Issues

 

As a small business owner, Van Braxton knows we need a strong infrastructure to attract new companies to the region. 

As our state Representative, Van Braxton will stand up for our fair share so we can invest in Down East schools, roads and jobs - because we should get as much as Raleigh and Charlotte. 

Church trustee and Down East native Van Braxton will get Conservative results by cracking down on illegal immigration and protecting our rights.

  • Work to build infrastructure in our area, including water, sewer, highway and rail system improvements
  • Work to build a cooperative effort among local legislators to bring a regional approach to economic development
  • Work to connect Kinston and the GTP with Hwy. 264 with an interstate quality highway through Walstonburg, Greene County.

  • Work to reduce the Medicaid and Medicare burden that exist on county governments
