It was such an honor to swear-in @Oxford_Cohn today in Henderson.

Rep. Cohn is a fighter & he’s going to do an incredible job fighting for all of us. I can’t wait to see all the great things he does for our state & its future. #ncpol 🇺🇸

Forever grateful for the honor & privilege to serve the people of Senate District 18.

Tonight, I can say with confidence that I have won my race for the North Carolina Supreme Court!

Congrats to my friend and Senate colleague, @HuntforNC!

I’ll certainly miss sitting next to you in Caucus, but I cannot wait to beam with pride as I watch you preside over the North Carolina State Senate.

Grateful for your unwavering commitment to NC & its future! 🇺🇸

#HurricaneHelene has brought devastating tragedy, the magnitude of which we cannot begin to fully comprehend.

Thank you to all the amazing heroes who have jumped right in to answer the call—first responders, law enforcement, strangers & neighbors alike. #ncpol [🧵]

Our public education system exists to ensure every child can chase the American Dream, regardless of where they live or what situation they were born into.

Tax $ should NOT be diverted from local public schools & into the bank accounts of private, unaccountable ones. #ncpol

[Kelly McCullen @kellymccullen]

Sen. @Bode4Senate says much of her senate district doesn't feature robust private school options, making school vouchers ineffective in much of rural NC, a point she made on this week's State Lines during a very healthy discussion on the issue. #ncpol https://t.co/Qf25kLvKOg

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. 🙏🏼✨

The Anxious Generation by @JonHaidt is an excellent diagnosis of cell phones & social media, re: children & teens.

@GCPSchools was among the first places *in the country* to take steps to address the issue head-on.

It’s a blueprint I hope the rest of NC will follow! #ncpol

[Travis Fain @TravisFain]

@skydiving11 @marywillsbode @NewFrameInc I think you're right. Granville County. I'm sure other districts have policies, too. Good story for someone. My memory is Granville felt good about how theirs is working. https://t.co/N56Q9nLwEg

Happy Father’s Day, y’all! 💙💙💙

What does this bill do?

➡️ allows out of state billionaires to funnel unlimited amounts of $ to NC campaigns anonymously 🤑

➡️ changes campaign finance rules in the middle of an election cycle—gotta wonder why? 🤔

How does it help the people of NC?

➡️ IT DOESN’T 🤨

#ncpol

[Mary Wills Bode @Bode4Senate]

Ah yes, the political money laundering bill *doing business as* as the “mask” bill. 💸🧼➡️😷

#ncpol #ncga

[Dawn B. Vaughan @dawnbvaughan]

Also surprise, the mask CR isn't just about masks if you haven't read the bill yet.

[Mary Wills Bode @Bode4Senate]

@skydiving11 Congrats!!!

[Mary Wills Bode @Bode4Senate]

Curious how North Carolina compares to other states with regards to accountability for taxpayer vouchers going to private & religious schools?

@Bode4Senate talks school vouchers and why it's problematic to shift public funding towards scholarships for private school tuition on this week's State Lines on @MyPBSNC #ncpol
