Our mission in the North Carolina Senate Democratic Caucus (NCSDC) is to #TakeTheMajority in the State Senate and win Governor Cooper the chamber he needs to enact real change—bringing opportunity, fairness, and a better quality of life to all North Carolinians.
We’re so close to flipping this chamber
What would electing a Democratic majority in the North Carolina Senate mean? It would mean access to affordable healthcare for half a million North Carolinians; rebuilding public education—investing in our students, our educators, and our future; ending gerrymandering once and for all; and protecting the environment for ourselves and our children.
Reproductive Freedom
The North Carolina Senate Democrats believe that everyone has a right to bodily autonomy and will always protect a woman’s right to choose. Senate Democrats will always stand against the Radical Right’s attempts to legislate a woman’s body. This year, with abortion rights on the ballot, it is critical that we are able to hold the line and sustain Governor Cooper’s veto and protect a woman’s right to choose in North Carolina.
Education
Senate Democrats will fight to bring back what was once one of America’s best early childhood education systems, competitive K-12 schools, and a world-class public university system. We’ll reinvest in our students by raising per-pupil spending and value our educators by paying them a professional wage.
Healthcare
Senate Democrats will finally lift the Republican blockade on Medicaid expansion, offering half a million North Carolinians access to healthcare while bringing jobs and federal funds to our state. Soon, all our citizens will be able to get care for chronic conditions, prevent illness and disease progression and live healthy, productive lives.
Voting Rights
In the Senate, we will undo the unfair, lopsided, and unconstitutional Republican gerrymandering and make sure that all North Carolinians are heard at the ballot box and properly represented in government. We believe strongly that legislators shouldn’t pick their voters, voters should pick their legislators.
How do we win? Only with your support.
