Make Stuff Cost Less
Lowering the Cost of Food & Groceries
The cost of food and groceries is skyrocketing in North Carolina and across the country. While farmers are getting crushed by tariffs and families are seeing prices rise at grocery stores and restaurants, big corporations and Washington DC insiders are doing all they can to squeeze every penny out of their customers. Roy Cooper is running for U.S. Senate to make stuff cost less, starting with the price of food and groceries.
Read Roy Cooper’s plan to make food and groceries cost less.
Making Health Care Affordable
Health care costs are spiraling out of control for North Carolina families. Insurance companies are blindsiding working people with surprise bills and denied claims and forcing them to pay more for plans that cover less. Meanwhile, attacks on health care coming out of Washington are spiking premium costs and threatening to take health care away from working families.
As Governor, Roy Cooper was able to bring Democrats and Republicans together to make real progress on health care, expanding Medicaid and helping hundreds of thousands of working North Carolinians get access to health insurance. He will take that same common sense bipartisanship to Washington to make health care cost less the way he’s done his entire career.
Lowering Energy & Utility Costs
Roy Cooper knows that North Carolina families are being squeezed by energy costs that are climbing higher and higher each year. Electricity bills in North Carolina have risen 22 percent since 2020 (WRAL, February 2026) with further increases on the horizon. Roy will work to deliver common-sense solutions that cut costs, hold utility companies including Duke Energy accountable and protect families from being ripped off.
