RALEIGH, N.C. -

Former President Bill Clinton is holding a fundraiser for North Carolina Rep. Heath Shuler.
     
Clinton will speak at North Carolina State University on the morning of Jan. 26, then attend a lunch fundraiser for Shuler in Raleigh. The second-term lawmaker represents a district that covers North Carolina's mountains.
     
This isn't the first time Clinton has helped Shuler. The former president reached out to the former NFL quarterback when Democrats recruited him to run for Congress in the 2006 election.
     
Clinton also attended Shuler's church the weekend before North Carolina's primary this year. Shuler endorsed Clinton's wife, former New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, in her run for president because she won the primary in his district.
