One year ago today, we came together around a vision for building an optimistic, forward-looking, and welcoming North Carolina.

I am excited to now call two amazing public servants colleagues - congratulations to Governors-elect @abigailspanberger.com and @mikiesherrill.bsky.social!

Go Canes!

Republican leadership in the General Assembly has failed to pass a budget, failed to pay our teachers and law enforcement what they deserve, and failed to fully fund Medicaid. And now they are failing the voters of North Carolina.

It’s the first day of the NC State Fair, which is open through October 26! Anna and I can’t wait for our visit this year.

Reader’s Digest ranks Asheville as the Nicest Place in America! Come check out Asheville and the rest of western NC to see all they have to offer. www.rd.com/article/ashe...

It was a full circle moment to spend the one-year milestone of Hurricane Helene in Lansing with people who inspired me so much during my first visit last year.

Hurricane Helene isn’t just a story of destruction and pain. It’s also a story of resilience and grit. The people of western North Carolina are strong, and we will stand by them every step of the way.

This evening marks the start of Rosh Hashanah. L’Shana Tova! From our family to others celebrating, may you be blessed with a happy, healthy, and sweet new year.

Cal Raleigh of Cullowhee in Jackson County continues to amaze — with two homers last night, he now has 56 for the season, tying Ken Griffey Jr.’s record for most by a Mariner and breaking Mickey Mantle’s for most by a switch hitter. He already has the most by a catcher. He’s making NC proud!

Hope everyone has a nice evening. It’s cool out there. #SunsetsWithStein

I joined @underthedesknews.bsky.social to talk about reasons North Carolina is the best state, our recent victory for public education funding, and ways we can thoughtfully use AI to make government work more efficiently to make people's lives better. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwzg...

My pops and I are happy to celebrate our birthdays together! Happy Birthday, Big A!

On 9/11, we honor the lives of those lost and reaffirm our commitment to our core values of freedom, justice, and the pursuit of peace.

Cuts to the SNAP program mean more public school kids will go without meals. www.ednc.org/how-federal-...

When it’s a slow Sunday afternoon, Lila knows how to bring the energy. #LilaZoomies

This is why in my budget, I called for a stipend for teachers to buy school supplies, in addition to making starting teachers the highest paid in the southeast. www.newsobserver.com/news/local/a...

Western NC is on the road to recovery. There’s still plenty of time this summer to plan an unforgettable trip. Just ask Thad White. www.dailyadvance.com/bertie/opini...

I’ve known Roy Cooper for 25 years, and I’m proud to call him my friend. He’ll make an amazing Senator for us. Here’s one North Carolina vote he can count on next year.

For as long as I can remember, Fergie has been my hero. He was a steadfast champion of civil rights and spent his life fighting for the betterment of others. He was also incredibly charismatic, charming, and kind. And, to my entire family, but especially my dad Adam, he was a dear friend.

Sometimes keeping it casual but always taking care of business @wral.bsky.social.

This week, Team Stein spent a couple of days volunteering in western NC with Habitat for Humanity and assembling disaster relief kits with Hearts With Hands. I continue to be proud of this team and their dedication to WNC’s recovery.

Lila and Harper love the mountains.

Harper is making friends in Asheville. Very glad there’s glass!

My faith teaches me that we are all children of God, no matter our differences.

Thank you, Daniel and Quinn, for having me on to talk about my task force on cannabis, opportunities to Rediscover the Unforgettable in western North Carolina, and the ways we can work together. Watch our full conversation here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9vf...

Happy Birthday to our son Adam. We love you, boy! (Here’s a pic from ‘08.)

Happy First of July! Fuquay-Varina gets our nation’s birthday party started early.

I’ve known and worked with Thom since our days in the state legislature and thank him for his years of service to North Carolina there and in the U.S. Senate. Anna and I wish him and Susan the best and much joy with their grandchildren.

Today was a good day.

Who’s surprised? Let’s put our scarce public dollars in our public schools! www.wunc.org/education/20...

The court’s decision supporting the Governor’s authority to make judicial vacancies maintains our state’s separation of powers. The court should have followed those same principles in its ruling on the Utilities Commission and Building Code Council, and I’m disappointed it did not.

Congress is considering passing legislation that would threaten more than 20,000 jobs in North Carolina and lead to a significant increase in electricity prices for families and businesses.     North Carolina’s clean energy economy is booming – let’s keep it that way. wcti12.com/news/local/g...

SNAP helps more than 1.4 million North Carolinians put food on the table.      The proposed Congressional budget would leave North Carolina with a $700 million bill in order to continue current SNAP benefits and vital nutrition services.    www.ednc.org/how-many-peo...

Juneteenth is a day of celebration but is also sobering. Too often, we believe that the long arc of history bends towards justice itself.     But WE bend the arc of history. It is up to us to recommit ourselves to fight inequality and ensure justice for all.     Happy Juneteenth, North Carolina!

Single-family homeowners with low to moderate incomes whose properties were damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Helene may be eligible for support through my administration’s RenewNC program. ncnewsline.com/2025/06/16/r...

Keeping North Carolinians safe is one of the Governor’s most important responsibilities. I am disappointed in the superior court’s decision allowing a State Highway Patrol that is outside the chain of command and unaccountable to the voters.

High construction costs, labor shortages, and supply chain issues all contribute to rising housing costs in North Carolina.

Most of what I know about fatherhood I learned from my hero, my dad Adam. I'm so lucky to be your son – and to be a dad to three amazing kids who make me proud every day.     Happy Father’s Day, North Carolina!

Stopped by Blue Moon Beach Grill in Nags Head with Anna and Adam and enjoyed their fish tacos! Happy Saturday, North Carolina!

Getting ready to enjoy my soft shell BLT from the Cyprus Creek Grill in beautiful Elizabeth City.

My job is to represent the people of North Carolina – not Democrats or Republicans – the people.

Losing is no fun, but the Canes played well and didn’t quit. There is so much talented youth on this team. I’m excited for next season. Hate that we have to wait for it to start.

Thousands of Americans look to FEMA when disaster strikes. As the start of another hurricane season approaches, we don’t want FEMA eliminated – we want it fixed. Here are some thoughts on how we do that: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

More Lila and Harper with emphasis on Lila.

My thoughts are with former President Joe Biden and his family. Anna and I pray for his swift recovery.

This Mother’s Day, I’m celebrating my mom Jane and my wife Anna. My mom did such a great job raising Eric, Gerda, and me, and Anna is a remarkable mom to Sam, Adam, and Leah. I’m doubly blessed! Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and mother figures across North Carolina today!

Svech gets us on the board. Let’s go, Canes!

A federal district court just ordered the certification of the NC Supreme Court election, reaffirming what we already knew — Allison Riggs won. You can’t change the rules of an election after it has occurred. Jefferson Griffin needs to concede and end this travesty.

Thank you to the NC Foundation for Public School Children for honoring me as a Champion for Children. I look forward to continuing to work alongside you in the years ahead to make sure our next generation has the resources they need to meet their full potential.
