It was an honor to join @NCLifeSci to discuss the future of life sciences in the Triangle. I’m honored to represent so many businesses and organizations that are innovating across the life sciences sector. Investing in biosciences is an investment in North Carolina’s people and our future.

I'm proud to have earned an A from Defend the Vote for my record of protecting voting rights, fighting corruption, + defending election integrity. Voting is our most fundamental right, and the Trump Administration is still trying to disenfranchise voters. I will fight to ensure every vote counts.

Starting Jan 1, Trump's new work requirements for Medicaid go into effect, jeopardizing coverage for thousands of North Carolinians + raising healthcare premiums across the board. I held a roundtable with policymakers + providers to discuss what's at risk and what those with Medicaid should know.

In 2024, Republicans spent months trying to overturn the fair election of NC Justice Allison Riggs. Justice Riggs joined our shadow hearing to speak about their attempts at election interference.

Happy Bike, Walk, and Roll to School Day! It was great to join students and families this morning to support safe, active, and fun ways to get to school.

Three years ago, Hamas committed the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust, killing nearly 1,200 Israelis and taking 251 more hostage—including several Americans. 1/3

North Carolina is no stranger to attacks on election integrity, and the state legislature is still trying to rig the rules. We will remain diligent and ensure that North Carolinians are guaranteed fair and equal access to the ballot box.

Survivors deserve better than political games. While the Trump Administration has abandoned survivors of sexual assault with its cuts to Title IX, in Congress, I’m working with my female colleagues to address gender-based violence and deliver justice to survivors. thehill.com/homenews/612...

Cornell allegations fuel bipartisan push for stronger sexual assault protections

Lawmakers across the aisle are pushing for stronger protections for sexual violence survivors after a former Cornell University student’s fraternity house gang rape allegations drew national …

The Supreme Court's new term begins today, and the cases before the court could fundamentally change the law on immigration, guns, religion and more. I will be monitoring these decisions closely and will share how they may impact you and your freedoms. Read more about what’s on the docket:

On the Docket

We look at the cases before the Supreme Court this term.

Trump knows he can’t win a fair fight. That’s why he’s trying to insert as much uncertainty as possible into our elections before November. We will not let him get away with it.

For Hunger Action Day, I visited the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina, which has provided hunger relief across our community for 45 years. Amid a cost-of-living crisis and cuts to SNAP benefits, it's essential that North Carolina families have access to immediate food assistance.

Today, @morelle.house.gov, @foushee.house.gov, and I hosted a shadow hearing on election security, where we spoke with voting rights experts about recent efforts to interfere with elections in NC and across the country.

Deborah K. Ross@ross.house.govSep 30(source)

At 10 AM, I am hosting a shadow hearing in Raleigh examining election security w/ @RepJoeMorelle + @ValerieFoushee, featuring NC Justice Allison Riggs. We’ll hear from experts about election interference and recent efforts to restrict voting access. And, we will share information on secure voting.

Deborah K. Ross@ross.house.govSep 28(source)

We saw the tragic effects of misinformation during Hurricane Helene—people across Western NC died because of it. I met with experts working to ensure North Carolinians get the resources and information they need. We must stay vigilant and prepare for the next storm.

Deborah K. Ross@ross.house.govSep 24(source)

A non-partisan report found that the Trump admin delayed disaster-proofing efforts that could help prevent the worst effects of disasters like Helene—with no real justification. This is a slap in the face to communities in North Carolina and all over the country.

Deborah K. Ross@ross.house.govSep 23(source)

As Trump threatened annihilation of our adversaries at the U.N., I was at New York Climate Week focused on real solutions to create a healthy economy and a healthy environment. The Thriving Economy Project is how we get there.

This is not about fraud—Trump himself granted clemency to healthcare executives convicted of defrauding our system out of millions of dollars. It’s about taking coverage away from Americans who need it.

Trump officials cut 760,000 enrollees from ACA, claiming fraud

Vice President JD Vance’s anti-fraud task force concluded that the people were wrongly signed up for the government health care program.

I'm wishing all who are observing Yom Kippur G’mar Chatimah Tovah for an easy fast and a day of meaningful reflection. May you and your family be sealed in the book of life.

Attorney General Todd Blanche now has the power to decide where federal prisoners serve their sentences, allowing him to reward Trump’s allies and punish his enemies. I spoke to The Marshall Project about the policy change and the corruption that comes with it.
