Ray Jeffers is the State Representative for North Carolina's 2nd District. While many of his friends moved away after graduation, Jeffers decided to stay and help make positive changes, first as a County Commissioner and later as a state legislator.
Over the next few years, Jeffers hopes to expand access to broadband and Medicaid to help support the district's growing population. He also wants to revitalize the aging infrastructure in local schools.
His first job was at a Sonic Drive-In.
