Senator Sydney Batch is an attorney, licensed clinical social worker, and legislative leader whose career has been dedicated to improving the lives of children and families. First elected to the North Carolina House of Representatives in 2018 before joining the Senate in 2021, Batch became the first woman and first Black woman elected by her colleagues to serve as Leader of the Senate Democratic Caucus.

Drawing on her experience in family and child welfare law, Batch has built a legislative record centered on strengthening public education, expanding access to affordable health care, protecting reproductive freedom, and creating greater economic opportunity for working families. Her practical understanding of how public policy affects everyday lives has made her a respected voice in the General Assembly.

NCAAT in Action is proud to endorse Sydney Batch because of her steadfast commitment to equity, public service, and ensuring government works for all North Carolinians. Her collaborative leadership and dedication to strengthening families reflect the values that guide NCAAT’s work across our state.

These women are incumbent legislators who will continue serving North Carolina in the General Assembly.
