NC VALUES ENDORSES FRED VON CANON FOR CONGRESS
NC Values Coalition launched its endorsements for the 2024 election, including an endorsement for Fred Von Canon running in North Carolina’s Congressional District 13.
“Fred Von Canon is an authentic conservative with an unwavering commitment to protecting families, growing the economy, securing our borders, restoring parental rights in education and healthcare decisions, and saving unborn babies from abortion violence. Fred will be a leader in Congress who won’t have to be convinced to do the right thing,” said NC Values Coalition Executive Director Tami Fitzgerald. “Coming from a meager background, serving his country in the U.S. Navy, and building a successful corporation headquartered in the 13th Congressional District shows that Fred has the character, work ethic, business experience, common sense beliefs, and commitment to the values that made this country great and make him the best candidate in this race. We know he will stand strong in Congress representing North Carolina families and the district where he lives.”
NC Values’ main focus before early voting is competitive primary races and will continue to release endorsements during the 2024 election season including General Assembly, federal, statewide and school board races. NC Values does not endorse in every race.
