This new legislation would establish a clear line: In the US, we do not exile people for exercising their constitutional rights. We thank @ross.house.gov and @balint.house.gov for introducing this bill and standing firm in safeguarding our right to free speech, dissent, and political expression.

The Trump admin keeps violating the free speech rights of immigrants in this country. This can't go unchecked. @balint.house.gov and I introduced our Land of the Free Act to prevent Trump from deporting individuals whose speech he finds inconvenient. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office just confirmed that Republicans' Big Ugly Law makes life more expensive for families by giving massive tax breaks to billionaires. Republicans are throwing working families under the bus for the wealthy. apnews.com/article/trum...

Trump said he'd have inflation down immediately, but his reckless tariffs are keeping it high. North Carolinians can't afford to live under Trump's economy. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/08...

The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 was once a rarely used provision. But now Marco Rubio uses it daily. It was his basis for going after Mahmoud Khalil, Rümeysa Öztürk, and others to suppress political speech. So @ross.house.gov and I want to repeal it.

Trump Wants To Deport Noncitizens Using A Little-Known Provision. This Bill Seeks To Repeal It.

The bill, first obtained by HuffPost, takes aim at a law allowing visa holders and legal residents to be deported if the secretary of state thinks they're a foreign policy threat.

Energy costs are way too high, and these solar grants helped low-income families afford their energy. We'll keep fighting to protect North Carolinians by pushing Trump to reverse this decision. ncnewsline.com/2025/08/08/n...

North Carolina congressional Democrats ask EPA to restore $156M in solar grants • NC Newsline

Solar for All offered $7 billion in grants across the country to more than 900,000 low-income households for solar projects.

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

We're facing challenging times, but I'm committed to doing everything I can to make progress on the issues that affect North Carolina.

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

In other words: Trump's tariffs do the least harm to corporations and the wealthiest Americans. Everyone else will feel the pain. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/11/b...

Small Businesses Brace for the Punishing Side Effects of Trump’s Tariffs

We'll keep fighting so that North Carolinians can have access to affordable clean energy. insideclimatenews.org/news/0708202...

N.C.’s Democratic Congressional Delegation Condemns EPA Cancellation of Solar for All - Inside Climate News

They joined a chorus of critics across the country, where grantees in almost every state had been awarded funds to provide solar energy for 900,000 households in low-income and disadvantaged communiti...

North Carolinians are still feeling the effects of Chantal. I met with state and local leaders to discuss how federal budget cuts could hurt disaster relief preparedness and how Congress must pass a relief package ASAP.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 7(source)

Senior citizens rely on government programs like Medicare and Social Security to survive. While Republicans under Trump are weakening these programs, I spoke with residents of the Garner Senior Center about how I will keep fighting for them.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 7(source)

North Carolinians know how devastating natural disasters can be. I'm doing everything I can in D.C. and Wake County to provide us with the tools and resources we need to be prepared for the next big storm. www.wunc.org/term/news/20...

NC Congresswoman Ross looks to experts for help on warnings, planning as disasters mount

Rep. Ross held a roundtable weeks after the remnants of Tropical Storm Chantal killed six people in central North Carolina. That storm came amid NC's Helene recovery.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 7(source)

Americans are already suffering under the high cost of groceries, gas, and everyday goods. Trump's tariffs will only make it worse.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 6(source)

RFK is pursuing his anti-vaccine agenda with these politically motivated cuts, which are opposed by scientists and doctors. This decision makes us less safe. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

RFK Jr. cuts $500 million in mRNA vaccine contracts, dealing major blow to promising area of research

The cuts add to mounting evidence that Kennedy is pursuing an aggressive anti-vaccine agenda.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 6(source)

Women veterans are the fastest growing group of veterans, and they often face unique challenges during and after their service. While Republicans cut critical resources, I met with veterans & local leaders to hear about how we can better support them.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 6(source)

In July alone, my office returned over $467,000 to constituents. If you need help with a federal agency, reach out. We're here to serve you.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 5(source)

It was a pleasure to join healthcare leaders in Raleigh to celebrate the opening of Baxter's new Customer Experience Center. The new facility will benefit both patients and providers and help strengthen our care economy.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 5(source)

I joined @foushee.house.gov in urging EPA Administrator Zeldin to reverse the closure of the Office of Research and Development. This office protects our air, water, and health. Cutting it would hurt communities across North Carolina and the country.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 5(source)

Actions speak louder than words. Once again, Donald Trump has broken his promises to women and families while attacking their right to plan their futures.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govAug 5(source)

Donald Trump fired the head of BLS because he didn't like the jobs report. Undermining trusted economic data won't fix his failures, but it will hurt Americans.
