Adams works effectively for people in her district
Rep. Alma Adams is running as an incumbent for House District 58. Through the years, she has worked diligently for the citizens of North Carolina and her district. She has made a significant difference in our lives because she is committed and she cares.
Alma has addressed issues like creating jobs and strengthening our economy. She values work and believes that if people work hard every day, they should be able to earn a decent living and take care of their families. Alma led the 10-year fight in the General Assembly for working poor people in North Carolina. She was successful in getting the state’s hourly minimum wage increased from $5.15 to $6.15 an hour.
Alma believes in quality jobs, a strong work force, small business growth and development, investments in job-skills training and the creation of quality new jobs for our state. These are the reasons that she supported the William Lee Act and Job Development Investment Grants Programs, which created more than 130,00 new jobs for North Carolina. She also supported legislation providing $1.7 million for retooling for displaced homemakers.
Alma works for the people. Let’s keep her in office.
