Working for a Strong North Carolina
Welcome to the North Carolina Senate Committee’s website. We’re proud of what we have accomplished in the Senate to keep North Carolina moving forward. Our Democratic majority in the NC Senate has:
• Worked for smaller class sizes to ensure our younger students get the individualized attention they deserve.
• Provided funds to help our senior citizens gain access to more affordable prescription drugs.
• Capped the gas tax to help consumers cope with rising fuel prices.
• Enacted landmark clean energy efficiency standards to reduce the burden of foreign oil, help cut pollution, and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
• Passed Jessica’s Law requiring mandatory sentences for convicted child sex predators.
There is still much to do if North Carolina families are to prosper in these uncertain times. As we move towards election season in 2008 it is imperative that we retain a strong Democratic majority in the Senate. Our Democratic majority will allow us to continue the work necessary to make North Carolina a safe, clean, and prosperous state. Please use this site as a forum to keep in touch with your Senator and to stay abreast of news from the Senate. 2008 is sure to be an exciting election year in North Carolina. With your support the NC Senate Committee is determined to continue fighting to make North Carolina an even better place to live.
