    NEWS RELEASE CONTACT: January 15, 2010 Barb Bradley President and CEO FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Office: (919) 834-6623 ext. 224 Fax: (919) 829-7299 Email: [email protected] Action on health reform Imminent: N.C. House Democrats who voted against bill represent districts that would benefit the most from reform Raleigh -- Major agreements on health reform are being made today as House and Senate leadership aim to get a health insurance reform bill on the President's desk as soon as possible. The three North Carolina House Democrats who are likely to stand against the bill on the final vote represent districts that would benefit most from health reform. Congressmen Mike McIntyre, Larry Kissell and Heath Shuler -- the three North Carolina Democrats who voted against the House-passed health reform bill back in November -- represent districts with uninsured rates among the top five in the state. A report by the Urban Institute demonstrates that in both uninsured children and uninsured all non- elderly, those three Congressmen's districts are among the worst five in the state, and all are worse than the national averages. Here are the numbers: These are compared to national averages of 9.9% children uninsured and 17% all non-elderly uninsured. "We hope all our leaders in Washington realize how badly North Carolinians need health insurance reform," said Barb Bradley, President and CEO of Action for Children North Carolina, a nonpartisan, statewide child advocacy group. "Health care premiums are rising much faster than earnings in this state, and North Carolina is losing employer-based health care faster than almost every other state in the nation.

  • PPP’S Latest Poll of North Carolina Voters Shows Current Attorney General Roy Cooper Leading Current Governor Pat Mccrory 43/41
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 9, 2015 INTERVIEWS: Tom Jensen 919-744-6312 IF YOU HAVE BASIC METHODOLOGICAL QUESTIONS, PLEASE E-MAIL [email protected], OR CONSULT THE FINAL PARAGRAPH OF THE PRESS RELEASE NC Governor’s Race Continues To Be A Toss Up Raleigh, N.C. – PPP’s latest poll of North Carolina voters shows current Attorney General Roy Cooper leading current Governor Pat McCrory 43/41. This is nearly identical to Cooper’s lead of 44/41 over McCrory in a June 3rd poll. Cooper is viewed much more favorably at 36/20 than McCrory of whose job performance voters disapprove of 33/48. Women support Cooper more widely than McCrory at 46/36, while men support McCrory more at 47/39. “Pat McCrory’s approval rating this month is the lowest we’ve found for him since he took office,” said Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy Polling. “His dealings during this legislative session have antagonized some conservative voters without winning him any new friends across party lines. The big question though is whether this increased unhappiness with him will persist or fade once the legislature has gone home.” Incumbent Republican United States Senator Richard Burr maintains a sizeable lead against all potential Democratic challengers. Burr leads Dan Blue 45/35, Grier Martin 47/33, Mike McIntyre 44/35, Brad Miller 46/36, Heath Shuler 44/36, and Beth Wood 45/34. Blue and Wood are viewed more favorably than unfavorably at 18/16 and 16/11 respectively. Miller is viewed as favorably as he is unfavorably at 14/14.

  • Fundraising by NC Members of Congress Jumps 4-Fold, 1980-2006
    Democracy North Carolina 1821 Green St., Durham NC 27705 • 919-489-1931 or 286-6000 • democracy-nc.org ——————————————————————————————————————————— For release: Tuesday, Nov. 20, 2007 Contact: Bob Hall 919-489-1931 Fundraising Grows Four Times Faster Than Inflation For Members of Congress from North Carolina Members of Congress from North Carolina are raising four times as much campaign money as they did a generation ago, even adjusting for inflation, according to a new report The report shows that North Carolina’s 13 members of Congress raised $17 million during the 2006 election, with 40 percent of the funds coming from political action committees (PACs) sponsored by medical groups, utilities, unions, Realtors, political party leaders, and others. After adjusting the value of dollar for inflation, NC incumbents with opponents raised almost twice what their counterparts did in 1992 and four times what was raised in the 1980 election. Incumbents with opponents took in an average of $560,600 from PACs in the 2006 election, compared to $384,900 in 1992 (inflation adjusted dollars). “Members of Congress are spending more time raising more money – and getting much of it from wealthy special interest groups that want a payback for their investment,” said Bob Hall of Democracy North Carolina, the nonpartisan watchdog group that analyzed the data. The research shows that challengers raised less than one third as much as the incumbents in the 2006 election, and only one succeeded – Heath Shuler in western NC’s 11 Congressional District. The challengers also got only one ninth as much PAC money as the incumbents. “The price of election is being bid up and up,” Hall said.
