Why Jason?
Rep. Jason Saine has been an effective leader and champion for conservative causes for decades in Lincoln County and North Carolina.
Jason has been at the frontline of tax reform and job growth in North Carolina. Since Jason joined the North Carolina General Assembly in 2011 North Carolinians have seen more than $4 billion hard earned returned to their pockets through tax reform. Jason continues to fight for further smart, conservative tax reform in his role as House Senior Finance Chair and now as House Senior Appropriations Chair.
The numbers speak for themselves: North Carolina has had the fastest growing economy since 2013 in no small part thanks to Jason's leadership.
Jason has been at the forefront of innovation. From being named the Public Leadership Award winner by the North Carolina Technology Association only one year into his first full term, to being a key member of the FCC Intergovernmental Advisory Committee, Jason has been a leader in bringing technology and new investments to North Carolina.

Clean Energy Champion
Chambers for Innovation
With more local NC chamber and economic development leaders recognizing that clean energy means growing jobs and investments, it might come as no surprise that several recently stepped forward with “Clean Energy Champion” awards for legislators leading the charge in this area.
Lincoln Economic Development Association Executive Director, Cliff Brumfield, presented a Clean Energy Champion award to Rep. Jason Saine (R-97, Lincoln County.)
“I’m grateful to receive this award from local chamber and economic development leaders,” said Rep. Saine. “Your voices truly matter on these issues, and it’s great to work together to advance clean energy jobs and investments in our state.”
Rep. Saine, Senior Chairman of the House Finance Committee, has been a consistent supporter of clean energy in the State House, and several times has provided the leadership to move the ball forward on energy policy in his pursuit to bring cutting edge technologies to NC.
