Campaign themes
2016
Ferrell's campaign website highlighted the following issues:
| “ |
Public education is a priority: I know how much our public schools mean to North Carolina, and I will remind those in the NC House daily that the people of District 36 value a strong public school system. Women and healthcare access matter: I don’t believe politics should be at play when our health is on the line. As your NC House 36 representative, I aim to keep the conversation going about the healthcare North Carolinians deserve. Working together is best: As your House Representative, I will lead by listening to you, making decisions based on good information, and striving to find common ground with all of my teammates.[1] |
