John, I’ve learned firsthand that you don’t win elections and govern well alone.

At every step of the way, I’ve been graced with the help and support of countless people who share our values, our passion, and our determination to make this country better.

I’ve been overwhelmed by the response to our campaign’s announcement for the U.S. Senate yesterday. Already, thousands of people in North Carolina and across this country are standing up to join our fight. I’m hoping to count you among them right now.

As we begin the most competitive Senate campaign of 2026, I truly need you on our team.

Could you make a Founding Donation to our campaign today to help us take on the GOP and take back the Senate for Democrats?

North Carolina is one of the last true purple states in the nation. I won my elections for governor in 2016 and 2020 — and Donald Trump carried the state in the same years.

That makes this state critical to our path to restoring a Democratic Senate majority and ending the assault on our rights coming down from the federal government.

As North Carolina’s next Senator, I will be proud to speak out in defense of voting rights, abortion access, and the programs like Medicaid that help our communities to thrive. I will not back down. I refuse to let Republicans in Washington take this country backward.

Democratic Senators are the last line of defense for the rights that Americans hold dear and the American dreams that can still be fulfilled. We can and must take a stand.

I have never taken running for office lightly, John, and I know that winning this race will be the toughest election I’ve ever had. But together, we’ve won tough fights before. We can win now. If you are with me, please make your grassroots Founding Donation today >>>
