Always appreciate the New York Islanders for the Stanley Cup playoff warm up. 12 to go.

The federal court order today is a win for women’s health and shows that unnecessary restrictions in the NC abortion ban have nothing to do with safety & everything to do with Republican politics. Women’s reproductive freedom is on the ballot in November. apnews.com/article/north-…

As Charlotte comes together to grieve yesterday’s brutal attack, we also pause to remember the UNC-Charlotte shooting that occurred 5 years ago today. Our prayers go out to the victims, their families and the entire Charlotte community. #CharlotteStrong

Last night at the hospital and today in Charlotte I met with family members of the officers who were brutally killed, a wounded officer, medical personnel and fellow officers and told them the people of NC mourn this tragic loss and are deeply grateful for their service. -RC

Our hearts are with the families and co-workers of officers in today’s brutal attack, including two state Department of Adult Correction officers working with the US Marshal’s Task Force who were shot and killed. - RC

I am in contact with law enforcement concerning the tragic shooting in the Charlotte area, and we have offered state resources to help. - RC

Gov. Cooper’s budget includes an 8.5% raise for North Carolina teachers, ensuring they are recognized for their tireless work. We need to invest in our public schools, not fund unaccountable private school vouchers.

Great win for hard working NC UAW members and their families. North Carolina has the best workforce in the world to make clean trucks and buses. Appreciate UAW and Daimler leadership staying at the negotiating table until a deal was done. - RC

A solar eclipse, Earth Day on the Blue Ridge Parkway, our state’s very own NASA Astronaut and Dueling Dinosaurs — the wonders of science and STEM in North Carolina were on full display this month 🔭🦖🌎🚀

When it comes to sports wagering, it’s not fair to have to pay taxes on your winnings without being able to deduct your losses. Legislators should fix this.

Thanks for inspiring us, @astro_Christina. We’ll be cheering you on from Earth 🌎🚀

We are at a crossroads. One path prioritizes giveaways to the wealthy over the well-being of our state. The other envisions a future of success and security for everyone. Let’s make the right choice.

A (pre)historic day for the North Carolina museum of NC Museum of Natural Sciences. In this new interactive and immersive Dueling Dinosaurs exhibit, guests get to become paleontologists and investigate the fossils of two dinosaurs 🦕🦖

A budget that invests in North Carolina’s future.

This will lift starting teacher pay to first in the Southeast. With teacher shortages we have to work to attract and retain the best and brightest teachers, and it won’t happen if our neighboring states are putting down a better offer. abc11.com/gov-roy-cooper…

A remarkable piece of our state’s history. Thanks, @astro_christina 🚀

Shoot for the Moon, North Carolina! Today, Gov. Cooper hosted NASA Astronaut and North Carolina native Christina Koch at the Executive Mansion. Christina H Koch presented the Governor with an NC native loblolly pine seedling that has traveled around the Moon 🌕🚀

Today, Gov. Cooper presented his budget which includes an 8.5% pay raise for our teachers and $1B investment in public education. We must do the right thing and invest in our public schools, not taxpayer funded private school vouchers for the wealthy.
