"I am thrilled for the opportunity to once again serve the people of Iredell County in the N.C. House,” Mills said in a news release. “In the past several years, I’ve been blessed to spend time with my family, watching my children grow. Now that they’re a bit older, I would be honored to work with our district’s citizens to continue the great work that Rep. John Fraley has accomplished and continue creating a strong, prosperous state that our children will one day be proud to inherit."
