This morning, @foushee.house.gov hee and I announced $2 million for the GoTriangle Triangle Mobility Hub, which will connect transportation across the region. This means easier access to work, less congestion on our roads, and more ways to travel across the area.

After Trump's threats of war crimes against Iranians, Democrats once again tried to rein in this conflict through a War Powers Resolution. Republicans just blocked it. Without congressional action, Trump will continue to conduct a war with no accountability or endgame.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govApr 9(source)

President Trump changes his tune every day about what's going on in Iran or how long it will last. His behavior is increasingly unhinged and we don't know what the mission is. Congress needs to pass a War Powers Resolution and put an end to this conflict.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govApr 8(source)

ICE + CBP already have a massive slush fund. Congress doesn't need to give them more money without holding them accountable. I'll return to DC ASAP to vote for the unanimously passed Senate bill to fund TSA, FEMA, & DHS agencies while Congress negotiates reforms for ICE + CBP.

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

Trump has threatened to wipe out an entire civilization. Even if he doesn't make good on this threat, it is horrifying and beyond irresponsible. Speaker Johnson must immediately call Congress back to D.C. to rein in Trump's erratic behavior and this escalating war of choice.

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

Trump’s increasingly erratic behavior is escalating this conflict, and now he is threatening war crimes. This admin has no way to pay for this war, no clear strategy, and no endgame. Congress must rein in Trump’s actions before this conflict spirals further out of control.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govApr 3(source)

Since Trump took office, electric costs have gone up 21% in NC. And his war in Iran will only push prices higher. Now, the proposal to raise rates an extra 18% will hit families' already-tight budgets across the state. None of this puts North Carolinians first.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govApr 2(source)

A huge victory for Western NC. For over a year, Kristi Noem blocked life-saving assistance to Western NC after Helene. I wrote a bill to scrap this destructive policy, & finally, the Trump admin caved to the pressure of North Carolinians. I look forward to WNC continuing to rebuild!

DHS scraps Noem policy requiring secretary's review of all contracts above $100,000

The Noem policy meant the secretary was required to personally sign off on thousands of DHS contracts.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govApr 2(source)

Incompetence and contempt for the rule of law only get you so far. I’ll keep fighting to bring justice for Epstein’s survivors now that Pam Bondi is out of our way.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govApr 1(source)

Tonight NC State’s own Christina Koch will be part of NASA’s Artemis II crew to the moon. She will make history as the first woman to travel around the moon and will journey farther into space than any woman. Join us in celebrating this amazing achievement! abc11.com/post/nc-stat...

NC State alum Christina Koch poised to make history with Artemis II mission

Long before she became a record-setting astronaut, Christina Koch stood out on NC State's campus, with a "powerful drive and desire."

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govApr 1(source)

The Senate unanimously passed a bipartisan bill to fund TSA, but House Republicans refused to hold a vote on it. I'm glad TSA agents are finally being paid, but we need a permanent solution. It's time to fund TSA immediately so Congress can negotiate needed reforms to ICE + CBP.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govApr 1(source)

It feels good to say: welcome back to NC State, Coach Gainey! I can’t wait to see all you do for the Pack. www.wral.com/sports/nc-st...

Across the state, energy costs have gone up twice as fast as the cost of living. And as electric companies achieve record profits, they want to raise rates by 18%. I will continue to stand alongside North Carolinians in firm opposition to these price hikes.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govMar 27(source)

It's Friday afternoon. TSA still hasn't been paid, and Democrats are absolutely united in ending this chaos at our airports. This morning, the Senate passed a bill to fund TSA unanimously, but House Republicans are blocking a vote on it. What's going on, explained:

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govMar 26(source)

Today's gas prices thanks to Trump's war in Iran: $3.89 in Rolesville $3.99 in Cary $3.79 in Knightdale $3.65 in Zebulon $3.80 in Raleigh Americans asked for lower costs and an end to wars, yet we've wound up with the complete opposite.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govMar 26(source)

Today is Equal Pay Day, which symbolizes how far into 2026 women must work to earn what men were paid in 2025. And for the 2nd year in a row, the gender pay gap has widened. It's simple. Women deserve equal pay for equal work.

Representative Deborah Ross@ross.house.govMar 26(source)

We need to fix the airports ASAP. That's why I support funding TSA now, so Congress can work through DHS reforms later. But Republicans are unwilling to budge. Security lines are out of control, people are missing their flights, and TSA agents are unfairly going without pay.

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

This month, I hosted my office's annual State of Women. At a time when women are facing unprecedented attacks--from their health care to the ballot box--bringing women together and supporting one another is more important than ever.

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

A friendly reminder that the incidence of proven noncitizen voting is below 0.0001%. The SAVE Act is just an attempt by Republicans to make it harder and more expensive for Americans to vote.

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

Pam Bondi and her Department of Justice are not following the law. There are thousands of files that have not been released. Perpetrator's names were still redacted when I went myself to view the Epstein Files. Bondi needs to comply with the law or go.
