Thomas Tillis has accepted documented donations from sectors with material interests in "North Carolina Legislature's December 2024 Power-Stripping of Incoming Democratic Governor Josh Stein" but has no public statement, vote, or hearing record on the topic. Expected position: As a senior U.S. Senator from North Carolina and former Speaker of the North Carolina House (2011-2015), Tillis would be expected to weigh in on an extraordinary lame-duck special session that overrode Governor Cooper's veto to strip powers from the incoming Democratic governor-elect, including control over the state board of elections. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: During this exact period, Tillis was actively issuing statements and appearing in media on national topics, including his December 2024 announcement of his reelection bid. He was also publicly active in October 2024 rebutting Hurricane Helene misinformation. However, there is no public record of Tillis commenting on the NC legislature's special session or the override vote, even as the move drew national attention from CNN and other outlets.
