I led a roundtable to discuss how this admin harmed higher education by changing student loan rules. Trump’s policies are hurting the future teachers, healthcare workers, business leaders, & more that Wake County needs. I'll keep fighting to make sure higher ed remains a pathway to opportunity.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 27(source)

I'm fighting in Washington to make life easier for folks in North Carolina. Lately, that looks a lot like fighting against bad policies that do nothing to bring down costs. Hear more:

This morning, I announced $850,000 in safety improvements to Jones Sausage Road alongside Garner Mayor Gupton, members of the Garner Town Council, key staff and the Garner PD. This project will help ensure our infrastructure is safe, efficient, and built for the future.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 26(source)

I love going to the farmers market; I know where my food comes from and I pay fair prices that go straight to NC farmers. But families are struggling to afford groceries, gas, and more because of this admin. With 100 days until Election Day, it's clear we're moving in the wrong direction.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 24(source)

Despite how this admin advertises a new “gold-standard” in science, scientific research is collapsing nationwide. Trump & his political appointees now want to control ALL grant decisions, risking clinical trials, biotech, & more. It's a cheap cover-up of their costly threats to science.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 23(source)

A new Republican bill would make any child who overstays their visa a criminal--even if they're with a parent or don't have the ability to leave on their own. This isn't about safety. This is about hurting immigrant children. @raskin.house.gov and I explain:

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 22(source)

My statement on House Republicans’ Partisan NDAA:

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 22(source)

House Republicans want to pass an immigration bill that would criminalize children—even toddlers— who overstay their visas. We can't trust this admin to treat children humanely or follow the law as is. Why would we trust them with a new law that could damage more kids?

NEW: I launched an investigation w/ Rep. Valerie Foushee + @adams.house.gov into Duke Energy's settlement with the Trump admin to abandon an offshore wind project off the NC coast in exchange for a payout. We will get answers. www.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

I'm devastated to lose another Fort Bragg soldier. My deepest condolences are with the loved ones of Sgt Michael Emmanuel Swinton of Fayetteville as they grieve this unimaginable loss. I'm praying for the safety of all of our servicemembers around the world. My heart goes out to his young children.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 18(source)

Nearly 6 years after we lost civil rights icon John Lewis, President Trump is spreading lies and pushing to take voting access away from millions of Americans. We can't let that happen. We must follow John Lewis' legacy, get into some good trouble, and exercise our right to vote this November.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 17(source)

As this administration attempts to suppress the voices of Black Americans and women across the South, it is more important than ever to honor Lewis' legacy by fighting to protect equal rights under the law.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 17(source)

I was honored to receive the Equal Rights Amendment Champion Certificate. Today is an important day to discuss equal rights - on the 6-year anniversary of civil rights leader John Lewis' death. Lewis fought for equal rights for all Americans, no matter their gender, race, or religion. 1/2

Patricia Rojas is a Documented Dreamer. She was forced to self-deport — despite having lived in the U.S. nearly her entire life. My bill would protect thousands like Patricia whose families came to this country legally. Read more: reason.com/2026/07/10/s...

Todd Blanche faces the Senate today. From Trump's slush fund to the mishandling of the Epstein files and Ghislaine Maxwell's shady prison transfer, the evidence is clear: the Senate must vote NO on confirming him as Attorney General.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 14(source)

Joan Sebastian Guerrero was a 26-year-old father who did the right things to be in this country legally. He wasn't the target of a warrant, yet he was shot and killed by ICE. Trump's ICE is out of control and not making our communities safer.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 13(source)

A federal judge just ruled that Trump’s IRS immunity deal + slush fund amounts to “self-dealing.” This scam is so appalling that the judge is referring Trump’s lawyers for sanctions. Trump wants to reward the architect of it all—Todd Blanche—by making him Attorney General.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJul 11(source)

Despite Trump's attempts to block it, historic, bipartisan legislation to lower housing costs is now law. Trump refused to sign this package because he wants Republicans to pass an extreme voter suppression bill. He failed, and the American people won. www.cnn.com/2026/07/11/e...

Sweeping housing affordability bill becomes law, despite Trump’s delay. Here’s what it actually means for the housing market | CNN Business

The 21st Century Road to Housing Act, a bipartisan bill that aims to tackle housing affordability, officially became law early Saturday, despite a series of attempts by President Donald Trump to stall...

I was proud to join Cary Mayor Weinbrecht and @wakegov Chair Don Mial to announce over $1 million in federal funding for Walnut Creek. Since the 90s, Cary and Raleigh residents have worked to restore Walnut Creek. This funding shows what we can achieve when communities and government work together.
