100 Days That Will Change North Carolina
North Carolina’s state government must reduce costs and regulation on business, large and small, so that they can create jobs and prosperity.
If the people of North Carolina entrust Republicans with a majority in the General Assembly on November 2, 2010, we commit to govern the State by focusing on these priorities:
- Years of overspending by Democrats have given North Carolina the highest tax rates in the Southeast and a budget deficit of at least $3 billion; we will balance the State budget without raising tax rates.
- High taxes are killing jobs. We will make our tax rates competitive with other states.
Within the first 100 days you will see us:
- Passing The Healthcare Freedom Protection Act, exempting North Carolinians from the job-killing, liberty-restricting mandates of the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obama Care).
- Fighting to protect jobs by keeping our Right to Work laws.
- Reducing the regulatory burden on small business.
- Funding education in the classroom, not the bureaucracy.
- Eliminating the cap on charter schools.
- Passing the Honest Election Act, requiring a valid photo ID to vote.
- Passing the Eminent Domain constitutional amendment to protect private property rights.
- Ending pay-to-play politics and restore honesty and integrity to state government.
I hope that the Republican Majority will assign the redistricting to an independent commission as you have campaigned for the last couple of years. While it is tempting to use only Republicans for redistricting, it makes sense to do it RIGHT.

I’m so glad that the Republicans are in control of the NC legislature and look forward to seeing positive change!
As a homeschooling parent, one issue that is important to me is seeing dual enrollment reinstated so that our high school students have the opportunity to take challenging community college classes and to earn college credit at the same time. The Democrats have cut back on this program over the past couple of years and finally eliminated funding entirely. Beginning in the fall of this year, if a homeschooled or private school student wants to take a community college class, they will have to pay the NON-RESIDENT tuition rate. This is ridiculous! Meanwhile, the opportunity for public school students to earn college credits has been preserved through expanding the early college program. Will the Republicans be bringing back dual enrollment for all North Carolina high school students?
Thank you for your hard work!
God bless,
