Rep. David Rouzer

North Carolina is both a top cotton-producing state and the country’s #1 textile manufacturer, contributing over $300 million a year to our state’s economy.

U.S. Department of Agriculture’s investment in U.S. cotton through the Great American Cotton Plan will support growers and strengthen the textile industry across North Carolina.

Saddened to hear of the passing of NASCAR legend Kyle Busch. His passion for racing, competitive spirit, and impact on the sport inspired fans across North Carolina and the country.

My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, team, and all those mourning this loss.

Congratulations to 2026 Congressional Art Competition winner Jazmin Morales of Heide Trask Senior High School!

Her powerful piece, “Freedom Feathers,” will be proudly displayed in the U.S. Capitol for the next year, where visitors from across the country will experience her creativity and talent firsthand.

Thank you to all the students who participated in this year’s competition, and congratulations once again to Jazmin!
