From a constituent in Durham, NCProtect civil liberties, reconsider NC's "Unmasking Mobs" bill
The proposed bill HB 237, titled "Unmasking Mobs and Criminals," raises serious concerns about infringing on fundamental rights and disproportionately impacting vulnerable communities. While the stated intent is to prevent concealment of identities, the broad language effectively criminalizes the us
From a verified voter in Charlotte, NCHouse Bill 237
House Bill 237 is a disgusting and shameless attack on the 1st amendment as well as the medical and healthcare rights of our citizens. This is a fascist trojan horse and it's painfully transparent. The only response my elected officials should give to this bill is to burn the paper it is written on.
From a constituent in Durham, NCReject Bill 237, threats to free speech and public safety
I strongly urge you to oppose House Bill 237, which aims to increase penalties for protest-related offenses and grant immunity to drivers who strike protesters on public streets. This bill poses a grave threat to the constitutional rights of free speech and peaceful assembly. It would have a chillin
From a constituent in Charlotte, NCAgainst banning mask wearing in public
I do not want you or any other member of the legislature wasting time trying to ban public masking. Wearing a mask continues to be important (and has been important, even pre-COVID) for people to protect their health and to prevent the spread of airborne disease. Banning it would be bad for public
From a constituent in Raleigh, NCOppose SB 237 - Masks are a valid choice for public health
I am writing in opposition to Senate Bill 237 as amended. I have family members who are severely immunocompromised. They routinely wear masks in public spaces to protect their own health. Recently, I was feeling poorly and wore a mask when I needed to go into a public space. The following day I test
From a constituent in Chapel Hill, NCPlease vote NO on House Bill 237, which prohibits wearing face masks in public. My family and I still mask indoors in public. We do this to protect ourselves and vulnerable loved ones from covid and its complications in particular. Please don't outlaw this personal family decision.
From a constituent in Raleigh, NCOpposition to Proposed Unmasking Mobs and Criminals Bill
I am writing to you today to express my extreme concern regarding the Unmasking Mobs and Criminals Bill that was proposed on Tuesday, May 7th, 2024. I am a constituent living in Raleigh, North Carolina. We are still living in a world where Covid is killing and disabling thousands of Americans. I rel
From a constituent in Durham, NCIt is deeply concerning that Speaker Johnson is aligning so closely with former President Trump and the extremist wing of the Republican party. Offering a prominent role to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has promoted dangerous conspiracy theories and opposed critical aid for Ukraine, represents a
From a verified voter in Durham, NCUrgent Call for Enhanced Salary Measures for North Carolina State Workers
I am writing to you as a concerned resident of North Carolina, urging you to consider a crucial adjustment in the upcoming state budget. Recent reports from the legislature's Fiscal Research Division and the Office of State Budget & Management indicate that North Carolina has a $987 million revenue
From a verified voter in Charlotte, NCHouse Bill 237 Committee Substitute
https://webservices.ncleg.gov/ViewDocSiteFile/87380 Why the hell is there a proposed edit to this bill suggesting criminalizing MEDICAL MASKS? This is psychotic. There are people who require masks to be out in public, and forcing them to remove it is more dangerous than holding a gun to their head.
From a constituent in Raleigh, NCReconsider HB237 for the livelihood of the chronically ill and aging population
House Bill 237 will kill me and my family. We are a group of immunocompromised individuals who choose, because it is OUR individual right, to still wear high quality masks and respirators in public and/or crowded areas for our own safety. HB237 explicitly makes illegal the wearing of a mask for ou
From a verified voter in Charlotte, NCWhy is congress threatening the International Criminal Court?
That letter to the ICC from those senators is atrocious. What a horrific disregard for international law. It's extremely clear that Israel is committing genocide. It's YOUR turn to do something about. Stop sending weapons. Stop sending money. For god's sake, we should have boots on the ground PREVEN
From a constituent in Raleigh, NCThe invasion of Rafah was supposed to be the line that doesn’t get crossed. Israel has crossed that line. Stop sending money and weapons to this genocidal regime.

From a verified voter in Charlotte, NCYour Inaction
When are you going to call in Police Chiefs for having officers that are members of known Neo-Nazi groups? When are you going to call on University Presidents to answer for why they called in Neo-Nazi Officers to attack peaceful protestors on their campus? When will you question why paid Israeli Mil
From a verified voter in Charlotte, NCAntisemitism Awareness Act
If you are a staffer reading this, I am begging you to read to the end. The Antisemitism Awareness Act voted on today is the scariest piece of legislation I have ever seen. A COUNTRY is NOT a race, and it is NOT a religion. It cannot be unlawful to criticize a country. This is an unprecedented encro
From a constituent in Chapel Hill, NCI am your Jewish constituent, writing to ask you to vote NO on H942. This bill will not make me or my family safer. H942 uses a contested and problematic definition of antisemitism adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. I encourage you to learn about the IHRA definition and ab
From a verified voter in Charlotte, NCYou Are Harming Americans
Alright, we are past the tipping point. At this point in time, if you are voting in favor of weapons for Israel, if you are not calling for a complete ceasefire, if you are not calling for a reevaluation of arms shipments to Israel, if you are not doing the BARE MINIMUM to end this conflict, you are
From a constituent in Durham, NCI cannot believe that we are sending riot cops into our universities to beat up peaceful protesters who just want an end to the genocide in Gaza. I am seriously considering not voting this fall because I see almost no difference between the democratic party and the Republican Party on Israel/ceasefi

The bill H.R. 3103, "Defending the Human Rights of Palestinian Children and Families Living Under Israeli Military Occupation Act," is crucial for the protection of human rights. It highlights the unequal legal systems in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and criticizes the detention of Palestinian chi
From a verified voter in Mooresville, NCNo one is above the law. Donald Trump is arguing to the Supreme Court that he should be allowed to commit crimes as president and not be held accountable. Why haven’t you spoken out against this unconstitutional argument? Do you really want a president who can order the murder of his political op
From a verified voter in Chapel Hill, NCI write to thank you, wholeheartedly, for voting in favor of the national security supplemental to support Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan and counter aggression from Putin's Russia, Communist China, and the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism, Iran.
