FUQUAY-VARINA, N.C. (WNCN) — Congressman Brad Knott visited Fuquay-Varina as he continues to highlight small businesses in his district, but Wednesday he’s focusing on a business that’s especially meaningful as Thanksgiving rolls around.

The Congressman visited Cultivate Coffee Roasters, a coffee shop that’s been around for years. They offer up the classic menu items you’d expect like lattes and pastries, but also something else.

The owners run a delivery style food pantry inside of the coffee shop to help people in need year-round.

Only a handful of moderate Democrat senators must meet Republicans in the middle and support the clean continuing resolution.
To understand why such a simple task has turned complicated requires examining how we got here. Congress must pass 12 appropriations bills to fund the government.

The House has passed a Trump-endorsed Republican bill that significantly enhances the punishment for illegal immigrants who cross the border, particularly those who have previously been deported.
House lawmakers on Thursday passed House Rule 3486, which would allow the Trump administration to impose harsher punishments on illegal immigrants.
