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 the owner of a gun store, I have a unique perspective on one of our Constitution’s most cherished rights. I believe that one of the solutions to violence in our country is a well-trained and responsible citizenry. I will never allow our Second Amendment rights to be infringed.
