This month, we honor the power of visibility, the courage of our LGBTQ+ members, and the joy of unapologetic pride. We’re proud to stand with you — not just in June, but always. 🏳️‍🌈 #PrideMonth #Pride2025 #JohnstonCounty #jocopride

#MemorialDay isn’t just a long weekend—it’s a moment to remember the heroes whose courage, sacrifice, and bravery gave us the freedom we share today. To the fallen—and to the families who carry on in their absence—thank you. 🇺🇸

The Big"Beautiful" Bill passed the House this morning. Now's the time to call your Senators, even if they won't listen to reason. Here in NC, unfortunately we have two that are Trump apologists and sycophants. But that's not going to stop us. #ncpol #youngdemocrats #ncdemocrats

Thanks so much to Chair @abreezeclayton.bsky.social for coming down to JoCo to celebrate @allisonjriggs.bsky.social's win and to organize for 2026 and beyond!!! 🌞 Let's re-elect @anitaearls.bsky.social and win back our courts to build a better North Carolina! #ncpol #ncdemocrats #anewsouth

I believe in practical solutions, fiscal responsibility, local control, and common-sense health & justice reforms. And I believe in an independent Congress that is willing to make laws, control the purse, and oversee the executive and judicial branches of government. #ncpol

Hey there, #ncpol! My name is Paul Barringer. I'm a husband, father, lawyer, and Lee County native. I've taught Sunday school for the last twenty years, I'm a big fan of fried chicken and lentils, and today, I'm announcing I'm running as a Democrat for Congress in NC's 13th District!

ICYMI, union members submit 320,000+ signatures — more than double the required amount — to put a referendum on the ballot against the legislature’s bill banning public employee unions from collective bargaining. But no one is declaring victory yet: www.fox13now.com/news/politic... #utpol

What an amazing @ydnc.bsky.social Convention! We met so many focused, hard-working, and motivated #YoungDemocrats that are doing the work that needs to be done in the Old North State (too many to name here)!

A big strong guy, really big man, tears in his eyes, he came up to me and he said, "Sir... Thank you. Masterful gambit, sir."

Thank you Michelle Antoine of the Johnston County School Board for doing the right thing! 👍

Due to the efforts of YDJC (especially our VP), @equalitync.bsky.social & local advocacy groups, the JCPS Board has now postponed a decision to rollback discrimination protections. This is a great day for #lgbtqia+ youth and faculty and for #johnstoncountync #ncpol www.wral.com/news/educati...

This is what happens on X when you stand up for trans youth and teachers, y'all. They want a bigot fascist dictator so bad. #ncpol

Hey hey hey!! @youngdemsmv.bsky.social @ydarkansas.bsky.social @youngdemsagh.bsky.social @youngdemsjoconc.bsky.social @youngdemsofkitsap.bsky.social @michigandems.bsky.social

For now, we can breathe a sigh of tentative relief as the #johnstoncounty BoE is tabling the rollback of protections for #LGBTQ+ students and faculty. We will keep an eye on this one, but this is why public advocacy is so important. Thank you to our VP Ben Chapman for your work on this 💙 #ncpol

Public pressure is WORKING. The policies that were set to be rolled back tonight that protect LGBTQ students and staff is now being sent back to committee!!! Thank you to everyone who pitched a fit about this, and let's keep the pressure up! Stay vigilant 💪💙 #ncpol #youngdemocrats #johnstoncounty

The Johnston County School board is currently considering rolling back discrimination protections from LGBTQ+ students and faculty. We cannot let this happen. www.tiktok.com/t/ZT245ouY2/

A very wonderful international women's day to you all!

NC Senate Bill 234 is brazen. It's an attempt to rig the NC Senate in favor of land rather than voters (like the US Senate). #ncpol #sb234 ncnewsline.com/2025/03/05/g...

Less-than-longshot #ncpol news: NC Dems seek repeal of laws GOP lawmakers passed last session to exempt themselves from public records laws, embolden GovOps and reduce a fundraising edge the Democratic Governors Association had over RGA. MORE--> andersonalerts.substack.com/p/dems-unvei...

We're proud to announce the officers elected at our meeting yesterday! 💙 Adrian Winter Brakeley @awbrakeley.bsky.social – President 💙 Ben Chapman @ben-chapman.bsky.social – Vice President 💙 Ben Sanderford – Secretary 💙 Abby Durham @abbydurham.bsky.social – Treasurer #ncpol #ydjc #youngdemocrats

Another 11 counties were within 3% of being on this list. Our rural hospitals rely on Medicaid funding to stay open and the program keeps insurance premiums for everyone else from increasing. Source: NC-DHHS Annual Report. #ncpol #medicaid #HelpOneHelpAll

Join us for our officer elections!!! This is a great opportunity to step up and lead & build power here in JoCo. We will also be supercharging up our member committees and opportunities to be our Comms Director and Historian! SIGN UP HERE: t.co/RMHzUdI5Bf

The Winter SEC is underway!

Thom, when you said people "shouldn't bellyache" about Musk violating the Constitution, you handed us all the perfect greeting for calling your office. #timetotossTillis #ncpol

💙 💙 💙 Happy Valentine's Day! 💙 💙 💙 Here's hoping your standards are higher than Sen Thom Shillis' this Valentine's Day. #ncpol

We had a great canvass today, doing our part to fight against injustice going on in the #ncsupremecourt race right now. We even had first time canvassers, and they absolutely killed it! Let's keep the momentum and continue doing what we can to ensure democracy stays alive and well in JoCo! #ncpol

We just finished up our February Young Democrats of JoCo membership meeting at Vinson's Pub in Clayton, NC. We got to meet with CJ Robinson, a Young Democratic House CM and Leg Asst working in the NCGA. Join us for the next one (even virtually!) at the link below!

How is this the wording they decided to go with? LMAO it's an incredible Freudian slip. #ncpol #ncgop

Just a reminder that Ronald Johnson was re-elected right here in JoCo over Jeff Sullivan, a 30-yr education professional. And now he's going to prison. Republicans sure do love to elect criminals. www.newsobserver.com/news/local/c...

North Carolinians!! Take LESS THAN 15 MINUTES today and watch this video regarding the NC GOP trying to steal our Supreme Court election win. Just tell your boss you gotta shit really bad, and watch it then. youtu.be/2ZtBYYyeJNo?...

"During Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper’s time in office, the legislature made six attempts to restructure election boards and take power away from him. It appears new Gov. Josh Stein’s experience won’t be any different." #NCPOL #NCGA

Who are the 60,000 voters being challenged by Justice Griffin in NC's state supreme court race? I did a brief analysis to find out. Available at the link below. #ncpol www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/fxt46...

Go to ncdp.org/challenged to download a list of the voters being challenged in the NC Supreme Court election, and let us or the NCDP know if you or someone you know is on it. Jefferson Griffin can't get away with this. #ncpol

the verb is "steal" not "reverse"

We had weekly demonstrations at our state General Assembly and hundreds of people were arrested. We broke the R supermajority and they courted one Dem to flip to get it back. NC Dems don’t capitulate, but the equivocators become Republicans to get committee assignments and power.

There is no more important story that needs your attention than the fact that the GOP is trying to steal a North Carolina Supreme Court seat. Please watch, share, and take action. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xzh1...
