North Carolina is a special place, blessed with beautiful and productive land and
waters, from our ancient green mountains to our dynamic coastal islands. Yet our
clean air, water, and natural resources are under growing stress.
At the same time, the human needs and economic stresses on our people have never
been greater. Public health, education, growing cities, shifting economy, a changing
increasingly diverse population, and the need to promote opportunity for all our
people, call for our attention. Both our land and our people demand responsible
stewardship.
Unfortunately, the 2010 election cycle was not good for responsible leaders in our
state. Many of our best legislators lost their seats, and the new General Assembly is
under the leadership of those with short sight and a narrow vision of our future.
Those of us involved with efforts like the Headwaters Campaign are working now to
prepare for the 2012 elections. We will be undertaking a major push to return
North Carolina to responsible legislative leadership.
Please stay tuned for further details on our 2012 efforts.
Dan Besse
Chair, Headwaters Campaign
