Washington is full of backroom deals, insider trading, and career politicians getting rich while working folks get squeezed. The people are sick of the constant corruption, and I refuse to stand by and watch it happen.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our meet and greet in Oakley last night! I always appreciate the chance to listen, answer questions, and spend time with my friends and neighbors from across Western North Carolina. #NC11 #WNC #AshevilleNC

Our people deserve representatives who will put Western North Carolina first, not ignore us while they misbehave in D.C. My heart goes out to the young women who took roles with Congressman Edwards' office in the wake of his withdrawal from this race.

Thank you to the Boys & Girls Club of the Plateau for welcoming Amy and me during our visit to Cashiers last week. We appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the work you’re doing for young people and families across Western North Carolina. We are so grateful for everything y'all do!

Hot Springs showed up big! Thanks to everyone who came out to Big Pillow Brewing last night, it was wonderful meeting so many new folks. No matter where you live in NC-11, be on the lookout for an event near you! #NC11 #WNC #HotSpringsNC #MadisonCountyNC

Many thanks to my friend Mayor Tim Radford for showing me around Murphy over the weekend. It's always great to be in Cherokee County! #NC11 #MurphyNC #CherokeeCountyNC

Thanks to everyone who came out to our meet and greet in Brasstown this evening! Our campaign is going to every corner of the district, bringing folks from all across Western North Carolina together. I hope you'll join us! #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC

Western North Carolina can't wait any longer for a representative who cares about the issues our communities are facing. In Congress, you can count on me to keep my word and fight for every investment we can get. #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC #MaconCountyNC #FranklinNC

It was great to meet so many folks at the Hendersonville Fourth of July Parade on Saturday 🇺🇸 I'm so grateful to everyone who came up and said hello — and to our volunteers for always showing up despite the heat! #NC11 #WNC #HendersonvilleNC

Thank you to everyone who came out to our meet and greet in Flat Rock yesterday evening. We'll be in your neck of the woods soon, so be on the lookout for more events! #NC11 #WNC #FlatRockNC #WesternNC

On the farm, whenever something needs to be fixed we get to it. If an animal gets loose, we catch it. Things need to be done and we do them. It’s not always glamorous, but it’s important. It’s part of the job.

Amy and I had a blast at the Downtown After 5 Juneteenth Celebration in Asheville! It was great to meet so many new friends and supporters of the campaign.

It was great to visit Bullington Gardens in Hendersonville and see the work they’re doing to connect kids, families, and neighbors with the natural world. Some places remind you what community can grow when people put down roots and care for something together.

It was great to see so many friends, neighbors and fellow small business owners at GRIND Fest in Asheville this morning! #NC11 #GRINDFestAVL #Asheville #WNC

Truly representing Western North Carolina means taking the time to visit and learn the concerns of as many communities as I can. I'm covering every corner of the district — and I hope to meet you soon! #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC

It's great to be in Canton this evening for the screening of Papertown! If you see me, come up and say hello — I'd love to meet you and your family! #NC11 #WNC #CantonNC #Papertown

Such a great day in Spruce Pine! Thanks to everyone who came out to our meet and greet. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Mitchell County! #NC11 #SprucePineNC #MitchellCountyNC

Thank you to everyone who came out to our first rally of the year! This campaign is about bringing neighbors from across Western North Carolina together around shared values and building a better future for us all. I hope you'll join us on this journey! #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC #AshevilleNC

Join us on May 7 in Asheville for our first campaign rally of the year! We'll be joined by local bands, food trucks and supporters from across Western NC. This event is at Asheville Yards. Doors open at 6pm. All are welcome! Tickets are free but required — get yours at Jamie4NC.com/AshevilleYards

Great to spend some time in Waynesville today. Small businesses are the heart of our mountain towns. I'm grateful to my fellow entrepreneurs in the meat business Heidi and Karen from Grebleknud Meat Company for taking some time to share your story!

Thanks to everyone who joined us in Marion last night! It was great to hear from so many folks from McDowell. Western North Carolina is a special place and we're all so blessed to live here. #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC

My name is Jamie Ager. I'm a 4th gen. farmer running against Republican Chuck Edwards. I've spent my career building community through agriculture. Now I'm running for Congress in Western NC to fight for working people and root out corruption. Will you help spread the word?

Big thanks to everyone who came out to Oak and Grist in Black Mountain last night! We're so lucky to have a thriving local business economy here in WNC supported by our communities. I'll be proud to be the strong voice they deserve in Congress. #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC #BlackMountainNC

It was great to spend some time hiking on a beautiful Western NC day with Preston Blakely, the Mayor of Fletcher. I really appreciate hearing stories about Helene recovery, the challenges facing working families and the vision for the future of a great small town in WNC. @prestonb-nc.bsky.social

Found this family picture from 17 years ago! Having kids, building out the farm, running a wholesale meat business, and nurturing our marriage takes so much intentionality and hard work. I'm grateful for everything we've learned and appreciate Amy for putting up with lots of big ideas! #NC11 #WNC

Leadership in Washington has failed Western North Carolina. Many of our friends and neighbors are still struggling a year and a half later. We deserve a representative who will fight for us to get back on our feet and fully recover from Helene. #NC11 #WNC #WesternNC #HurricaneHelene

I am beyond honored to have received the Democratic nomination for US Congress this evening! Together, we’re going to flip this seat, build an economy that supports working families, and deliver the Helene recovery Chuck Edwards won't! Thank you so much for your support! #ncpol

If you're voting today you just might run into a member of the family! Ager family, friends and supporters are working the polls today. Make sure you head to vote before they close at 7:30pm! Go to iWillVote.com to find everything you need — and don't forget to bring a photo ID. #NC11 #WNC
