The pandemic has highlighted the need for affordable health care. The reopening of the Health Insurance Marketplace will help us work toward our goal of expanding access to affordable, quality health care. https://t.co/5lRalAwJMY — PolitiTweet.org

Getting shots in arms as quickly and as equitably as possible is a top priority. Vaccine providers have done a phenomenal job so far - and we will all continue to work together for the people of North Carolina. https://t.co/myfEAcDlLM — PolitiTweet.org

North Carolina has the best educators in the country who consistently go above and beyond for our students. Congratulations to Maureen Stover! We're cheering you on. https://t.co/KsWEFVSpvd — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

We're still receiving limited vaccine supply from the federal government, but we're working to ensure North Carolinians in each community have a spot to get their shot. Today, Gov. Cooper visited the Piedmont Health SeniorCare center in Pittsboro to see patients get the vaccine. https://t.co/W610DtSMLc — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s continue to follow the safety measures in place — staying at home, wearing our masks, and social distancing. If we work to keep ourselves and each other safe, we will beat this virus and move to better times ahead. https://t.co/OJArm23YVv — PolitiTweet.org

As we remember the 35th anniversary of the Challenger explosion, I’m grateful for men and women of courage who are willing to test the limits of human endurance and exploration. - RC — PolitiTweet.org

North Carolina’s top priority is getting vaccines into arms as quickly and equitably as possible. Tracking this data helps our state ensure that we are improving access to the vaccine for communities of color. https://t.co/BgV8e5WFUe — PolitiTweet.org

Today, Gov. Cooper extended the Modified Stay at Home Order, the evictions moratorium and to-go and delivery sales for mixed beverages. These Orders will help struggling families and businesses as we continue working to slow the spread of COVID-19. https://t.co/orpmvZ4V2p https://t.co/jqEYnqekuG — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

But we have more work to do. Let’s continue wearing our masks, working hard to get people vaccinated, and taking this seriously. If we work to keep ourselves and each other safe, we will defeat this virus and move to better times ahead. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

Although we are often frustrated and weary, we are entering a time of hope. The vaccine team and health providers are working night and day getting more vaccines to people and more are on the horizon. Our COVID numbers are stabilizing. We are charting a path forward. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

To support businesses working to serve customers during difficult times, I will extend the order to allow to-go and delivery sales for mixed beverages. These orders will be in effect through March 31, 2021. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

I'm extending a moratorium on evictions to help people stay in their homes during the pandemic. Health experts have shown that keeping people in their homes is an important way to slow the virus. An evictions moratorium is important as we stay under a Modified Stay at Home Order. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

I’m announcing that we will extend our Modified Stay at Home Order until February 28, 2021. That means the 10 PM curfew is still in place, as are the mask mandate, mass gathering limits, and capacity limits for businesses and retail. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

While it's good to see our numbers are decreasing and stabilizing they remain too high. We need to keep up our efforts to slow the spread of the virus. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

With the General Assembly back in session, I hope to work with legislators to appropriate recently-passed federal funds to keep helping people and small businesses that are hurting. There is significant need out there and we hope to provide more funds to expand the HOPE program. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

We set up the HOPE Program to relieve some of that strain by assisting with rent and utility payments. As of this week, the HOPE Program has paid nearly $130 million to landlords & utilities for more than 34,000 low-income North Carolinians who faced eviction or utility shut off. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

It'll get better as NC gets more vaccine and more providers giving it out. Until then, we need to keep up the 3Ws, plan and wait as hard as that is. I want every single person to be immunized to prevent this cruel disease. We’ll make sure everyone has a spot to get their shot. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

I know this is a maddening and frustrating time for many of you. Hundreds of thousands of you have had success in getting vaccinated, but many more of you haven’t been able to get appointments or have been put on waiting lists. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

Yesterday we got some good news when we learned that the federal government will increase vaccine shipments to states by 16% over the next three weeks. That will help, but we still need much more. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

The sticking point right now for our state and the nation is not enough vaccine. We do have thousands of shots, but there are millions of people who need two of them. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

Our top priority is getting vaccines to people as quickly and equitably as possible. As of today, NC has administered 99.8% of the first doses we've received from the federal government. I’m grateful to @ncdhhs, @NCEmergency and health providers for getting these shots out there. — PolitiTweet.org
