Cornelius, N.C. – Congressman Tim Moore addressed key issues on Thursday afternoon, sharing his thoughts on President Donald Trump’s policy changes since beginning his second term.
Moore, who was elected in November to represent North Carolina’s newly drawn 14th Congressional District, discussed topics such as federal disaster relief, the ongoing Ukraine-Russia conflict, and recent social media posts from the White House.

Tim Moore on Disaster Relief for Western North Carolina
Moore assured constituents that federal disaster relief funding for western North Carolina would remain intact despite potential budget cuts.
“I have regular communication with my colleagues in the House on the appropriations side, also with the President on this, and there is an absolute commitment to make sure resources are delivered,” Moore said. “Not only funds, not only the money, but also regulatory relief.”
Ukraine-Russia Conflict: Moore’s Perspective
When asked about escalating tensions between Trump and Ukraine’s leadership, Moore emphasized the importance of diplomatic negotiations.
“I believe that Putin needs to be checked in terms of his aggression,” Moore said. “I do sense that the President wants to see peace come about and may be the one to be able to broker that. If you’re going to negotiate any kind of peace, you’ve got to be able to talk to both sides, and both sides have to be able to trust you.”
White House Social Media Controversy
A recent White House social media post featuring a magazine cover with Trump wearing a crown and the caption, “Congestion pricing is dead. Manhattan, and all of New York, is saved. Long live the king!” has gained attention.
Moore responded to the post, saying, “I haven’t even seen that quote. Clearly, we don’t have royalty in America, but I do applaud the president and the job he is doing.”
New Congressional Office Locations in Mecklenburg County
Moore celebrated the opening of his new office in Cornelius Town Hall, where about a hundred protestors gathered outside, holding signs such as “Don’t sell out Ukraine” and “Your oath is to the Constitution, not Trump/Musk.”
In addition to the Cornelius office, Moore is establishing satellite offices across the Charlotte region to provide greater accessibility to constituents. His Gastonia office is located at 128 W. Main Ave, while the Cornelius office is in Room 110 of Cornelius Town Hall. More offices will open in the coming weeks.
