Issue Position: An Effective Voice for Rural North Carolina
Issue Position
Issues: Economy and Fiscal
Rural communities in eastern NC have been left behind. Small towns like Kinston, Pink Hill, Deep Run, La Grange, Ayden and Grifton have struggled, while big cities like Raleigh and Charlotte have grown and prospered. We can do better; I'm not pointing fingers. It's time to start conversations that lead to results, and I'm here to do just that. We need to focus on creating jobs and increasing wages. Economic prosperity shouldn't just be available for those who live in larger cities in this state; rural NC deserves a piece of the pie. As your representative in Raleigh, I will continue to be that effective voice to ensure that rural NC gets our fair share.
