North Carolinians deserve the federal dollars they were promised. Today, I joined Attorney General Jeff Jackson and local leaders to call out Trump and his enablers for their illegal and heartless scheme to withhold funding that millions of Americans rely on.

I was thrilled to celebrate the launch of centralized mail delivery in the Research Triangle Park alongside @ross.house.gov, the Research Triangle Foundation and USPS. RTP is the largest research park in the nation, and mail delivery is essential to ensuring its continued growth for years to come.

The plane and helicopter collision near DCA is a tragedy & now isn’t the time for partisan lies. DEI had nothing to do with it, and President Trump's reckless claims ignore the suffering that many families and individuals are experiencing today. www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/...

Trump sparks outcry with implication that DEI policies are at fault in D.C. midair collision

“We have to have our smartest people” as air traffic controllers, Trump said.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJan 30(source)

My heart breaks for the families who lost loved ones in last night's devastating plane and helicopter collision near DCA. Today, I join every American in mourning the loss of life and praising the work of our first responders who rushed to the scene.

Thank you, Attorney General Jeff Jackson for leading with North Carolina values and defending the Constitution from this blatant overreach by President Trump. ncnewsline.com/briefs/ncs-j...

NC's Jeff Jackson, 17 other attorneys general challenge Trump's citizenship order in federal court • NC Newsline

A coalition of Democratic attorney generals filed a lawsuit on Tuesday seeking to block Trump's bid to end birth right citizenship.

We are finally seeing how Trump plans to cut taxes for his billionaire friends. By getting rid of FEMA and abandoning states when they need disaster recovery assistance.

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

On day one, President Trump pardoned 1,500 of his supporters, several who violently attacked police officers. He still hasn't done anything to meaningfully benefit Americans. Nothing to lower the cost of groceries, energy, or housing.

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

Patients, not politicians, should have the freedom to make health care decisions that are best for them and their families. Today, I voted against legislation that would criminalize reproductive health care providers who give patients vital life saving care.

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

This move was so blatantly unconstitutional it took a judge all of two days to block it. www.cnn.com/2025/01/23/p...

Judge says he will block Trump’s ‘blatantly unconstitutional’ executive order that aims to end birthright citizenship | CNN Politics

A federal judge said Thursday that President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship was “blatantly unconstitutional,” and that he was issuing a temporary restraining order to blo...

Trump's first day in office was spent freeing hundreds of violent felons who attacked police officers, and House Republicans stand by his pardons. This action makes our country less safe, and does nothing to help Americans. Yet Republicans are unwilling to speak out.

House Republicans support freeing violent felons who brutally attacked police officers on January 6. The Republican decision to release these dangerous criminals into our communities makes America less safe.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJan 21(source)

Beyond excited to serve as Policy Task Force Chair alongside @repkamlagerdove.bsky.social for the @demwomencaucus.bsky.social. We are ready to get to work delivering real results for women and girls across #NC02 and the nation.

Offshore wind energy has already proven to be a boon to North Carolina's economy, but Trump's action yesterday could disrupt planned wind farms. This won't lower costs, create jobs, or combat climate change. www.wral.com/story/trump-...

Trump moves to curb wind farms, part of North Carolina's clean energy plan

Trump has not hid his disdain for windmills or wind energy. It was one of a series of executive order and actions taken by Trump on his first day as president.

My statement on the harmful actions President Trump took on his first day in office, including pardons for people who violently attacked the Capitol, orders to halt offshore wind energy permitting, and more 🔽

This #MLKDay, I joined the 45th Annual Triangle MLK Memorial March. Today & everyday, we march for progress - carrying on our work for a world where personal freedoms are protected & justice and equality prevail.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJan 20(source)

Today, I honored the life & legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at the annual Triangle Interfaith Breakfast with Rep. @foushee.house.gov It is always an honor to attend this special event with community members who are continuing his legacy of fighting for justice and equality.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJan 20(source)

On #MLKDay, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's profound legacy and mark on our nation. Especially today on #InaugurationDay, silence is not an option. We must stay resolute in our path towards justice and equality for all Americans.

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

I'm proud to join my NC colleagues in reintroducing bipartisan legislation to extend full federal recognition to the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina. Read my full statement below ⬇️

The three largest PBM's generated $7.3 Billion in markups for specialty drugs. $7.3 Billion. We need PBM reform ASAP. My bipartisan bill would help. ross.house.gov/press-releas...

Everyone deserves a home they can afford, and one way to decrease prices is to increase housing supply. I'm grateful to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta for providing $55 million in grants for three affordable housing projects in #NC02. www.globenewswire.com/news-release...

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govJan 16(source)

Thank you @potusbiden.bsky.social for serving our country these last four years. We spent four years lowering healthcare costs, investing in infrastructure, & more - bipartisan progress that will benefit generations of Americans. We're better off for your contributions to this country.
