Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Brandon Lofton (D)

I am a problem solver. As a transactional lawyer, my job requires me to bring all sides together in order to solve problems and achieve results. I bring this same approach to legislation. I work with all sides of an issue to find practical solutions and achieve meaningful results for North Carolinians. For example, I worked across the aisle to increase innovation and competitiveness for North Carolina companies

I care deeply about our state. My life was changed by the investments made in our public school system. As a parent and as a legislator, I am committed to investing in our children and working to strengthen our public schools and promote opportunity in North Carolina.

I work for you. As a representative, it is my honor to work on behalf of my constituents and the well-being of our state as a whole. I work to promote accountability and transparency in our General Assembly. I will continue to oppose measures to weaken accountability, such as gerrymandering.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Brandon Lofton (D)

The economy, schools and voting rights are critical issues facing our state. North Carolinians are facing rising costs while schools and businesses are grappling with staffing shortages. I am working to help strengthen our economy and help more North Carolinians meet rising costs by sponsoring legislation to reinstate the Child Tax Credit, the Earned Income Tax Credit, increase childcare subsidies and help promote innovation and create jobs in the financial services and technology sector. Our children deserve a world-class education. I am working to strengthen our public schools by sponsoring legislation to help attract and keep the best educators, allow greater budget flexibility and increase the availability of nurses, counselors and psychologists. The right to vote is foundational to the functioning of our democracy. I have supported legislation to protect voting rights, end partisan gerrymandering and stand up for rights of North Carolinians.
