The person behind the name
Tim Moore’s public career runs from a Cleveland County law practice and a state House seat first held at thirty-two to a record five terms as Speaker of the North Carolina House and, since January 2025, the seat in Congress for the 14th District west of Charlotte. [2][60][62]
Moore was born in Kings Mountain, Cleveland County, on October 2, 1970, according to the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress. His official biography describes him as a lifelong resident of Kings Mountain, where he still lives, and as the father of two sons, McRae and Wilson. [2][1]
Education and professional preparation
He graduated from Kings Mountain High School in 1988, attended Campbell University and completed a B.A. in political science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1992, then earned a J.D. from the Oklahoma City University School of Law in 1995. After passing the North Carolina bar he returned to Cleveland County, where his official biography says he has practiced law for the length of his career. Bar records and the details of that practice were not part of this review. [2][1]
A public life that began in the state House
Moore took his seat in the North Carolina House of Representatives in 2003 and served eleven terms; the 2023 House directory lists him as Speaker for District 111, Cleveland and Rutherford counties. He became chairman of the Rules Committee in 2011, when Republicans took over the chamber, and in 2015 he succeeded Thom Tillis as Speaker; he was elected to a record five two-year terms in the chair and served through the end of 2024. Destin Hall, whom top House Republicans had backed as his successor in October 2023, was chosen by the caucus on November 19, 2024 to take the chair in January 2025. [2][42][60][61]
On November 7, 2023, weeks after the General Assembly enacted a congressional map that created a new Republican-leaning 14th District including his hometown of Kings Mountain, Moore announced for Congress. The campaign posted President Trump’s endorsement on February 23, 2024; on March 5, 2024 he won the Republican primary with 55,644 votes, 74.99 percent, and on November 5, 2024 he defeated Pam Genant, 232,987 to 168,269. He was sworn in on January 3, 2025 and sits on the Committee on Financial Services and the Committee on the Budget. [60][5][9][8][62][1]
In the March 3, 2026 Republican primary he took 42,545 votes, 83.02 percent, against Kate Barr. His Democratic opponent on November 3 is LaKesha Womack, who won her party’s primary with 52.24 percent and describes herself as a consultant, minister and chief strategy officer of an emerging community development financial institution. [7][6]
A note on the campaign’s superlatives. The campaign says that under his leadership the state “delivered the single largest personal income tax cut in state history” and balanced the budget every year. Those are the campaign’s characterizations of a decade of budgets and tax laws; this review did not measure them against the state’s revenue records, and it cites the individual laws it could read. [3]
Life & public service
From a Cleveland County law practice to the Speaker’s chair and a seat on Financial Services, the documented milestones show how his record was built.
Medicaid expansion, the abortion law and Moore v. Harper
Voted Aye on the March 23 concurrence enacting Medicaid expansion and on the May 16 override enacting the law that limits abortion after the twelfth week of pregnancy; on June 27 the Supreme Court decided the redistricting case that bears his name against the legislature’s position. [56][76][58][77][59]
A campaign for Congress
Announced on November 7, 2023 for the redrawn 14th District after saying he would not seek another term as Speaker. [60]
Sworn in; the H.R. 1 votes; a disclosure deadline missed
Took office January 3, 2025 and was named vice chair of a Financial Services subcommittee; voted Yea on H.R. 1 on May 22 (215–214) and Aye on July 3 (218–214); disclosed a dozen April stock trades on June 13, after the 45-day deadline. [62][16][26][28][65]
Accomplishments, in the record
Bill pages, session laws and roll-call transcripts of the General Assembly, the Clerk’s roll calls, a Supreme Court opinion and the member’s own releases establish the following work. Outcomes are described at the level those records support, with shared credit where the measure was another legislator’s bill.
Speaker of the North Carolina House for five terms
The Biographical Directory records Moore as Speaker from 2015 to 2024; the Associated Press counted a record five two-year terms in the chair, and the 2023 House directory lists him as Speaker for District 111 in his eleventh term. A Speaker’s name appears on few bills; his record is the record of what his chamber passed, and the roll-call transcripts below show his own vote, recorded as “Moore (Speaker)” or “T. Moore (Speaker)”, on each measure. [2][60][42][56][44]
Voter ID and the sanctuary-city laws
Senate Bill 824 of 2018, implementing the voter-identification constitutional amendment, became law over the Governor’s veto; the House override carried 72–40 on December 19, 2018 with Moore voting Aye. House Bill 318 of 2015, the Protect North Carolina Workers Act, which the session law describes as an act to require E-Verify compliance in certain government contracts, to bar the use of certain consular documents as identification and to prohibit the adoption of sanctuary city ordinances, passed on a 70–43 concurrence vote on September 29, 2015 with Moore voting Aye and was signed on October 29, 2015. House Bill 10 of 2024, an act to require compliance with immigration detainers and administrative warrants, with a part headed “Require Sheriffs to Cooperate with ICE”, became law when the House overrode the veto 72–44 on November 19, 2024, again with Moore voting Aye. These are recorded votes and the exercise of the Speaker’s scheduling power, not authorship: the bills carried other members’ names. [47][48][49][50][74][51][52][78]
House Bill 2, and its reset a year later
Moore was a co-sponsor of House Bill 2, the Public Facilities Privacy & Security Act, whose primary sponsors were Representatives Bishop, Stam, Howard and Steinburg; in the 2016 Second Extra Session the bill was filed, passed both chambers and was signed on March 23, 2016, and he voted Aye on its passage, 82–26. On March 30, 2017 he voted Aye, 70–48, on House Bill 142, the “Reset of S.L. 2016-3”, which repealed the 2016 law, preempted state and local regulation of access to multiple-occupancy restrooms except by act of the General Assembly and barred local ordinances on private employment practices or public accommodations until December 1, 2020; the Governor signed it the same day. The record shows both votes; readers may weigh the reversal for themselves. [43][44][45][46][75]
Medicaid expansion and the twelve-week abortion law
House Bill 76 of 2023, Access to Healthcare Options, sponsored by Representatives Lambeth, White, Wray and Humphrey, extended Medicaid coverage, under the name NC Health Works, to the adult group described in section 1902(a)(10)(A)(i)(VIII) of the Social Security Act, the Medicaid expansion group, effective once the budget act became law; Moore voted Aye on the final concurrence, 87–24, on March 23, 2023, and all 24 noes came from his own caucus. The Governor signed it on March 27, 2023. On May 16, 2023 the House overrode the veto of Senate Bill 20, the Care for Women, Children, and Families Act, 72–48, with Moore voting Aye and the vote dividing exactly on party lines; the act makes abortion lawful during the first twelve weeks of pregnancy and after that only in the circumstances it lists, including rape or incest through the twentieth week, a life-limiting anomaly through the twenty-fourth and a medical emergency. [55][56][76][57][58][77]
Moore v. Harper
As Speaker, Moore was the named petitioner in Moore v. Harper, No. 21–1271, the legislature’s challenge to the North Carolina Supreme Court’s 2022 ruling striking the 2021 congressional map. The legislative defendants argued that the Elections Clause vests state legislatures with authority to set rules for federal elections free from restrictions imposed under state law. On June 27, 2023 the Court affirmed the state court’s judgment, 6–3, in an opinion by Chief Justice Roberts joined by Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, Kavanaugh, Barrett and Jackson, holding that the Elections Clause does not insulate state legislatures from the ordinary exercise of state judicial review; Justice Thomas dissented, joined by Justice Gorsuch and in part by Justice Alito. The case established the question; the Court answered it against the petitioners. [59]
Bills, and how many became law
GovTrack lists 31 bills and resolutions sponsored by Moore in the 119th Congress. Three have passed the House: H.R. 2240, the Improving Law Enforcement Officer Safety and Wellness Through Data Act, on May 15, 2025, with 22 cosponsors including four Democrats; H.R. 4478, the TRUST Act, a two-page bill on the examination cycle for banks under $6 billion in assets, on May 12, 2026; and H.R. 4238, on accountability in the Small Business Administration’s disaster loan program, on June 23, 2026. None has been enacted, and passage by one chamber is not enactment. [12][13][15][14]
Among the bills that have not moved, his office highlighted H.R. 3780, the Border Operations Service Medal Act, which GovTrack records as introduced on June 5, 2025 and which the office announced on June 9, 2025 as a bipartisan bill with original cosponsors it listed as veterans serving in Congress, to create a medal for troops deployed to the southern border. [39][12]
Financial Services, the Budget, and Helene
Moore sits on the Committee on Financial Services, where Chairman French Hill named him Vice Chair of the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations on January 14, 2025 and assigned him to the Financial Institutions and the Digital Assets, Financial Technology, and Artificial Intelligence subcommittees, and on the Committee on the Budget. [16][1][11]
His office’s releases record federal money for Hurricane Helene recovery: $7,798,480 from the Economic Development Administration for an electric substation in Forest City, announced September 3, 2026, and $17,870,774.13 from FEMA for the acquisition and demolition of 42 Helene-damaged properties in Rutherford and Mecklenburg counties, to be returned to green space, announced August 28, 2026. Announcing an agency award is not the same as securing it, and the releases do not claim otherwise. [40][41]
The defining votes of a first term
Moore voted for Mike Johnson in the election of the Speaker on January 3, 2025, which Johnson won with 218 votes to 215 for Hakeem Jeffries. He voted Yea on the Laken Riley Act as a House bill on January 7, 2025 (264–159) and as a Senate bill on January 22, 2025 (263–156), on the SAVE Act on April 10, 2025 (220–208), on H.R. 1 at passage on May 22, 2025 (215–214) and Aye on the final version on July 3, 2025 (218–214), on the Rescissions Act on June 12, 2025 (214–212), and on the Secure America Act on June 9, 2026 (214–212). [23][81][24][25][26][28][27][35]
On spending he voted Yea on the continuing resolution of September 19, 2025 (217–212), on the November 12, 2025 measure that ended the funding lapse (222–209), on the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026 on January 22, 2026 (341–88), on the House continuing resolution for fiscal year 2027 on July 21, 2026 (220–205), and on September 1, 2026 on the Senate-amended bill his office describes as the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2027, which carried 370–48. He voted Yea on the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2027 on July 22, 2026 (216–212), Aye on the Epstein Files Transparency Act on November 18, 2025 (427–1), Nay on the Ukraine Support Act on June 4, 2026 (passed 226–195), and Nay on each of the six war-powers resolutions of 2026 directing the removal of U.S. forces from hostilities with Iran, three of which failed and three of which were agreed to, on March 5, April 16, May 14, June 3, July 23 and September 15. [29][30][32][87][37][38][88][31][34][82][83][84][33][85][86]
Attendance and ideology, measured
Moore missed 2 of 676 roll-call votes from January 2025 to September 2026, 0.3 percent, against a 2.1 percent median for sitting representatives. Voteview’s DW-NOMINATE score places him at 0.588 on the conservative–liberal dimension, 87th most conservative of the 227 House Republicans with scores in the 119th Congress by this profile’s count. [11][17]
What the ratings measure
Heritage Action scores him 93 percent for the 119th Congress and 93 percent lifetime. The Club for Growth scorecard gives him 90 for 2025, a lifetime score of 90 and a rank of 86, and lists him as a Defender of Economic Freedom for 2025. The League of Conservation Voters scores him 0 percent for 2025 and lifetime; the NRA Political Victory Fund grades him A and his opponent F; SBA Pro-Life America grades him A+. Ratings are the judgments of advocacy organizations about selected votes, not government records. [18][19][20][21][22]
Family & community
His official biography describes him as a lifelong resident of Kings Mountain and says he lives there and is the father of two sons, McRae and Wilson. The campaign biography adds nothing further about family, and this profile makes no claim beyond what those pages state. [1][3]
In Congress GovTrack lists him as a member of the Main Street Caucus, with the caution that its caucus data may be incomplete. His campaign’s home page lists endorsements from the sheriffs of Gaston, Cleveland and Rutherford counties, five district attorneys, the North Carolina Troopers Association and the Professional Fire Fighters & Paramedics of North Carolina; the district attorneys’, troopers’ and firefighters’ endorsements were also announced in campaign releases. [11][3][4]
Neither his official biography nor his campaign biography states a religious affiliation, and this profile makes no claim about one. The sources reviewed document residence, family and civic endorsements as the candidate states them; they do not supply a verified record of charitable board service, and none is asserted.
Mission & priorities
“We need his leadership in Congress to make government accountable again and to give North Carolina a common-sense voice that fights for real results.” {3}
The following summarizes the agenda on Moore’s campaign website and in his office’s releases, read against the votes and bills that bear on each item. These are stated positions, not completed accomplishments. [3][38]
01Fiscal responsibility and the budget
The campaign says he stands for “fiscal responsibility, smarter regulation, and stronger support for hardworking families and local economies” and credits the Speaker years with a budget that balanced every year. The federal record shows Yea votes on H.R. 1 in May and July 2025, on the Rescissions Act, on each continuing resolution and on the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026; whether each year’s state budget balanced is a campaign claim this review did not measure against the state’s revenue records. [3][26][28][27][29][32]
02Keeping the government open
After the September 1, 2026 vote he said, “I'm proud to support this clean, straightforward continuing resolution that protects Americans from the costs of a shutdown and ensures election-year politics don't jeopardize the funding process,” and his office said the measure runs through December 11, 2026. He voted for the September 2025 resolution, for the November 12, 2025 measure that ended that autumn’s funding lapse and for the House continuing resolution for fiscal year 2027 on July 21, 2026. [38][37][29][30][87]
03Election integrity
The campaign says the state “enforced voter ID protections” under his leadership. The record shows his Aye on the December 19, 2018 override that enacted the voter-identification law and his Yea on April 10, 2025 on the SAVE Act, a bill to require proof of United States citizenship to register to vote in federal elections. [3][48][25][79]
04Immigration and the border
The campaign says the state “outlawed sanctuary cities” under his leadership; the record shows Aye votes on the 2015 law that prohibited sanctuary city ordinances and on the 2024 override of the law requiring compliance with immigration detainers, and in Congress Yea on the Laken Riley Act and Aye on the Secure America Act. Announcing the Border Operations Service Medal Act, he said, “A country without secure borders is a country in name only,” and of the troops, “They don’t ask for recognition, but they’ve more than earned it.” [3][50][74][52][78][24][35][39]
05Law enforcement
The campaign leads with endorsements from three sheriffs, five district attorneys and the state troopers’ association. His H.R. 2240, requiring the Attorney General to report on violent attacks against officers, passed the House on May 15, 2025 with cosponsors from both parties; it has not passed the Senate. [3][13]
06Hurricane Helene recovery
FOX Carolina reported on January 28, 2025 that Moore had been named on January 24 to the council created by the President’s executive order to assess FEMA, quoting him: “This Council’s mission is clear: we must ensure that FEMA is prepared to respond swiftly and impartially to any disaster, prioritize American families, and focus on restoring the agency’s core mission.” The Department of Homeland Security’s April 28, 2025 list of the council’s co-chairs and appointed members does not include him, and no later appointment document was found for this review. His office has since announced Economic Development Administration and FEMA awards for Forest City, Rutherford County and Mecklenburg County. [63][64][40][41]
07Financial accountability
The campaign says he serves on Financial Services and the Budget “standing up for fiscal responsibility, smarter regulation”; as vice chair of the Oversight and Investigations subcommittee he sponsored the TRUST Act, which would let federal banking agencies examine qualifying insured depository institutions with under $6 billion in total assets not less than once in each 18-month period, and which passed the House on May 12, 2026. On July 22, 2026 he voted Yea on the Stop Insider Trading Act, which would place restrictions on stock ownership by members of Congress and their spouses and dependents; it passed 232–198. [3][16][15][36][80]
How to assess a proposal. A campaign plan states an intention. Enactment, implementation costs, replacement revenue, and measured results are separate questions. These priorities should be read alongside the legislative and voting history above.
The fuller record
A useful profile includes the limits of a claim, the findings of investigations, and the candidate’s answers to material criticism. The items below are drawn from primary documents and independent reporting, with Moore’s response where one is on record.
The Siler City plant and two ethics complaints
Through a company called Southeast Land Holdings, Moore and partners bought a closed poultry plant in Siler City out of bankruptcy for $85,000 in 2013 and sold it to Mountaire Farms for $550,000 in 2016; in between, the state Department of Environmental Quality granted an extension on the removal of buried fuel tanks, and a state trust fund reimbursed $22,000 of the removal cost. The Campaign for Accountability, a Washington watchdog group, filed an ethics complaint on March 9, 2018; a two-member panel of the Bipartisan State Board of Elections and Ethics Enforcement dismissed it in a notice filed December 28, 2018, finding, in the Carolina Journal’s account of the notice, that “the inquiry panel concluded Moore’s legislative position played no role in Southeast getting extensions for cleanup due.” The same account says commission staff attributed much of the confusion in the case to Moore’s failure to file timely notifications that violations had already been corrected. In January 2019 The News & Observer and WRAL reported that a senior aide to the Speaker, former DEQ official Mitch Gillespie, had contacted department staff about the tanks in 2016; a DEQ trust-fund manager said no pressure was applied, the group filed a second complaint on January 14, 2019, and Moore said, “I didn't know anything about it until I read the article.” The disposition of the second complaint was not among the documents this review could retrieve. [71][72]
The September 11, 2019 override
At 8:37 a.m. on September 11, 2019, with most Democrats absent, the House overrode the Governor’s veto of the 2019 budget 55–15, 44 members not voting. Democrats said the Rules chairman had told their leader there would be no recorded votes that morning; the chairman said he had not, and Moore said, “If they didn't want it to pass, all they had to do was show up for work,” adding, “The bill was properly noticed. Procedures were properly followed.” Governor Roy Cooper said Republicans had used “their most deceptive stunt yet.” A motion to recall the bill failed 54–61. The Senate never voted on the override, and the bill never became law. [54][73][53]
The 2023 alienation-of-affection lawsuit
On June 18, 2023 Scott Lassiter, a Wake County assistant principal and former Apex council member, sued Moore in Wake County Superior Court under North Carolina’s alienation-of-affection law, alleging a relationship with his wife and, without offering proof, other misconduct. Moore called the suit baseless and said, “We will vigorously defend this action and pursue all available legal remedies,” and told reporters he had been divorced for years and that the woman had “always made it very clear to me that she was separated”; she called the suit outrageous and defamatory and said the couple had been separated for years. On July 3, 2023 the plaintiff’s lawyer said, “This matter has been resolved,” and on July 5 filed a notice of voluntary dismissal without prejudice, which a lawyer not involved in the case told WRAL left the plaintiff free to refile within a year; the terms of the resolution were not made public, and no court ruled on the allegations. The Wake County District Attorney told WRAL that her office was not pursuing an investigation because the complaint contained no allegations that would give rise to a criminal investigation or prosecution. [69][70]
Stock trades and the STOCK Act deadline
Moore’s periodic transaction reports show six purchases of American Airlines stock between April 1 and April 22, 2025, each in the $15,001–$50,000 range, Ford purchases from April 7 to April 10 and a Ford sale of $100,001–$250,000 on April 15, an American Airlines sale of $250,001–$500,000 on May 2 and a Harley-Davidson sale of $50,001–$100,000 on May 14; the reports covering the April trades were signed on June 13, 2025, after the 45-day deadline the STOCK Act sets for disclosure, as Fortune reported on June 16, 2025. Moore’s written response was that “These trades were disclosed within the 30-day grace period for technical delays recognized by the House Ethics Committee,” and that “They were submitted in good faith and in accordance with the STOCK Act—no late fee was assessed, nor was one required.” Common Cause’s Aaron Scherb said “the timing of Congressman Moore’s stock trades certainly looks and smells bad”; Fortune noted that first-time late filers face a $200 fine that the Ethics Committee generally waives for trades less than a month past the deadline, and recalled a 2024 report by The News & Observer that a personal financial disclosure Moore filed had not given full information about his legal clients or the required reasons for withholding it. A later report, signed August 5, 2025, lists purchases in July of Centene, UnitedHealth, Intel and other stocks. Members may lawfully trade stock, and no finding of any violation appears in the records reviewed; on July 22, 2026 Moore voted Yea on the Stop Insider Trading Act, which would place restrictions on stock ownership by members of Congress and their spouses and dependents. [66][67][65][68][36][80]
The maps, the Court and the district he now holds
Moore v. Harper ended in a 6–3 loss for the legislative position Moore carried to the Supreme Court, but by the time it was decided the North Carolina Supreme Court had overruled its own 2022 holding that partisan-gerrymandering claims are justiciable under the state constitution, and weeks before his November 2023 announcement the General Assembly enacted a new congressional map. The Associated Press described the resulting 14th District as Republican-leaning, touching six counties from parts of Charlotte west to the foothills and including his hometown of Kings Mountain, with the Democratic incumbent, Jeff Jackson, drawn into a different district. Pat Harrigan, who had lost the 2022 general election to Jackson and was then running in the 14th, said Moore “carries a legacy of corruption”; Harrigan did not appear on the 14th District primary ballot that Moore won with 74.99 percent and was elected to Congress that November among the state’s five new Republican members. The opinion, the map and the canvass are the record. [59][60][9][62]
The 2026 race
Moore won the March 3, 2026 primary with 83.02 percent and faces LaKesha Womack, who won the Democratic primary with 52.24 percent and campaigns on affordable health care, economic mobility and the promise “Listening to you. Learning from you. Leading for you in Congress.” Through June 30, 2026 Friends of Tim Moore reported $1,538,952.20 in receipts, $880,526.27 in disbursements and $1,581,992.49 in cash on hand, with $435,700.00 of its contributions from other committees and no debts. The campaign’s Trump endorsement dates from February 23, 2024, before his first election; whether it has been renewed for 2026 was not established by the sources reviewed. [7][6][10][5]

[7][6]
What are Tim Moore's stated priorities?
The following summarizes the agenda on Moore’s campaign website and in his office’s releases, read against the votes and bills that bear on each item. These are stated positions, not completed accomplishments. [3][38] The campaign lists: Fiscal responsibility and the budget; Keeping the government open; Election integrity; Immigration and the border; Law enforcement; Hurricane Helene recovery; Financial accountability.
What does the public record show?
Bill pages, session laws and roll-call transcripts of the General Assembly, the Clerk’s roll calls, a Supreme Court opinion and the member’s own releases establish the following work. Outcomes are described at the level those records support, with shared credit where the measure was another legislator’s bill. The Biographical Directory records Moore as Speaker from 2015 to 2024; the Associated Press counted a record five two-year terms in the chair, and the 2023 House directory lists him as Speaker for District 111 in his eleventh term. A Speaker’s name appears on few bills; his record is the record of what his chamber passed, and the roll-call transcripts below show his own vote, recorded as “Moore (Speaker)” or “T. Moore (Speaker)”, on each measure. [2][60][42][56][44]
How was this profile researched?
Reviewed September 17, 2026. This is a documented overview of publicly available biography, major actions and stated priorities, not an exhaustive vote-by-vote record; 23 House roll calls of the 119th Congress and eight North Carolina House roll-call transcripts were read for it and the defining ones are cited. Numerical claims retain their original meaning and attribution; a court’s rulings and an ethics panel’s findings are labeled as such; historical sources do not imply current positions. Bar records, degree years beyond those in the Biographical Directory, the annual financial disclosure, the Speaker-era campaign-finance reports and the state revenue figures behind the campaign’s tax and budget claims were not part of this review. The General Assembly’s member-biography page returned a server error, and Ballotpedia and the Charlotte Observer declined automated retrieval, so the House Historian’s directory, the Assembly’s own directory, bill records and session laws, and WRAL, WUNC and Fortune reporting are cited in their place. Filings and campaign pages may change after this review.
Sources & methodology
Government records anchor the profile: the General Assembly’s bill pages, session laws and roll-call transcripts, the Clerk’s roll calls and financial-disclosure filings, the State Board of Elections’ results, a Supreme Court opinion and the member’s official pages; independent analyses and advocacy ratings are labelled as such; reporting supplies responses and scrutiny; campaign materials are used for the candidate’s own priorities and claims.

Bar records, degree years beyond those in the Biographical Directory, the annual financial disclosure, the Speaker-era campaign-finance reports and the state revenue figures behind the campaign’s tax and budget claims were not part of this review. The General Assembly’s member-biography page returned a server error, and Ballotpedia and the Charlotte Observer declined automated retrieval, so the House Historian’s directory, the Assembly’s own directory, bill records and session laws, and WRAL, WUNC and Fortune reporting are cited in their place. Filings and campaign pages may change after this review.
