I visited the ICE processing facility in Cary with Rep. Foushee. This is where people are held before moving to a larger detention center.
We're taking oversight into our own hands, which is why we're going to Georgia to view conditions and hear from detainees directly. More to come.

I had an amazing time at TST, the premier 7v7 soccer festival taking place here in Cary.
I'm so proud of what the Carolina Courage has helped to build and had the opportunity to meet Chris Paul and Mana Shim, two incredible athletes leading the fight for equality in women's sports!
I brought performing artists together at The Pour House to discuss the struggles independent musicians face earning fair pay from AI + streaming platforms.
My bill, the Protect Working Musicians Act, empowers them to band together to negotiate fair compensation for their work.
Small business owners know the challenges that come with running a business— and that’s before rising costs from utilities, fuel, and tariffs.
I spoke with entrepreneurs at the Wright Center about how they’re handling skyrocketing costs caused by the Trump administration.
Summer break means fun for kids, but it also means thousands of Wake County children lose access to school meals they rely on.
I held a roundtable with public servants, food banks, and nonprofits to discuss Republicans’ recent cuts to food assistance and how to fight hunger.
🚨A judge blocked the release of any dollars from Trump’s $1.7+ billion anti-weaponization slush fund while a lawsuit against it plays out.
Our courts cannot be bulldozed by this administration. This is a win — for now — against blatant corruption.
Let’s keep fighting.
Trump's $1.7 billion plus slush fund is corruption at its most obvious: using your taxpayer dollars to reward the President's allies, including Jan 6th rioters convicted of attacking law enforcement.
I have yet to speak to anyone - Republican or Democrat - in favor of this.
Republicans seem to have just learned what an informant is. And apparently haven't seen the movie BlacKkKlansman.
The SPLC has used informants for years to take down hate groups from the inside. Now, Republicans are acting as if this concept is new to smear their work.
A meaningful Memorial Day spent in Garner, Cary, and Rolesville honoring North Carolina’s fallen soldiers.
Today, we pause to remember the bravery of those who died for our democracy and pledge to carry their memory forward.
"It is, quite simply, a scam."
Echoing @RepRaskin's words here. Americans' hard-earned money shouldn't go to Trump's allies and violent insurrectionists. That's why we've introduced a bill banning any taxpayer dollars from going to January 6 rioters.

My statement on this morning's shooting near the Wake County Courthouse:
Independent musicians are largely powerless to negotiate fair prices for their work from AI and streaming platforms.
My bill, the Protect Working Musicians Act, allows independent artists to band together to negotiate fair compensation for their work.

Trump’s DOJ has accused the Southern Poverty Law Center of funding hate. It's absurd, especially while this admin is set to pay out violent rioters with our tax dollars.
The SPLC fought the KKK and defended our voting rights in NC. These charges are ridiculous and un-American.
You may have heard about Trump's $1.7 billion dollar "slush fund." Here's what that means, and why it's so corrupt:
Trump said he “doesn’t think about Americans’ financial situations" when it comes to the war in Iran.
We didn't need Trump to tell us that he doesn't think about the American people: he launched an illegal war knowing it would drive up prices. It was already crystal clear.
Trump’s DOJ announced a $1.7B slush fund to pay his allies, including Jan 6 rioters. I signed onto an amicus brief to fight this corruption.
This is the one guarantee of this administration: if you suck up to Trump, if you commit crimes in his name, you will be rewarded.

On Tamil Genocide Remembrance Day, I'm joining the Tamil people around the world in mourning the lives tragically taken during Sri Lanka's decades-long Civil War.
Today and every day, we must recognize this tragedy and seek justice for the victims and their families.
"Same fight. New generation."
The voices of black voters are being silenced by Republicans in the South.
Unfortunately, this isn’t new in North Carolina. We cannot give up until we have banned gerrymandering nationwide.

ICE has taken up a tactic of detaining immigrants who report crimes. It's causing violent criminals to go free, and victims are scared to report crimes.
ICE's inhumane tactics are making our country less safe.
Reposted byRepresentative Deborah Ross
Immigrants who are victims of crime are less likely to report it or testify out of fear of being detained.
@ross.house.gov on how the Trump Administration’s reckless immigration policies have made it harder to prosecute criminals:
