Sabrina Berry


Why did you decide to run for this office?

I’m running for NC House District 82 to make a positive difference in District 82 and our state. Sixty-one years after Dr. King shared his iconic dream in 1963, we have made progress but still have work to do to fulfill his vision of equality and justice for all.

It’s time to elect a House representative who will bring a different perspective and innovative ideas to our state government. It’s time to elect a fearless leader who will show up and speak up and work for universal equality for all people. I’m running to bring this type of leadership to District 82. I invite you to read my story and connect with my campaign visit sabrinaberry.net.

What are your top 3 priorities for serving in this office?

My platform aims to address systemic inequality and promote justice for all communities in North Carolina. The key focus areas are strengthening public education, expanding affordable housing access, creating economic opportunities, and transforming mental healthcare at the policy level to be equitable, destigmatized, and inclusive for all.

What experience/qualities make you a good choice for this office?

My life experiences have given me a deep understanding of the struggles facing working class families today. I know firsthand the battles many fights just to get by.

I embody the spirit of compassion and service at the heart of my faith. Now, I want to carry that spirit of justice and community empowerment to the NC House.

With violence plaguing our streets and many struggling just to stay afloat, I will lead with bold leadership and give innovative fresh perspectives.

I am a proven fighter for families, guided by wisdom, experience and faith. Together we can build a just community where all people have the chance to succeed.

Why did you decide to run for this office?

I’m running for office because of what we all want life to be like in years to come. We want a great education system—safety on our streets and children and teachers secure at school. We want to keep our money, not lose it to inflation, and give 10%, a tithe, of our income to state and local governments. We want our children to have opportunities. We don’t want our families broken up because loved ones can only find opportunities elsewhere; our state needs economic vision and growth.

What are your top 3 priorities for serving in this office?

Education, public safety, and the economy. When we consider our education system, we must fully fund the Opportunity Scholarship and strengthen public schools. We should be safe walking down the street, at school, and in our homes. There should be plenty of school resource officers, and we should have metal detectors at every entrance of our schools. The economy suffers when the government takes our money. Taxes on our homes are heartbreaking and out of control. State and local government spending are off the charts. North Carolina must limit the amount counties and municipalities can raise taxes on primary residences. Instead of regulating businesses, the government should regulate the government.

What experience/qualities make you a good choice for this office?

I am a Christian, husband, son, father, friend, neighbor, and fellow taxpayer. I hold financial and construction licenses and own a local business.
