Expanding Access to Quality, Affordable Health Care
Cheri believes that whether you live in Chapel Hill or Cherokee every North Carolinian must have access to quality affordable health care.
What Cheri Will Fight For
Cheri Beasley is running for the U.S. Senate for the same reason she became a public defender, a judge and then Chief Justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court: the pursuit of justice and fairness, and a relentless refusal to see it abandoned. As Chief Justice Cheri worked to keep our courts accessible, reliable, and just. As a mother to twin sons and a public servant, Cheri has seen firsthand how the laws made in Washington impact and at times fail people in North Carolina.
Too many hardworking North Carolinians have been left out and left behind. Their concerns have been left unseen, unheard and unanswered. Cheri will fight to open doors and expand opportunity for all North Carolinians, no matter where they live, what they look like, or who they love. Cheri’s priorities reflect the conversations she has been having with people throughout North Carolina about their concerns, hopes and dreams.
Grounded in faith, hard work and service, Cheri has fought for the people of North Carolina for over two decades, and is always focused on how the actions we take now will affect future generations.
Cheri will bring that same commitment, sound judgment, hard work and compassion to fighting for a better future for all North Carolinians in the U.S. Senate.
Strengthening Our Children’s Future
Cheri believes that our classrooms should be places of opportunity for all children to realize their abilities, pursue their dreams and gain the skills they need for 21st century jobs.
Creating Jobs and Growing Economic Opportunity for All of North Carolina
Cheri believes we must make targeted investments in creating and growing good paying jobs, workforce development and expanding economic opportunity for all North Carolinians.
Supporting Small Towns, Rural Areas and Agriculture
Cheri believes that there has never been a more important time to invest in improving the quality of life, educational opportunities and economic stability of our rural communities.
Standing Up for Women’s Rights
As a working mother, Cheri knows firsthand the challenges women can face in the workplace. As Chief Justice, she took action to establish a family leave policy for court employees to ensure people could take care of their families and be successful in their jobs.
Taking On the Climate Crisis and Protecting Our Environment
Cheri believes that tackling the climate crisis is imperative to our health, economy, and security, and the consequences of inaction are already hurting the people of our state.
Protecting Our Fundamental Right to Vote & Strengthening Our Democracy
Cheri believes that the right to vote is among the most sacred rights in our democracy, and every eligible voter should be able to register, cast a ballot, and have that vote counted.
Honoring Our Veterans, Servicemembers and Military Families
Cheri believes that we have a sacred duty to the men and women who serve in our armed forces as well as their families and the communities who support them.
Keeping North Carolina Communities Safe
Cheri believes that everyone deserves to feel safe in their homes, communities, houses of worship, schools, and workplaces.
Reforming our Criminal Justice System
Cheri believes that we must take action to reform our criminal justice system, ensure equal protection under the law, protect civil liberties, and strengthen public safety.
Improving Housing Affordability
Cheri believes that home ownership and high-quality affordable rental housing are critical to families’ and individuals’ economic security and well-being.
Fixing our Immigration System
Cheri believes that America’s broken immigration system has been ignored for too long. Instead of playing politics, our leaders must focus on solutions that will fix the system and reflect our American values.
