“In an era of widespread economic uncertainty, North Carolina’s job creators need to know which of our leaders are willing to act to give them more of the certainty they need,” said NC Chamber President and CEO Gary Salamido. “The bold leadership displayed by Senator deViere and other NC Chamber Jobs Champions in 2021 will help our businesses push past lingering uncertainty to fuel opportunity and recovery for millions of North Carolinians. We look forward to continuing to work with Senator deViere in the year ahead to foster renewed growth and success across our communities.”

I look forward to collaborating with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle during the short session to build upon this momentum.”
