Senator Phil Berger, a prominent political figure, has recently shared his views on several legislative issues via social media. His statements focus on gender recognition, educational policies, and energy costs in North Carolina.
On July 2, 2025, Senator Berger expressed concerns about the treatment of women within societal structures. He criticized liberals for allegedly working against women by not acknowledging “there are two sexes — male and female.” He urged Governor Josh Stein to sign a particular House bill that he believes would protect women and minors in North Carolina.

Later that day, at 17:00 UTC, Senator Berger addressed the topic of educational policy. He stated that students should not face discriminatory policies under the guise of “DEI” (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion). He called on Governor Stein to sign Senate Bill 558 to eliminate these practices and stop the teaching of what he describes as divisive concepts within the University of North Carolina system schools. More details are available in his tweet here.
In another statement posted at 20:00 UTC on the same day, Senator Berger criticized Governor Stein’s veto of a bill aimed at reducing electric bills by $15 billion for North Carolinians. Describing Stein as a “Green New Deal Radical,” Berger announced his intention to lead the Senate in overriding this veto. This tweet is accessible here.
Governor Josh Stein is currently serving as the governor of North Carolina after winning the gubernatorial election in November 2024.
