Issues

  • Voter ID: The right of citizens who are eighteen years of age and older to vote is guaranteed by the Twenty-Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution.  The requirement of voter identification is necessary to ensure the principle of “one person, one vote” and the integrity of U.S. elections.  Therefore, I will defend and enforce North Carolina’s voter ID law.
​ 
  • Law & Order: I stand with President Trump against sanctuary cities. North Carolina law enforcement must cooperate with federal immigration authorities in order to prevent illegal aliens from committing crimes against our citizens and legal residents. I will ask the General Assembly for the authority to hold sanctuary sheriffs accountable for failing to do their duty to keep North Carolinians safe. I support capital punishment.

  • Rape Kits: I will devote the resources necessary to clear the backlog of rape kits and restore confidence in the State Crime Lab.  If necessary, I will ask the General Assembly for additional funding to do the job that past Attorneys General have failed to do.
 
  • Second Amendment:  My primary role as Attorney General is to represent the citizens of North Carolina, and to uphold the constitution. The Second Amendment is clear - the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. 
 
  • Set Politics aside: I will take seriously my constitutional and statutory duty to provide legal representation to state agencies without regard to politics or outside influence.  Unlike the current Attorney General, I will honor my oath of office to uphold the Constitution regardless of my personal political beliefs.
 
  • Standing up for North Carolina: I will put North Carolina citizens and taxpayers first.  Unlike previous attorneys general, I will stand up to federal regulatory overreach. 
 
  • Pro-Family: Families are the core of our society and we must stand up for them, particularly in this day and age when family values are constantly under attack.  Nothing is more important than protecting our children, and I will make that my priority in office.
​
  • ​Pro-Life: I believe in the sanctity of human life and will work to end the tragedy of abortion. I am opposed to taxpayer funding of abortions. I will also support reducing barriers to adoption.
 
  • Pro-Business: I spent most of my career in the private sector.  I believe in free markets and private enterprise – they Make America Great and we cannot yield to socialism.  However, as my career as a public servant has demonstrated, I am not afraid to hold corporations accountable when they put profits above people.
 
  • Pro-Farmer: Agriculture and related businesses make up one sixth of North Carolina’s economy, generating over $84 billion and account for 17% of the State’s income and work force.  Our Attorney General must respect the vital role our farmers play, and they will have an ally in me for a change.
​​
  • For Religious Liberty: America was founded on Judeo-Christian values. These principles form the basis of our Constitution and our system of justice. Today, our values are under assault by the left, and I will make defending religious liberty a top priority.
