Despite controlling both the House and the Senate, NC Republicans still can’t come together to pass a budget. We’re now the only state in the COUNTRY without a full state budget – harming our teachers, hurricane survivors, and Medicaid recipients. #ncpol

Michael Whatley was handed the reins on Helene recovery over a year ago, and yet western NC is still waiting for almost 90% of the funds they need. Our communities and neighbors deserve better than Whatley. #ncpol #helene
As advocates for equity and justice, we have a duty to speak out against the SAVE Act’s threat to the voting rights of millions. Call Sen. Thom Tillis today and tell him to take a stand against this harmful attempt at large-scale voter
suppression. #ncpol #saveact #ncga
Lighter baskets, lower thermostats, delayed appointments– we’re all feeling the burden of higher costs right now. It doesn’t have to be this way. Visit carenc.org to learn more about how North Carolinians are coming together to demand better. #costwecarry #carenc

Nothing has shaken Michael Whatley's support for Trump's tariffs, not even the NC small businesses & customers hurt by them. #ncpol
As a result of consistent underfunding, there were 7,141 staff and teacher vacancies in our public schools last year– the highest ever– and 19,262 teachers have left the public school system. #ncga #ncpol
At the end of last year, 15,512 children were stuck on the Child Care Subsidy waiting list. But instead of investing in affordability initiatives, the NCGA is projected to give $1 billion in additional tax breaks to the wealthy and large corporations in 2026. #ncpol #leandro
It took NC Republicans less than a month to pass Trump's gerrymandered maps, but it's been nearly 30 years and they still won’t fully fund our schools. We’re sick and tired of our leaders putting politics over people. The NC Supreme Court must act. #leandro #ncpol
At the end of last year, 15,512 children were stuck on the Child Care Subsidy waiting list. We spoke with Nancy Rogers, Project Coordinator with Building Equity in Early Childhood Systems, about Leandro funding. #ncpol #ncga #leandro #fy
The Leandro Plan calls for a $445 million increase in the Children With Disabilities allotment. This would mean more teachers, therapists, and psychologists in our schools, as well as specialized curriculum in the classroom to better support students with disabilities. #ncpol
Republican candidate for U.S. Senate Michael Whatley has a track record of putting profit over people. #ncpol #ncga #roycooper #michaelwhatley #ussenate
Watch Dr. Jovita Lee, Deputy Director of NC Black Alliance & Policy Director of Advance North Carolina, speak about the importance of Leandro funding. It’s time for the Court to stop allowing legislators to violate the constitutional promise of a quality public education system.
$445 MILLION for children with disabilities is at stake. Today marks 727 days since the NC Supreme Court agreed to rehear the Leandro case and a decision has still not yet been made to fund it. #leandro #nc #ncpol
Democratic Gov. Josh Stein announces nearly $6 million in grants to aid North Carolina in flood resiliency in Western North Carolina after the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene. #ncpol #ncga #wnc #hurricanehelene
