Republicans have failed to pass a budget.

90 days of delay. 90 days of dysfunction. 90 days of holding our schools, communities, and families hostage.

Senate Republicans, do your job. Pass a budget. North Carolinians are paying the price.

After months of inaction, the North Carolina Senate has finally passed critical recovery funding for communities devastated by Hurricane Helene — but only after Senate Dems took the extraordinary step of announcing a discharge petition to force the bill forward last week. #ncpol

This past weekend, Sen. Salvador not only graduated with her MBA from MIT — she also delivered the keynote address at commencement!

Sen. Salvador’s journey is a powerful reminder to us all that public service and lifelong learning go hand-in-hand! We’re so proud of you, Senator Salvador! 💙👏 #ncpol #MITGrad

On May 9, Winston-Salem State University awarded Senator Lowe its highest honor—an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters—in recognition of his extraordinary service to the people of North Carolina and his unwavering support for HBCUs like WSSU. 👏

Today, Senate & House Dems held a Bill Funeral for the over 700 bills Republicans buried without debate this session. No hearings. No votes. Just silence. In one of the most unproductive sessions ever, they chose obstruction, but we’re fighting back. #KilledInCommittee #ncpol

NC Senate Republicans just voted to let child abusers bring guns into your child’s private school—without a background check (RIL List).

They had the chance to stop it, and they voted NO. This is what they chose. Not safety. Not responsibility. Just danger for our kids. #ncpol

Instead of standing up for education and kids' programming that actually brings us together, Republicans cut funding from PBS in last week’s Senate budget. What kind of grouch does that??? #SavePBS #ncpol
Sen. Batch’s plan to tie the minimum wage to inflation was shot down. The same politicians who tied their own campaign contributions to inflation won’t do the same for you. #ncpol
By rejecting Sen. Garrett’s proposal for small business support and housing solutions, Republicans just sent a clear message that they don’t care about families finding a place to call home in NC. #ncpol
