Backed for protecting workers, rights, and democracy

Support comes from a broad coalition spanning labor, environmental, reproductive rights, democracy reform, gun safety, and Black political organizations. That mix suggests confidence in steady leadership that defends voting rights, expands personal freedoms, supports working people, and advances accountable government.

North Carolina State AFL-CIO

Ultimately, our membership enthusiastically endorsed former Governor Roy Cooper for the U.S. Senate.

While I disagree with Roy Cooper's tight control over NC politics via his close ties to strategist Morgan Jackson. Cooper undoubtedly has the best chance to capture this pivotal U.S. Senate seat, leveraging his statewide name recognition, proven track record as Governor, and broad appeal that could flip the seat from Republican control. I fully endorse Roy Cooper in both the Democratic primary and the general election. I hope he brings much-needed tenacity to a Senate Democratic caucus that often seems rudderless, fighting aggressively for North Carolina's priorities on the national stage.
