“Millions of North Carolina seniors receive Social Security checks each year and nearly half of all seniors rely on Social Security for at least half of their income. This April, these seniors paid an average of $11,700 less in taxes thanks to the Working Families Tax Cut Act. The first thing Roy Cooper said when he entered this race is he opposed these very tax cuts which have put more money into the hands of North Carolina seniors. While Roy Cooper has spent his career trying to raise taxes on our seniors and working families, I will fight for families across North Carolina to make more and keep more of their money,” said Michael Whatley.
