🖊️🇺🇸 It’s official! I filed to run for the NC House of Representatives in District 24.
I was surprised by some of my former Wilson County Schools teachers & principals. Some have known me since I was 5 years old! It was a blessing to have them there as I start this new chapter.

Too many North Carolinians are being left behind.
From our youngest citizens that desperately need access to quality early childcare to middle class families that need quality & affordable housing options, it’s time for a change.
I’m running to break the

supermajority.

It’s not a game to me.
It’s about my hometown. It’s about my neighbors. It’s about restoring common sense to our state legislature.
Let’s keep it about issues, not games.

@JordanALopez_

Younger voices, and just new voices in general are desperately needed in Raleigh.
The perspectives from North Carolinians who far too often feel ignored or left behind are simply missing.

said today, public schools rock!
2024 has been declared the “Year of Public Schools.” Let’s support and strengthen our community’s public schools instead of handing out private school subsidies to wealthy families.

When looking at this year’s legislative races,
@FLIP_NC
said it best: we have an opportunity to flip HD 24 and break the GOP supermajority.
We need all hands on deck to build a strong community-centered campaign. Chip in to help us get there:
While FLIP NC is shifting our focus to the courts this year, it’s as important as ever to support Dem candidates in competitive districts across NC and prevent another GOP supermajority in the state legislature in 2024.

Thank you
@JoshStein_
! We are ready to get to work for North Carolina families. Can’t wait to see you in Wilson County.
I am really excited about Dante Pittman's candidacy for him and for NC. Dante worked for me at the NCDOJ & he's great! He moved back to his hometown of Wilson to work for the city. Serving in the state house would be another excellent way for him to continue his public service.

I am thinking about my alma mater today. My heart goes out to the Carolina community as they process and grieve.
We’ve got to find solutions. There is no excuse.
I'm devastated the

community lost a faculty member in an act of violence on campus. Carolina will move into Condition 2 - classes will be canceled tomorrow and all non-mandatory operations are suspended. Tar Heels, know that support is available.

Have you heard of the Chitlin Circuit? During segregation, it included friendly venues across the South that hosted Black performers. Wilson was a major destination!
Last weekend showed we have so much to be proud of in our community, from jazz artistry to historic preservation.

When I was a senior at Fike High School, I did a project through Mrs. Proctor’s class. I got to coach my little brother’s basketball team. 🏀
I loved guiding those 5/6 year olds on the court as they learned & had positive youth experiences here where I grew up. 🏠
