As someone who worked for decades to improve NC's criminal justice system, I've seen firsthand how DNA testing can deliver justice and even exonerate the innocent. I'm proud to have secured $500,000 in federal funding for Wake County's new DNA lab, which is now open. Read More:

For 61 years, Medicare and Medicaid have been lifelines. But they face unprecedented attacks. This admin cut Medicaid for 15 million Americans to fund tax cuts for the rich. Now, they're ending a critical Medicare subsidy program. We cannot abandon Americans in their most vulnerable moments.

Republicans want us to give this admin the benefit of the doubt on their new bill that criminalizes any child who overstays their visa. I won't standby giving unchecked power to an admin that has repeatedly violated the law.

I led a roundtable to discuss how this admin harmed higher education by changing student loan rules. Trump’s policies are hurting the future teachers, healthcare workers, business leaders, & more that Wake County needs. I'll keep fighting to make sure higher ed remains a pathway to opportunity.

I'm fighting in Washington to make life easier for folks in North Carolina. Lately, that looks a lot like fighting against bad policies that do nothing to bring down costs. Hear more:

This morning, I announced $850,000 in safety improvements to Jones Sausage Road alongside Garner Mayor Gupton, members of the Garner Town Council, key staff and the Garner PD. This project will help ensure our infrastructure is safe, efficient, and built for the future.

I love going to the farmers market; I know where my food comes from and I pay fair prices that go straight to NC farmers. But families are struggling to afford groceries, gas, and more because of this admin. With 100 days until Election Day, it's clear we're moving in the wrong direction.

Despite how this admin advertises a new “gold-standard” in science, scientific research is collapsing nationwide. Trump & his political appointees now want to control ALL grant decisions, risking clinical trials, biotech, & more. It's a cheap cover-up of their costly threats to science.

A new Republican bill would make any child who overstays their visa a criminal--even if they're with a parent or don't have the ability to leave on their own. This isn't about safety. This is about hurting immigrant children. @raskin.house.gov and I explain:

My statement on House Republicans’ Partisan NDAA:

House Republicans want to pass an immigration bill that would criminalize children—even toddlers— who overstay their visas. We can't trust this admin to treat children humanely or follow the law as is. Why would we trust them with a new law that could damage more kids?

NEW: I launched an investigation w/ Rep. Valerie Foushee + @adams.house.gov into Duke Energy's settlement with the Trump admin to abandon an offshore wind project off the NC coast in exchange for a payout. We will get answers. www.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

I'm devastated to lose another Fort Bragg soldier. My deepest condolences are with the loved ones of Sgt Michael Emmanuel Swinton of Fayetteville as they grieve this unimaginable loss. I'm praying for the safety of all of our servicemembers around the world. My heart goes out to his young children.

Nearly 6 years after we lost civil rights icon John Lewis, President Trump is spreading lies and pushing to take voting access away from millions of Americans. We can't let that happen. We must follow John Lewis' legacy, get into some good trouble, and exercise our right to vote this November.

I was honored to receive the Equal Rights Amendment Champion Certificate. Today is an important day to discuss equal rights - on the 6-year anniversary of civil rights leader John Lewis' death. Lewis fought for equal rights for all Americans, no matter their gender, race, or religion. 1/2

Patricia Rojas is a Documented Dreamer. She was forced to self-deport — despite having lived in the U.S. nearly her entire life. My bill would protect thousands like Patricia whose families came to this country legally. Read more: reason.com/2026/07/10/s...

Todd Blanche faces the Senate today. From Trump's slush fund to the mishandling of the Epstein files and Ghislaine Maxwell's shady prison transfer, the evidence is clear: the Senate must vote NO on confirming him as Attorney General.

Joan Sebastian Guerrero was a 26-year-old father who did the right things to be in this country legally. He wasn't the target of a warrant, yet he was shot and killed by ICE. Trump's ICE is out of control and not making our communities safer.

A federal judge just ruled that Trump’s IRS immunity deal + slush fund amounts to “self-dealing.” This scam is so appalling that the judge is referring Trump’s lawyers for sanctions. Trump wants to reward the architect of it all—Todd Blanche—by making him Attorney General.
