I turned out for the teachers rally to support Wake County educators. Our teachers are underpaid, overworked, and underappreciated. It's time for North Carolina to invest in our public schools and give our teachers a raise.

I am standing in full solidarity with the thousands of NC teachers marching for fair pay and proper school funding. Wake County faces $16M in cuts this year Today, our educators are putting everything on the line to ensure every student gets the resources they deserve.

After 75 days of chaos, House Republicans finally agreed to do the right thing and end the DHS shutdown. This crisis was entirely avoidable, and Republicans bear full responsibility. Now, Democrats will stay focused on passing urgently needed reforms to ICE and CBP.

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

SCOTUS has given Republicans across the country the green light to dilute the power of voters of color. This follows a long history of voter suppression in our country, especially in the South. Congress must pass a national ban on ALL gerrymandering immediately. ncnewsline.com/2026/04/29/s...

Ghislaine Maxwell's prison sentence is virtually the only justice that's been served for Epstein's survivors, and now she's looking for Trump to give her a pardon. I'm leading an investigation into Maxwell's prison transfer and will make sure she pays the price for what she did.

You paid your taxes last year, but billion dollar corporations such as Palantir, Tesla, United, KFC, Taco Bell paid ZERO in federal income taxes. Our system currently benefits the richest few while the American people struggle to afford skyrocketing costs.

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

Happy Earth Day! Today I'm celebrating the natural beauty of our state from two of my favorite places in NC: sunflowers at Dix Park & sunset at the OBX. Places like this are why we have to keep working to fight climate change, invest in clean energy, and protect our planet for the next generation.

I was proud to announce over $2 million in federal funding for rape kit processing for NC. Sexual assault survivors have endured unimaginable pain and trauma. At the very least, they deserve access to fair and swift justice. www.wcnc.com/article/news...

North Carolina awarded over $2 million in federal funds to prevent rape kit backlogs

Across the state, 20% of women and 3% of men have experienced some form of sexual assault, officials say.

College graduates face a tough job market, high living costs, & often crushing student debt. Balancing it all can hurt their credit history. That’s why I introduced bills to help give borrowers who repair their credit a clean slate.

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

Today is the start of the NC Legislative Session. They are still at a budget impasse. Our state is in a dangerous situation: Medicaid funding runs out next month. It's time for Republicans to stop the infighting and work to save North Carolinians' health care.

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

It was an honor to meet Ukrainian Prime Minister Svyrydenko during her meeting with the Congressional Ukraine Caucus. The US must continue to defend Ukraine's right to sovereignty and work to promote stability in the region. I will always stand for a free Ukraine.

Join me this Monday, April 20, for a Telephone Town Hall! Right now, we are seeing unprecedented economic and global uncertainty amidst Trump's war in Iran. I will be discussing the conflict and answering your questions. You can RSVP at Ross.house.gov/live.

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

Let's be 100% clear: Trump has put us at war with Iran completely by choice. His actions have gotten increasingly erratic and dangerous. Congress will be voting today to prevent Trump from waging this war unchecked, and I will be voting yes.
