Statement by Mark Meadows on Barack Obama's Visit to NC | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Raleigh, NC    

• "It is no surprise President Obama is taking time off to campaign for Hillary Clinton today in North Carolina. He desperately needs a liberal ally to save the legacy of his Presidency, and Hillary Clinton would represent a third Obama term. With Obamacare rates on the rise and fewer insurers in the marketplace, the people of North Carolina know better. They want a candidate who will repeal and replace Obamacare, a candidate who will stand with law enforcement and a candidate who will finally get our economy growing again. The only candidate in this race who will accomplish these goals and more is Donald Trump. Next Tuesday, North Carolina will send Donald Trump to the White House to Make America Great Again." - U.S. Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC)
