Friends and Neighbors,
My name is Laura Pichardo, and I am honored to be running to represent NC State Senate District 23, which encompasses the wonderful people of Caswell, Person, and Orange Counties.
I believe that government should work for the people—not the other way around. Families deserve to keep more of what they earn, businesses need an environment where they can flourish, and every community within NC State Senate District 23 deserves access to quality healthcare, excellent schools, and safe neighborhoods.
As an Accounts Payable Business Analyst with experience in both corporate America and small business, I have dedicated my career to solving financial challenges, enhancing efficiency, and ensuring responsible stewardship of taxpayer and business dollars. These same skills are essential in Raleigh as North Carolina faces rising costs, rapid growth, and increasing demands on state resources.
I am running because our district deserves practical and fiscally responsible leadership that delivers tangible results instead of mere political rhetoric.
My priorities include:
Strengthening rural and urban healthcare by improving access to physicians, mental health services, and specialty care while supporting our local hospitals and healthcare providers in NC State Senate District 23.
Keeping North Carolina affordable by protecting homeowners from excessive property taxes, supporting balanced budgets, and reducing unnecessary government spending.
Growing our economy by supporting agriculture, manufacturing, small businesses, workforce development, and infrastructure that attracts good-paying jobs.
Supporting public safety by ensuring law enforcement officers have the resources they need to protect our communities.
Expanding broadband and infrastructure in NC State Senate District 23 so every family, student, and business has access to the tools necessary to compete in today's economy.
Investing in education by supporting teachers, strengthening career and technical education, and preparing students for successful careers without excessive bureaucracy.
My commitment to public service began long before this campaign. In 2020, I advocated for expanding high-speed internet access throughout Caswell County because I believed every family deserved reliable connectivity for work, education, and healthcare. From 2022 through 2026, I proudly served as Treasurer of the Caswell County Republican Party, working to strengthen our local organization while building relationships across our communities.
I am dedicated to listening to the people I represent in NC State Senate District 23, making thoughtful decisions, and always prioritizing their interests. Whether you reside in a rural farming community, a growing town, or a suburban neighborhood, you deserve a senator who is accessible, accountable, and focused on delivering real solutions.
Together, we can build a stronger District 23—one where families can afford to stay, businesses can succeed, agriculture continues to thrive, and future generations have every opportunity to prosper.
Thank you for your support, your encouragement, and your vote.
Sincerely,
Laura Pichardo, MBA
Republican Candidate
NC State Senate District 23
