Rodney will provide a new, fresh, youthful, yet mature approach to the myriad of issues and challenges we face with practical and real solutions.”
Tyrone Williams

“In this world that we live in, things just don’t happen, you have to make them happen. Another scenario is that you only have one time for a first impression and I say it’s time for a change.

“Rodney Pierce is the best candidate to represent our district, our communities and homes, schools, economic development and cultural enrichment speaking out on our behalf in Raleigh. Again, I say it’s time for a change!”
Venus Spruill
Retired Northampton County Clerk of Superior Court
“Rodney is a teacher, and he has spent his career in some of the most poorly-funded districts in the state. I’ve known Rodney for almost ten years because he has been one of our state’s most consistent advocates for school children. His passion for educational equity and mine are closely aligned. We need him in Raleigh bringing voice for those kids, their families, and their communities.”

“The Network for Public Education Action is proud to endorse Rodney D. Pierce for NC House of Representatives, District 27 – Halifax, Northampton, Warren. Rodney knows the challenges facing his district’s public schools because (he’s) a classroom teacher and a parent of current students in the Halifax, Northampton, and Warren County Schools. Rodney’s main goal is to provide resources for students, teachers and administrators in accordance with the Leandro Plan.”

“Rodney Pierce is a father, award-winning educator, historian and a longtime champion of ‘neglected northeast’ North Carolina.
