NC VALUES RESPONDS TO RECENT PRESS REPORTS REVEALING JEFF JACKSON’S INVOLVEMENT WITH A CONVICTED SEXUAL PREDATOR

In response to recent press reports revealing Jeff Jackson’s involvement with a convicted sexual predator, Tami Fitzgerald, Executive Director of NC Values Coalition, stated:

“If Jeff Jackson thinks he can deny getting caught embracing a convicted child molester, he’s wrong.  Chad Turner’s conviction and status as a registered sex offender were common knowledge in the legislature where Jackson served, and especially in Charlotte where Jackson lived.  Turner’s status as a sex offender received widespread press coverage, and Jackson’s extensive social media footprint shows him with Turner many times.  Jeff Jackson needs to come clean with voters.”

PR: NC Values applauds the House and Senate’s decision to increase funding for Opportunity Scholarships

THE NC VALUES COALITION APPLAUDS THE HOUSE AND SENATE’S DECISION TO INCREASE FUNDING FOR OPPORTUNITY SCHOLARSHIPS

NC Values Executive Director Tami Fitzgerald made a statement today in support of the NC General Assembly’s vote to fund Opportunity Scholarships:

“I applaud the House and Senate’s decision to agree to increase funding for Opportunity Scholarships in response to the overwhelming number of applicants who are eager to send their children to successful schools of their choice. Indoctrination has taken priority over teaching basics like reading, math, history and science, and it shows in test scores. Parents are tired of their children being subjected to indoctrination with sexually explicit books such as Lawn Boy, Gender Queer, George, and impromptu CRT lectures. The freedom for parents to choose which school is best for their child, regardless of income, is one of our most basic liberties.”
