What an honor to be recognized today by @AHLA. Throughout my career I have been inspired by the resilience, passion, and creativity of those who fuel our hospitality industry. You have been my inspiration.
Congratulations to Lynn Minges, president & CEO of @NCRLA, on receiving the Lodging Legacy Award at #HotelsOnTheHill 2025! 🏆 Lynn will soon be retiring. As @AHLACEO Rosanna Maietta said, “Lynn has shaped policy, strengthened industry infrastructure, and elevated hospitality as a key pillar for North Carolina’s economy.” Congratulations, Lynn, and thank you!

I love this!
You all know where I stand on my @ChickfilA order (though it was more controversial than I thought it'd be), a singular chicken sandwich with NO pickles and a sweet tea. Well, after 6 months of campaigning, I'm proud of my Signature Member status at my favorite drive-thru and looking forward to at least 16 chicken sandwiches on these points! #TeamBallard #NCGOP #LtGov

No departure in sight for @AmtrakPiedmont. Had to shift to a flightand thank god for my wonderful wife for taking me to @RDUAirport. If I was forced to wait for @Amtrak no idea when I would have gotten to CLT. Unfortunate, but predictable useless @NCDOT train experience. #ncpol

So proud of you and all you do to support your constituents—especially small businesses.
Following much prayer and conversations with my family, I’m thrilled to announce that we are running for re-election to continue serving the people of District 12 in the #NCGA House. #ncpol Join our team at ChrisHumphreyNC.com

To correct this article, a prepared meals tax would tax mostly residents of the city/county (NOT visitors). Visitors to the coliseum and Tanger facilities are from out of town.

Thank you @NC_Governor for helping to cheer on these amazing young culinary stars preparing for careers in the NC foodservice industry.
We’ve got some talented young chefs! Yesterday, Gov. Cooper spoke at the NC ProStart Invitational in Durham to recognize students getting hands-on experience in the restaurant and hospitality industries while they're still in high school. Photos: NCRLA

Outstanding lineup of speakers and lively discussion at The Forum. Thank you @AHLA and @ChipAHLA for your leadership.
The room was packed with stars today at THE FORUM: An @AHLA Experience. The hotel industry’s top executives and thought leaders gathered at @InterConDCWharf to discuss some of our most important opportunities and challenges.
