I was honored to join @ChrisMurphyCT, @MaxwellFrostFL and others at the People’s Town Hall in Saxapahaw last night. Thank you to everyone who attended. Your energy is what we need in this moment! 📸: @illegalpics

Republican lawmakers made clear today that they plan to come back to Raleigh and disenfranchise the voters of this state. Instead of lowering costs for families or ensuring Medicaid can stay afloat, they are hellbent on consolidating as much power as they can. #ncpol #ncga

WXII: “These cuts are happening because the General Assembly has yet to agree on a funding package.” North Carolinians need House and Senate Republicans to end their standoff and pass desperately needed Medicaid funding. #ncpol #ncga

Republican Leadership in the State Legislature cannot agree on Medicaid funding, let alone a budget. Due to their failure, today the NCDHHS will have to make some cuts to Medicaid in order to keep the program afloat. North Carolinians deserve much better than this. #ncpol #ncga

Medicaid cuts will be implemented tomorrow due entirely to Republican leadership failing to strike a deal among themselves. And they won't be back in town for three more weeks at least. #ncpol #ncga https://t.co/mXPdmbRz0B

Republican lawmakers are too busy fighting with each other to govern our state effectively. Medicaid rebase funding is caught up in the larger disagreements that they have with one another on a comprehensive budget, now three months overdue. #ncpol #ncga https://t.co/CnjWmKnvC9

What a disservice to the North Carolinians who rely on this coverage. "State lawmakers left the capitol Tuesday without striking a deal that would prevent cuts to Medicaid reimbursement rates" #ncpol #ncga https://t.co/GZi0kJDmVr

North Carolinians relying on Medicaid cannot afford to wait for another month of inaction from Republican Leadership in the #NCGA. We need Medicaid rebase funding urgently. #ncpol

Republicans in Raleigh need to come together and pass a clean bill to fund Medicaid. North Carolinians will pay the price of their political games. @NCHouseDems are ready to come back next week and get this work done. #ncpol #ncga https://t.co/0h9JigEhFd

Yesterday @friendsforbatch @electreives @GraigMeyer and I joined @UNCYoungDems to talk to and hear from students about the lack of a state budget, rising costs facing young people and families and threats to Medicaid. They are engaged and taking action to turn our state around!

“We’ve got to figure out what to do with people who fall in that gap, and the gap is people who are a danger to themselves, who are a danger to others, who we know are a danger, and we’re not getting them off the streets,” Rep. Reives said. #ncpol #ncga https://t.co/1ZCY66r9Z2

House minority leader Robert Reives called on GOP legislative leaders to issue a bipartisan bill that provides funding for local police, district attorneys, magistrates and judges. #ncpol #ncga https://t.co/AQON53n7PB

Investing in Public Safety for North Carolinians “As a former prosecutor, public safety is paramount for me. These are broad areas of focus where I believe we can find common ground.” -- @electreives #ncpol #ncga https://t.co/0teiLtiZCa

We should be working toward a future where our children and their children see these senseless acts of violence as a distant memory of the past. I am willing to work across the aisle to forge a consensus if we are serious about real solutions. https://t.co/LjavdCX6Am

Never forget the lives we lost on 9/11/2001.

There is absolutely no room in our nation for political violence. Everyone should condemn this senseless murder and call for the better angels of our nature to prevail.

Join AG Jeff Jackson and me next Sunday for a birthday fundraiser. Details below — I hope to see you there! https://t.co/ZahrAv3TRb

This is the reality of Republican health care policies taking effect. North Carolinians cannot afford these increases, coupled with stagnant wages and a job market worsening by the day. #ncpol #ncga

Thanks to Republican cuts, North Carolina will now be on the hook for billions of dollars. "The federal mega-bill that cut social welfare programs will potentially undo Medicaid expansion in the state..." #ncpol #ncga https://t.co/v8Mu2JG6P0

For too many North Carolinians, the American Dream feels out of reach. We need to take action and increase wages, make health care affordable and create a real path to homeownership. If you work hard, you should be able to get ahead. #ncpol #ncga https://t.co/m7lqQxcnu6
