I had a good visit in Canton for a meet and greet with folks there. This town has been through so much since Helene. Every time I'm here I'm reminded how much strength and resilience is in this community. Thank you to everyone who came out to talk with me. #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC

Amy and I host barn dances every month. In Congress, I'll bring that same Western North Carolina spirit as I take on corporate greed, lower costs for families, and fight for our Helene recovery funds. It's time we turned things around. #NC11 #WNC #NCpol

It’s been two years since Hurricane Helene tore through Western North Carolina. While the damage was devastating, the way this community came together to rebuild has been even more powerful. It is still a long road ahead, but we're in it together. #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC #HurricaneHelene

Western North Carolina's public lands are one of our greatest resources. I’ll always fight to protect our access to hunt, fish, and hike. On National Public Lands Day, let's appreciate the beauty of Western North Carolina. #PublicLandsDay #WNC

I’m a farmer and an entrepreneur, which taught me how to lead, how to be humble, and how to execute, not just talk about big ideas. Right now, this country needs leaders in Washington who will roll up their sleeves, work hard, and fight for Western North Carolina. #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC

Enough corporate greed. Enough self-serving politicians. Mountain families deserve a leader who won't follow the Washington herd. #WNC #NCpol

The government's job isn't to track private citizens. All across Western North Carolina, I keep hearing the same concern: people don't trust Flock & Axon cameras that watch their every move. We need real guardrails before this technology outpaces our constitutional rights. #WNC #NCpol #NC11

I had the privilege to visit the North Carolina Mountain State Fair on opening day. As always, it has great food, fun rides, and a lot of well-deserved recognition for our local farmers and vendors. Keep an eye out for a cutout of me with one of my cows from Hickory Nut Gap. #NC11 #WesternNC

I join all of Western North Carolina in remembering the nearly 3,000 lives taken from us 25 years ago on September 11, 2001. Today, we also honor the courage of first responders who rushed into harm’s way that day and bravely risked their lives for others. We will never forget.

Diesel just hit a record high. When fuel prices spike, so does the cost of everything else. WNC needs someone fighting to lower costs across the board! #WNC #NCpol #NC11

When Helene tore through our community, Amy and I didn't think twice about opening our doors and sharing what we had with neighbors who lost everything. Leadership isn't about which side of the aisle you're on. It’s about showing up when it matters. That kind of trust you can't buy. #WNC #NCpol

I have been a small business owner for over 25 years, and know firsthand how small businesses are the backbone of our economy. I’m running for Congress as an independent voice for Western Carolina, focused on the issues that matter most to us, not partisan agendas.

I had a great Labor Day marching in the Canton Labor Day Parade and the King Apple Parade at the NC Apple Festival. It was great to spend the day celebrating with folks from both communities and honoring the hardworking people who keep Western North Carolina moving. #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC #LaborDay

I started the morning with pancakes and good company at the Kiwanis Club Pancake Breakfast in Hendersonville, and ended it with a drink at RAD Brewing Co in the River Arts District. It’s always a good day when I'm talking with North Carolinians, whether over pancakes or a beer. #NC11 #WNC

Washington is full of backroom deals, insider trading, and career politicians getting rich while working folks get squeezed. The people are sick of the constant corruption, and I refuse to stand by and watch it happen.

Our people deserve representatives who will put Western North Carolina first, not ignore us while they misbehave in D.C. My heart goes out to the young women who took roles with Congressman Edwards' office in the wake of his withdrawal from this race.
This campaign has never been about any one person. It’s always been about Western North Carolina and our communities getting the leadership and representation we deserve. That has not changed. 

For too long, we’ve been forgotten by politicians who sell us a false bill of goods, then go to Congress to treat D.C. as their personal playground while we get left behind. My heart goes out to the young women who took these roles to serve our community.

No matter who we face in November, I’m confident we can win this race and deliver what I’ve been talking about since day one: Hurricane Helene recovery, lower costs, and an end to the corruption in Washington.

One thing I’ve heard more concerns about recently is the development of data centers here in Western North Carolina. I agree with the concerns and support the call for a short term moratorium on new data centers until we have clear rules in place to protect our communities.

On the farm, whenever something needs to be fixed we get to it. If an animal gets loose, we catch it. Things need to be done and we do them. It’s not always glamorous, but it’s important. It’s part of the job.

Corruption is running rampant in Washington. Members of Congress on both sides are trading stocks and padding their own pockets, more worried about their lobbyist friends than they are their own constituents. That’s not only wrong, it’s pathetic and downright unpatriotic.

It was great to visit Bullington Gardens in Hendersonville and see the work they’re doing to connect kids, families, and neighbors with the natural world. Some places remind you what community can grow when people put down roots and care for something together.
