No one should be in the ocean.

I want to emphasize the importance of taking this storm seriously, because it’s a serious storm and conditions can deteriorate quickly.

It is just too easy for salacious, really dramatic stories to take root and then and spread like wildfire, even in a hurricane, because that's what people click on.

If you have not evacuated, make sure you batten down the hatches.

At a time when our law enforcement is already stretched thin, this bill takes state law enforcement officers away from their existing state duties and forces them to act as federal immigration agents.

We need to have stability, businesses need certainty, so they can figure out how and where to invest.

I urge you to press pause on this bill because of the immediate and long-term threats it poses.

use a scalpel, not a chainsaw.

The North Carolina Constitution puts the Governor in charge of executing the law. That’s what the voters elected me to do, so that’s what I’ll do.

The states cannot do all this work alone and need the help of the Federal government, just as the Federal government needs the states.

The toxic marketing claims used to peddle e-cigarettes to America's young people have had a devastating effect.

We need our Federal regulatory partners to help us make clear, in no uncertain terms, that marketing nicotine products to youth is impermissible.

We need industry-wide standards to prohibit manufacturers and retailers of nicotine products from being able to sell products in youth-friendly dessert-and fruit-flavors like bubblegum, mango, mint, and menthol.

Protecting our constituents is our highest calling, and I am proud to stand up for hardworking North Carolinians like Anita.

We want a shortage of high-cost, illegal, harmful loans.

This is a perfect example of the OCC trying to preempt States' ability to protect their people from unlawful, high-cost, harmful loan products.

The idea that somebody would make a contribution and then be reimbursed by a corporation or an individual, that's a straw donor. That would be a violation of the law.
