My wife and I grew up in Raleigh and chose to raise our children with the people who built us—family, friends, and church. As a prosecutor I saw the real-life costs here at home when politicians failed to solve problems—that’s why I ran for Congress. I’m running for re-election to fight for the families in North Carolina’s 13th District to be safe and thriving.

Securing The Border
Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi’s reckless open border policies unleashed a flood of illegal immigrants into our country overwhelming our communities, straining our resources, and putting American families at risk. We must secure the border, finish the wall, and enforce the law. Those who break our immigration laws must face real consequences as a deterrence or the flood will never end. An illegal immigrant who commits a felony should be sent to prison for a minimum of five years and then deported.

Ending Wasteful Spending
Joe Biden and his far-left allies in Congress walloped the poor and the middle class with devastating inflation. Their torrent of wasteful spending gave us two trillion-dollar deficits, undercut the value of the dollar, and brought high-interest rates. It’s time to cut spending and carefully scrutinize every spending bill to make cuts. I support a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution.

Supporting School Choice
Public schools are failing our children, neglecting the fundamentals they need to succeed in life. Instead, public schools push woke ideologies like critical race theory and transgenderism. Parents must have a voice in school curriculums and policies. I support school choice so parents can get their children out of failing schools and into schools that will provide the education their children need.
About Brad
Father and Husband. Former Prosecutor. Congressman.
I’m proud to call the Raleigh area home. My roots run deep here. My parents grew up in Wilson and Knightdale. My grandfather fought bravely in the Battle of the Bulge during World War II.
After graduating from Wake Forest University School of Law, I built my life and family here. My wife, Joanna, is a proud North Carolina State graduate. We are blessed to raise our two daughters in the same community with the same people who shaped me.
I first ran for office in 2024 because as a former federal prosecutor I’ve seen firsthand the devastating harm serious crime does to our communities. It’s a privilege to fight for the hardworking people of North Carolina’s 13th Congressional District.
Together, we’ve made progress, but we must sustain that new approach in Washington or risk a return to the broken policies that devastated our economy and individuals. That’s why I’m running for re-election—to keep building a safer, stronger, and more prosperous North Carolina for all of us.
