Press Releases

Today, the Supreme Court of the United States released its decision on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. Lieutenant Governor Robinson states, "I am overjoyed with the decision by our Supreme Court - for decades we have been praying for a day like today and it is finally here. I have experienced the pain of abortion in my own life and know the long-term effects it can have on families.

“I have experienced the pain of abortion in my own life and know the pain it can cause families. That is a huge reason why I fight so hard for the life of the unborn. The unprecedented leak from our nation’s highest court is an atrocity. The draft that was leaked was not a final decision by the court, and it appears that it was released by a radical leftist to influence the final decision of the court. This person must be found and prosecuted. My sincere prayer is that our Justices stay the course and continue their work without the fear of public backlash.

Monday, liberal activists supporting CRT and sexually explicit materials protested at the Lieutenant Governor’s Office to talk about books in schools. They claimed the Lieutenant Governor was trying to “ban books.” Lieutenant Governor Robinson states, “We have never advocated for the banning of books. If you want to purchase and view a book at your local bookstore or public library, you should have the right to do so.

Informing the Future of North Carolina

In a 4–3 party line decision, the Democrat-controlled North Carolina Supreme Court ordered North Carolina Congressional and legislative districts to be redrawn. This decision reversed the bipartisan and unanimous trial court ruling. All three conservative justices dissented from this dangerous decision. Democrat activist Justice Anita Earls was the deciding vote, even though she should have recused herself from the case since her campaign was funded by the plaintiffs and the case was argued by her former law partner.

This week Attorney General Merrick Garland sent a memo to the FBI and state attorneys general; to prosecute parents they consider to be harassing or threatening school board members. First off, I want to state that anyone who crosses the line from freedom of speech to violence should be punished, however, the claim that parents are acting as domestic terrorists is preposterous.

Today, Governor Cooper vetoed House Bill 324; this bill was the first step in combating Critical Race Theory being forced upon our children in NC public schools. The Governor’s explanation for vetoing this bill was that “...this bill pushes calculated, conspiracy-laden politics into public education.”

Governor Cooper’s latest Executive Order (number 218), requiring that North Carolina develop massive wind turbine farms off our coast, is yet another example of his administration’s failure to recognize that our State needs affordable, reliable, and clean energy to grow our economy and quality of life.
