Cheri Beasley
Cheri Beasley is a mom, fighter, and public servant. She has devoted her life to serving the people of North Carolina. After earning a law degree, Cheri worked as a public defender in Fayetteville. She won her first election as district judge shortly after she and her husband Curt welcomed their twin boys, Thomas and Matthew.
Cheri is the only candidate in this race to have won statewide twice. She also made history in 2019 by becoming the first African American woman to serve as Chief Justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court. As Chief Justice, Cheri took on the school-to-prison pipeline, implemented a paid family leave policy, and worked to make our courts more fair and transparent.
If elected, Cheri would make history again as the first African American woman from North Carolina. There are currently just 24 women and zero Black women serving in the U.S. Senate.
Cheri has seen how Washington has left North Carolinians behind – and how laws impact, and sometimes fail, people in NC. She is running for Senate because it’s time for that to change, and she will fight for the people of North Carolina every day in the Senate. Cheri Beasley has been endorsed by over 180 state leaders, including 100 clergy leaders, EMILY’s List, End Citizens United // Let America Vote, Congressional Black Caucus PAC, The Collective PAC, and more.
