Too many North Carolinians — like those I spoke with in Charlotte today — have too much month at the end of the money. It’s time to make stuff cost less.

As North Carolinians are getting crushed by rising costs, the last thing they need is another Duke Energy rate hike. It’s just plain wrong.
Michael Whatley spent his career lobbying for big utility companies, including Duke Energy, as your rates climbed higher.

The president and Michael Whatley promised to deal with high prices but they’ve only made things worse.
Families are clearly hurting right now and they couldn’t care less.
