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.

Mark will lead with both humility and strength, and we are proud to endorse him for Congress.”

NC VALUES COALITION RESPONDS TO LAWSUIT WHICH ENDANGERS HEALTH OF GENDER CONFUSED MINORS

NC Values Coalition Executive Director Tami Fitzgerald responded today to a lawsuit filed by organizations from DC, California and New York regarding the attempt to overturn the will of NC voters and endanger gender confused youth:

“This legal challenge is based both on outdated research and faulty constitutional arguments and constitutes an attack on the people of North Carolina who have passed a law protecting children from mutilation of their bodies and a lifetime of medical and mental problems.

“The plaintiffs ignore the growing body of evidence showing that these treatments are, in fact, experimental which is why numerous countries in Europe—Sweden, England, Finland, Norway, France—have either banned or severely restricted these treatments for minors.  The benefits do not outweigh the risks to bone development, brain development or higher rates of suicide as compared to non-transitioned individuals; what’s more, 80-90% of children who question their gender, if left alone, will resolve their confusion in favor of their sex by the time they are adults. HB 808 provides children with the opportunity to grow up before making life-altering, permanent medical decisions which will medicalize them for life.

“To date, on three occasions, thus far, the Circuit Courts in the 6th Circuit and the 11th Circuit have refused to find that similar laws are a violation of the 14th Amendment or the Affordable Care Act.”
