Taxes, budget & cost of living: “From 2000-2010, our state government spending grew at an alarming rate and out of control. As your senator I have worked hard to cut wasteful spending and balance a state budget that started with a projected $2.5 billion dollar deficit. We’ve now put our state’s fiscal house in order and now have budget surpluses rather than deficits.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))
Democracy, elections & governance: “In 2018 I voted for the Voter ID amendment to the North Carolina state constitution, and you the people overwhelmingly approved it at the ballot box. Yet, Democrats are trying to get liberal judges to overturn the will of the people and block implementation of Voter ID. This is a blatant attack on the rule of law, and I will continue to fight for the integrity of our elections.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))
Healthcare & reproductive rights: “Human life is precious and worthy of protection from conception to natural death. I am proud to be endorsed by NC Right to Life, which defends these values within our state. I oppose taxpayer-funded abortion and will defend the right to life at every stage, from the unborn children to the elderly. I was proud to support the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Act that protected babies that survived botched abortions.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))
