🚨Event Alert🚨: We're hosting town halls on the impacts federal cuts will have on our communities. The first event will be held in Asheville on March 20th, led by Lindsey Prather, Brian Turner, Eric Ager, and Sen. Julie Mayfield. #ncpol mobilize.us/ncdphc/event/7…

Not counting the votes of our folks serving in the military overseas makes no sense and I am proud that Justice Riggs is standing up for them. As a veteran who voted from overseas regularly during my career, I am livid that this is being argued by the Republican who lost.

It was great to speak with the people of Swannanoa today with Lindsey Prather. The truth is that the Swannanoa Community needs more recovery support from the federal and state govt. And we need Ingles and the USPS to do their part by reopening the grocery store and post office.

🚨 North Carolina Republicans just introduced HB 804, which completely bans abortions after conception — with no exceptions for rape/incest and includes a minimum $100,000 fine for seeking reproductive health care.

Eric Ager , Brian Turner , Lindsey Prather & I filed HB 599 "Award N.C. Forest Service Pay Increase" prior to Commissioner Troxler asking for salary increases. Disappointed this article doesn't mention our bill. #NCForestService #ncpol carolinajournal.com/wildfires-up-o…

As a veteran who voted absentee a lot, I am appalled that the NC Supreme Court decided the votes of active duty servicemen and women won’t count unless they are somehow able to cure their ballot within thirty days. wral.com/story/nc-supre…

Disappointing that after several visits right here to Buncombe County, President Trump isn’t following through with full support for as long as it takes. Another reason not to trust what folks say but instead what they do.

Finally! So pleased that the courts aren’t throwing out votes from our active duty military serving overseas. Griffin’s effort to toss these votes should disqualify him from higher office. citizen-times.com/story/news/202…

Looking forward to participating in this event supporting veterans in Fayetteville. It is more important now than ever before that we come together to ensure the country we defended with our lives isn’t destroyed by corrupt political forces.

This is the primary reason behind HB 599 "Award N.C. Forest Service Pay Increase" that was introduced by Brian Turner , Lindsey Prather , Eric Ager & I in late March. The bill was referred to Appropriations the next day and hasn't moved since. #ncpol wyff4.com/article/nc-for…

People talk a lot about the importance of bipartisanship but we don’t see much of it in reality here in the NC General Assembly.

When NC House Republicans says “accountability,” they don’t mean for programs they want to keep in the dark. Watch Lindsey Prather push for basic transparency on Opportunity Scholarships in the budget. #ncpol

Rep. Eric Ager: "I think we've all heard it, and we've all seen it in a lot of ways, but our people in certain places are still really hurting. And this bill's really gonna help."

Yet another reason that Brian Turner , Lindsey Prather , Eric Ager & I introduced HB 599 "Award N.C. Forest Service Pay Increase" this session to give those employees a raise they've earned. An amendment for another raise I introduced in Appropriations was also voted down. #ncpol

WNC can’t wait! We need the NC Senate to pass the Helene Relief Bill now. Having relief funding get mucked up in the budget negotiations would be the wrong outcome for communities like Swannanoa.

Gotta love spring in the mountains. Shelling peas on a wet morning is so much better for the soul than watching the current political chaos in Washington.

Lest we forget WNC is still suffering following the storm. I heard yesterday that the NC Senate is holding up the relief bill already passed by the House to use as leverage. It’s despicable. WNC should not be used as a pawn in Phil Berger’s political games. #ncpol #wncstrong

We’ll see a lot of political distraction from Republicans in the coming months. But bottom line, they have failed to govern or lead this year in Raleigh.
