Ted Budd represents North Carolina's 13th Congressional District and is serving his third term in the 117th United States Congress.
Ted brings an outsider’s perspective to Washington, having never held elective office. When an opportunity presented itself after redistricting opened up North Carolina’s 13th Congressional District in 2016, Ted decided to run and bring a businessman’s outlook to our nation’s capital.
Ted sits on the Financial Services Committee, where he uses his real world experience to roll back the restrictive regulations that strangle job creation in our country. Working at a young age on his family’s cattle and chicken farm and for their janitorial and landscaping business, Ted learned the importance of work ethic and common sense decision making. He brings his strong belief in God, family, and country to his job each and every day.
As a small businessman, I know what it takes to achieve the economic prosperity that will lift all Americans. Fundamentals like lower taxes, fewer regulatory burdens, and a smaller federal footprint, will give workers the best chance to climb the economic ladder and for businesses to start and grow. On the Financial Services Committee, I fight for these principles so that economic opportunity can be achieved by all.
