Issues

Image
Agriculture

Agriculture is the backbone of America, and a way of life across much of North Carolina’s 8th District. Yet, farmers face unnecessary and overly burdensome government regulations and tax policy that too often stifles growth. Congressman Harris is committed to advancing policies that reduce regulatory burdens, promote innovation, and empower the agricultural sector. Congressman Harris recognizes the critical role agriculture plays in our communities, and will champion policies for those who feed our nation as a member of the House Agriculture Committee.

Economy and Jobs

A strong economy starts with free enterprise, low taxes, and hard work—not more government programs. Congressman Harris believes in unleashing American potential by getting Washington out of the way. That means cutting red tape, eliminating job-killing regulations, and restoring pro-growth policies that empower small businesses to hire, innovate, and thrive.

Education

Congressman Harris’s views on education are rooted in personal experience as his wife, Beth, along with his daughter, have dedicated their lives to teaching. Not only does he deeply value the role of educators in shaping the future, but he also believes the federal government has failed our students. Despite soaring spending, outcomes continue to decline. It's time to return control of education to the states and local communities, as our Founders intended.

Pro-Life and Pro-Family

As a pastor, Congressman Harris is deeply committed to protecting the sanctity of life and promoting the importance of traditional family values. By fostering a culture that honors life and family, we can build a stronger, more compassionate future for all.

Veterans

Veterans’ issues are deeply personal to Congressman Harris, whose father proudly served our nation during World War II. Congressman Harris knows the sacrifices veterans have made and believes we have a moral obligation to support them. With over 600,000 veterans in North Carolina, Congressman Harris is fighting to expand access to care, reduce delays at the VA, and ensure that every veteran receives the benefits they’ve earned.


Image
Spending and Limited Government

The federal government has grown bloated with reckless spending and overreaching regulations. Year after year, Washington bureaucrats funnel billions of taxpayer dollars into programs that yield little more than excuses. Our skyrocketing national debt has created a staggering financial burden on our children’s future and threatens our nation’s solvency. 


Image
Religious Liberty

Religious freedom is a cornerstone of our country and is enshrined in our Constitution. As a pastor, Congressman Harris is committed to safeguarding religious expression in schools and public life. Our nation was founded on Biblical principles and thrives when these values are upheld. 


Image
Border and Immigration

The Biden administration put our national security at risk by inviting millions of unvetted illegal immigrants to cross our borders, leading to tragic losses like those of Laken Riley, Rachel Morin, Jocelyn Nungaray, and others. As a member of the House Judiciary Committee, Congressman Harris is fully committed to prioritizing border security, restoring law and order, and protecting American citizens, including North Carolina residents, from the impacts of unchecked immigration.

2nd Amendment

The right to bear arms is not negotiable. The Second Amendment was designed by the Founders to protect against tyranny by ensuring citizens’ right to bear arms. Recent attempts by some to erode these rights threaten this core principle. Congressman Harris remains steadfast in defending Americans’ constitutional right to self-defense, resisting any efforts to undermine this fundamental freedom.
