Welcome back to my monthly newsletter. Before I begin with updates from D.C., I would be remiss if I did not take a moment to acknowledge and pay tribute to Charlie Kirk, who was taken from us far too soon at the beginning of September.

Congress is back in session following an August work period where I had the opportunity to connect with constituents, deliver services, and hear their concerns. If I didn’t get to meet with you this time around, be sure to keep an eye out for upcoming events. You can also reach out to my office at any time; we love chatting with constituents!

Of everything I discussed with North Carolinians, the Working Families Tax Cuts certainly stood out as top of mind for many.
