Rep. Jarrod Lowery, a political figure known for his active engagement on social media, has recently shared his views on energy policies and political decisions affecting North Carolinians through a series of tweets.

On July 2, 2025, Rep. Lowery expressed support for former President Donald Trump, stating that he is “coming thru for us” by prioritizing the American people. The tweet can be viewed here.

Later that day, Rep. Lowery voiced his intention to challenge the Governor’s veto in an effort to prioritize working North Carolinians by reducing power costs and ensuring more reliable energy sources. He emphasized the need to “put People over Politics,” as detailed in his post here.

On July 3, 2025, Rep. Lowery criticized the “renewable energy mandate” implemented in 2008 under Democratic leadership. He claimed it led to a 62% increase in electricity costs for working residents of North Carolina due to replacing Appalachian coal with Chinese solar panels. He further argued that this shift benefited large corporations and wealthy investors while disadvantaging everyday citizens. The full tweet is available here.

In context, these statements reflect ongoing debates about energy policy and economic impacts on different sectors within North Carolina.
