North Carolina State Senator Jay Chaudhuri (D-15) describes his district as "changing, thriving, and energetic."

Chaudhuri says the public school system in his district is one of the best in the country. Looking forward, he hopes to help increase teacher pay for educators across the state.

Chaudhuri has served as a member of the North Carolina Senate since 2016. If given an extra hour of free time, he'd spend it with his kids.
