(Ballotpedia (Campaign themes)) Elections & Government Reform: “The Right to Vote and the Right to Representation. Our foremothers and forefathers fought, bled, and died in the valiant effort to claim the right to vote for themselves and for us. In no way can we let their efforts be in vain. As the District 50 Representative in the NC House, I will rise up, speak out, and, as the late John Lewis said, “get in good trouble” to protect and assure our right to the ballot and our right for representation.”
(Ballotpedia (Campaign themes)) Education: “A Sound Basic Education from Pre-K to Community College. I believe our state legislature has a responsibility to help fulfill the promise of a sound, basic education by investing in our students, school facilities, early childhood education, public school teachers and staff, and community colleges.”
