Senator Berger’s service to North Carolina has left a lasting mark, especially on our education system. Having worked in both the Department of Public Instruction and the UNC System, I’ve seen firsthand how his leadership and commitment to education have helped shape meaningful, lasting progress for students across our state. Thankful for your leadership, @SenatorBerger

I ask that all my friends keep the NCSHP in their prayers, as we honor the memory of another Trooper who gave their life in the line of duty early this morning.

I am deeply saddened by the loss of Master Trooper Stien Davis, Jr., who passed away in the line of duty. Our hearts are with his family and the entire Highway Patrol family during this difficult time. North Carolina is grateful for his service and sacrifice.
