Jamie Ager never planned to run for office. But love for his community and worries for our country pulled him into the race. Now he's breaking through partisan politics to represent everyone in the 828.

PBS NC lost $4.8 million in annual funding
Here in #WNC, @BlueRidgePublic lost $330,000 in funding as a result.

A meaningful day for Western North Carolina. We broke ground on AdventHealth Weaverville with Governor Josh Stein and community leaders who helped shape this vision.
This new hospital brings care closer to home for families across the region.

WNC will receive roughly $200,000.🤨
Rep Edwards is failing #WNC #NC11.
