Did you know that in NC we currently have a policy that will have corporations paying ZERO in state income tax by 2030? ZERO?!? Tell NC lawmakers to pause the cuts and use that $2 billion/yr to invest in what families need.
Would you want someone as young as 18 years old to be allowed to carry a loaded, hidden handgun in our communities, and neighborhoods without undergoing a background check? We certainly don’t! That is why we must make sure that Concealed Carry Permitting is never repealed. Tell your NC lawmakers to vote NO on HB5/SB50, which would repeal Concealed Carry Permitting and put us in harm’s way!
A living wage. Paid sick days. Paid family and medical leave. These policies represent the essential building blocks of what working people need to provide for themselves and their families. But in North Carolina none of them are guaranteed by law. RSVP now to join us and tell lawmakers why these issues are so important.
