Had a great chat on The Arrington Gavin Show! We dove into Jaxson Dart, Colin Kaepernick, and the importance of fair redistricting in NC. Check it out! 👀💬 youtu.be/L6Y40zie4W #Gerrymandering #FairMaps #NCPolitics

Bi-partnership at work for NC
North Carolina tobacco farmers are facing a perfect storm of economic pressures and need urgent relief. Rising input costs, lost export markets, and lower prices are creating real challenges for farm families who work hard every day to support our agricultural economy. @SenThomTillis and I are calling for any agricultural disaster assistance package to recognize the hardships facing tobacco producers and ensure they are not left behind. @RepDavidRouzer @RepGregMurphy @RepTimMooreNC @RepPatHarrigan

Proud to Be American Series: Immigration and Renewal America has the right to secure its borders and enforce its laws. But our strength has also come from people who arrived, embraced American ideals, worked, served, built, and became part of our national story. Belief defines belonging. Renewal is a feature of America, not a weakness.

HB 958 is moving again. A House committee will consider the sweeping election bill June 16, and it could advance again that same day. It includes good audits and transparency reforms—but also bans ranked-choice voting and makes ballot access harder. NC Forward cannot support it as written. Call your representative and urge a NO vote: ncleg.gov/FindYourLegislator…

Great day at the Vance County Courthouse Juneteenth Celebration. We met voters, listened to concerns, shared the NC Forward Party's vision for election reform and better governance, and had some outstanding conversations with people from all walks of life. That's how democracy should work. #Juneteenth #NCForwardParty

NC Forward Party Vice Chair Lennie Friedman joined Spectrum News’ Capital Tonight to discuss our Anti-Gerrymandering Task Force and the push for neutral, repeatable redistricting rules in North Carolina. Voters should choose their representatives — not the other way around.

Proud to help lead this work as Vice Chair of the NC Forward Party. Our Anti-Gerrymandering Task Force is focused on neutral, repeatable rules that protect voters regardless of which party is in power.

America is approaching its 250th birthday. That should be more than a celebration. It should be a moment of responsibility. The NC Forward Party is working to build a serious, durable, statewide alternative for North Carolina voters. Ballot access is the first step. With ballot access, Forward candidates can give voters another choice — practical, transparent, reform-minded leadership focused on solving problems, not rewarding party loyalty. America at 250 should be about what we build next. Join the 250 Club: ncforwardparty.com/250_club

The NC Forward Party is building an Anti-Gerrymandering Task Force because fair maps should not be drawn to help Republicans, Democrats, or independents. They should be drawn with fair, transparent, repeatable rules — then voters should decide. Fair rules. Fair maps. Voters first. Most voters don’t think about district maps every day, but maps shape our politics. They affect whether elections are competitive, whether communities stay together, and whether elected officials are accountable to voters — or protected by party-driven lines. That’s why this work matters.

America at 250 250 years ago, Americans launched an extraordinary experiment in self-government. It wasn't guaranteed. It wasn't perfect. Yet it produced the most prosperous and innovative nation in history. The next chapter is ours to write. Follow our journey as we celebrate America's 250th anniversary and explore what the next chapter of self-government can look like in North Carolina. ncforwardparty.com/250_club #America250 #NCForwardParty

Great day in Butner. We met Republicans, Democrats, and Independents who were eager to talk about ideas—not party labels. That's what the Forward Party is about: Ideas over ideology. Debate over loyalty. Solutions over division. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and joined the conversation. #NCForwardParty #ForwardTogether #NCVoters

Act III: America as a Place to Belong Act I was about America as an idea. Act II was about America as a responsibility. Now Act III asks what it means to build a country where more people can say: I belong here, too. Proud to be American — not because America is perfect, but because America is still worth building. #ProudToBeAmerican #ActIII #ForwardParty

Kelly McCullen said it plainly: NC needs more political choices. That is why the NC Forward Party is working to become an official political party and get on the ballot. Listen here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas… Want to help? Petitions must be signed in person. #NCVoters #ncpol

In NC, a candidate can win a party primary with only 30% of the vote. Ranked Choice Voting / Instant Runoffs help ensure winners earn majority support — without forcing voters to worry about “wasting a vote” or choosing the lesser of two evils. Join us June 3 in Greensboro. RSVP: ncforwardparty.com/majority_… #NCVoters #GreensboroNC #ncpol
