This is deceit of the highest order. Rep. Cotham’s decision is a betrayal to the people of HD-112 with repercussions not only for her district, but for our entire state.
If she can no longer represent the values her constituents entrusted her to champion, she should resign, now.
Congratulations to Cheri Beasley on her nomination! As an accomplished public defender, judge, & former Chief Justice we know she will make us proud in the US Senate when she wins in November! If you are ready to flip this seat, sign up to volunteer:

Even in the face of damming evidence, Thom Tillis voted to acquit Donald Trump, betraying our democracy and abandoning his oath of office. History will indict him.

CNN has found that Mark Robinson “repeatedly lambasted” the Civil Rights Movement, saying “so many freedoms were lost” and calling the Greensboro sit-in a “ridiculous premise.”
🧵African American leaders from across NC are condemning his statements:
Every generation has a moment where they have had to stand up for democracy. To stand up for their fundamental freedoms. I believe this is ours.
That’s why I’m running for reelection as President of the United States. Join us. Let’s finish the job.
North Carolina Democrat Paula Dance made history today -- she was sworn in as the 1st African American woman sheriff in the state and the 5th in the entire country. Congratulations, Sheriff Dance!
The legislators that voted to limit our freedoms will be on the ballot in 2024. We must vote. Make sure you and everyone you know are registered and ready.

This would be a shocking abuse of power by the Biden Administration. Seizing patents is a move that we see in dictatorships, not the United States. America leads the world in drug discovery and development, due to strong intellectual property protections. This misguided decision…
Representative Cotham’s constituents elected her to uphold their values and protect their freedoms.
We stand with the people of HD-112 in holding her accountable to that.
Rep. Cotham is switching her party affiliation -- abandoning the ideals every voter, activist, and supporter in her district counted on. This betrayal warrants her immediate resignation. Add your name if you agree:
Dan Bishop authored the discriminatory and destructive anti-trans bathroom bill, and voted against the certification of the 2020 election. North Carolinians cannot afford to have Dan Bishop as our state’s AG.
BREAKING: Pat McCrory, failed politician and HB2 champion, just announced he’s running for our Senate seat in 2022. We know who he is and what he stands for. North Carolina -- leave Pat in the past.

On the anniversary of the Roe decision, we are in the district Tricia Cotham betrayed to help the GOP ban abortion in NC.
Abortion is on the ballot this November, and Republicans like Donald Trump and Mark Robinson have promised to take away our rights to bodily autonomy.
The last time voters bought what Tricia Cotham was selling them, they got scammed. She lied to her district and she single-handedly put women’s rights in NC on the chopping block. Her constituents deserve better.
My home is full of family today. After our prayers and talks, I’ve decided that I will seek re-election to keep representing Mecklenburg County

Yeah, we agree. Mark Robinson is dangerous for North Carolina. Help us fight back against his extremism:…

You organized, you mobilized, you turned out to vote -- because of you NC Democrats broke the Republican supermajority, swept statewide judicial races and defeated two dangerous amendments. But we're just getting started. Onward to 2019, 2020, and beyond:
We haven't elected a Democratic Senator since '08 when we sent our beloved Sen. Kay Hagan to the Senate.
