Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 24/06/2026Donald Trump refuses to sign a housing bill aimed at making homes more affordable by increasing housing supply, placing limits on private equity firms, and making it easier for first-time buyers to get financing. He puts our families at jeopardy to push his own political agenda. 031

Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 11/06/2026While our state Republican legislators continue to vote on reckless rate hikes for Duke Energy, our Attorney General Jeff Jackson is fighting to save North Carolina an estimated $1.4 Billion dollars. “We can bring that number way down ... That’s what I’m fighting for.” 030

Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Destin Hall was the primary sponsor on a bill that allows Duke Energy to create multi-year rate hikes without oversight. In 2025, he overrode Gov Stein's veto for a bill that allows Duke to increase rates again for future projects. He hopes you will forget. 020

Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 29/05/2026Justice Anita Earls said it plainly in her dissent: Duke Energy customers could pay more for the same electrical service. Wake County families are already struggling with rising housing, grocery, and energy costs. Higher power bills are not affordability. 001

Reposted by Wake County Democratic PartyRepresentative Deborah Ross @ross.house.gov · 27/05/2026Trump's $1.7 billion plus slush fund is corruption at its most obvious: using your taxpayer dollars to reward the President's allies, including Jan 6th rioters convicted of attacking law enforcement. I have yet to speak to anyone - Republican or Democrat - in favor of this. 9106
Reposted by Wake County Democratic PartyRoy Cooper @roycoopernc.bsky.social · 27/05/2026As North Carolinians are getting crushed by rising costs, the last thing they need is another Duke Energy rate hike. It’s just plain wrong. Michael Whatley spent his career lobbying for big utility companies, including Duke Energy, as your rates climbed higher. 14610
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Here in Wake County gas prices are $4.23/gal and inflation has surged to 3.8% due to his careless new war. Trump does not represent our community and our needs. 011
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 05/05/2026Wake County is full of high-paying jobs, but teachers average only $55,000 while similar degree careers pay double. Republican budgets haven’t kept up, and classrooms feel the turnover. We can raise pay, grow talent, and give students a sound basic education. 030

Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 30/04/2026North Carolina ranks 46th in teacher pay, and now Wake County teachers are protesting May 1st just for basic support. GOP leaders still can’t pass a real budget with meaningful raises. We should be paying teachers enough to stay, not pushing them out. 070
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 24/04/2026Gas in Wake County is $3.92 a gallon, up $1 since January. Trump’s move to close the Strait of Hormuz is squeezing supply and driving up costs, hitting your commute and the price of everyday goods. We should be focused on one thing: Make stuff cost less. 010
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Health care in Wake County is getting harder to afford. People are skipping coverage, and rural hospitals are closing. Roy Cooper showed we can expand access and cancel medical debt. GOP lawmakers still leave DHHS short and can’t pass a budget. 020
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 17/04/2026Teachers in Wake County make about $51K, over $10K less than nearby states. Republican leaders have kept salaries flat and won’t pass a budget with real raises. Democrats are pushing to invest in schools so teachers can stay and focus on students, not bills. 021
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 15/04/2026Electricity bills in Wake County are up 22% since 2020 and still rising. Instead of relief, Republican leaders gave Duke new ways to charge customers more, even for projects that haven't been built yet. Democrats want to lower your bills through energy savings and competition. 062
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 12/04/2026Gas in Wake County is up over $1 a gallon, near the highest since COVID. Donald Trump's war with Iran pushed us here and he doesn’t care what it’s costing families. It's time to end this reckless war of choice and pass the War Powers Resolution. 040
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 05/04/2026Our State Constitution guarantees every child the opportunity for a sound basic education.

Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Cooper didn’t just talk about it. He expanded Medicaid, pushed clean energy, and has been calling out tariffs that hurt our agriculture. With costs rising everywhere, that’s exactly what Roy Cooper would bring to the Senate. 092

Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 10/03/2026One in four people in Wake County rely on Medicare or Medicaid for health care, and about a third of that covers kids. DHHS is projected to run out of money this spring. At some point the NC legislature has to stop kicking the can and actually deal with this. 021
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Just noticed gas in Raleigh is up almost $0.40 in a week. Average is around $3.20/gal now. Amazing how the same people who blamed presidents for gas prices are suddenly quiet while Trump is in a war with Iran. 152
Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 05/03/2026Not true. Brown served his full 73 month sentence. What gets ignored is his documented schizophrenia.

Wake County Democratic Party @wakedems.bsky.social · 27/02/2026The “$13B savings” is a pipedream based on faulty projections. Nothing in the bill guarantees lower costs.
