A Majority of Americans Support Roe v. Wade
This is the reality: a majority of Americans support Roe v. Wade, yet the Senate continues to obstruct vital legislation that would protect women’s reproductive freedom. Honored to join North Carolina Democratic Party Chair Richardson and faith leaders today to discuss abortion access in NC.

Reproductive Freedom
Abortion access is on the ballot this November — in North Carolina and in every single state. Get out and vote. We cannot leave reproductive freedom in the hands of a conservative majority bent on restricting our rights. https://www.facebook.com/RossForNorthCarolina/videos/697557674886551
Women’s Fundamental Right to Access Abortion Care
This decision will have devastating ramifications, and we must fight it with everything we’ve got — in Congress, in the states, and on the ground. This is an appalling attack on women’s fundamental right to access abortion care that violates 50 years of legal precedent. https://www.politico.com/news/2022/05/02/supreme-court-abortion-draft-opinion-00029473

Standing Up for Ukraine
