She also spoke about lower health care costs for seniors.

The NC Republican Party released a statement on her visit saying in part, "Instead of stumping for inflation creation bills at high-dollar fundraisers ... she should be doing something to stem the free flow of criminals and drugs into our communities."

This is the second time this year Harris has visited Bull City. She was here in March to talk about creating good paying jobs.
