Campaign website
Woodall’s campaign website stated the following:
| “ |
Economy: Fighting Inflation and Creating Opportunity Stopping ESG: Seth will push back against the weaponization of ESG that we see in the business community. Investing in Infrastructure: Seth will ensure that all parts of North Carolina have access to what they need, such as high-speed Internet, adequate roadways, and capable ports. Reducing Regulation: Seth will fight back against overburdening regulations that hinder economic growth. Any regulation that is not necessary should be removed. Law & Order Community Engagement: Seth will advocate for programs that strengthen the bond between law enforcement and the communities that they serve. Election Integrity Secure Voting: Seth will implement and enforce Voter ID laws, as well as signature verification and other measures so that we know exactly who is voting to protect against votes being cast by those who shouldn't vote. Second Amendment Rights Education & Protecting Our Children Parental Rights: Seth will advocate for parents to have the ultimate and final say in their children’s education. School Choice: Seth will work to ensure that parents have the ability to decide how and where their children are educated. Workforce Development: Seth believes strongly that students should have access to a variety of educational and vocational opportunities during and after high school graduation. Increase Teacher Pay: My wife, Stephanie, was a teacher, and all four of my kids are in public school. I have seen the positive impact that a teacher can have on a child’s life up close. I’ve also witnessed the challenges that teachers face. We need to ensure that our teachers are respected as the professionals that they are. That means paying them more, and ensuring they don’t have to use their own money for school supplies for their students. Protecting the Life of the Unborn |
