The North Carolina Chamber today named state Representative Michael H. Wray a 2023 Jobs Champion in its annual How They Voted report. 

How They Voted details state legislators’ voting records on bills identified as critical to preserving and enhancing North Carolina’s position in the global race for jobs. 

Wray was recognized as a Jobs Champion for voting with the Chamber’s Jobs Agenda at least 80 percent of the time during the 2023 legislative session.

“I am honored to be recognized by the North Carolina Chamber as a 2023 Jobs Champion,” Wray said. “I share this honor with the local government leadership and economic development professionals in Halifax, Northampton and Warren counties that comprise District 27. While there is much work to be done, we all can take pride in our joint efforts to bring good paying jobs to our communities.”

Chamber President and CEO Gary Salamido said, “As we work to maintain our status as the top state for business, North Carolina’s job creators need to know which of our leaders are willing to act to keep us competitive. The bold leadership displayed by Representative Wray and other NC Chamber Jobs Champions in 2023 will help our businesses continue to invest in North Carolina and its people. We look forward to continuing to work with Representative Wray in the year ahead to foster continued growth and success across our communities.”

Senator Bobby Hanig was also named a 2023 Jobs Champion.
