State Senator 🇺🇸 Serving Iredell County and Mecklenburg County, NC. Co-Chair of the Senate @NCDOT Committee. #NCGA #ncpol

Mooresville, NC
Joined March 2014
It has been one of the greatest honors of my life to serve the people of Iredell County and northern Mecklenburg in the #NCGA Senate. Whether it’s improving transportation infrastructure, bringing much-needed efficiency to DMV services, standing up for parents and students, protecting taxpayers, or fighting for common-sense solutions that make our state stronger, I’ve never forgotten where I came from and who I’m fighting for. We’ve delivered meaningful results – and I’m running for re-election to keep working for the families and communities that make this region so special. Join our campaign at SawyerNC.com! #ncpol

I’m grateful for the Charlotte Observer’s endorsement in my re-election campaign for #NCGA Senate District 37 — which includes northern Mecklenburg and Iredell counties. Representing our region in Raleigh is a responsibility I take seriously, from helping put the county’s transit referendum on the ballot to making sure our region’s voice is heard in the majority. I’d be honored to have your vote. Early voting is underway, and Election Day is Tuesday, November 3. Join our team at SawyerNC.com!

A strong economy starts with the people who take a risk, open a business, hire their neighbors, and invest in their communities. I’m grateful to receive the endorsement of the National Federation of Independent Business for my record of standing with North Carolina’s small businesses. Small business owners deserve a state government that understands the challenges they face and works to keep North Carolina a place where they can succeed.

North Carolina families are feeling the squeeze every time they fill up, and today we took action to help make life more affordable. I was proud to support the Relief at the Pump legislation in the #NCGA Senate — suspending the state motor fuel tax and providing some much-needed breathing room for drivers, families, and local businesses across North Carolina. We’re providing relief today while continuing to be responsible stewards of the funding our roads and infrastructure depend on. I’ll keep working to make North Carolina a place where families can keep more of what they earn — and small businesses can continue to prosper.

Buying a tank of gas shouldn’t put such a strain on the family budget. North Carolinians need immediate relief from rising fuel costs. I welcome @SenatorBerger and @NCSpeakerHall’s call for a special #NCGA session focused on relief at the pump. I’m ready to get to work on solutions that help families keep more of their hard-earned money. Additional details to follow.

I appreciated the opportunity to join state and local leaders in Asheville for the North Carolina Alliance for Safe Transportation’s first traffic safety summit. As co-chair of the #NCGA Senate Transportation Committee, I remain committed to strengthening our distracted-driving laws.
