Giffords’ Endorsement
Now more than ever, we must address the epidemic of gun violence in our country. I’m honored to be endorsed by Giffords. I will never stop fighting for legislation that will reduce this senseless violence and create a safer future for our children.
Prayer and Action
We cannot follow the nationwide calls to end gun violence with inaction. Tomorrow at noon, join the North Carolina Black Alliance, the General Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, and more for a call to prayer and action in front of Wiley Elementary School.
Happy Pride Month to our LGBTQ+ community in Wake County and beyond!
I hope this month is a time of celebration. I’ll continue fighting in Congress for the rights and protections you deserve.
Memorial Day
This #MemorialDay, we remember all those who have courageously fought for our freedom while serving in the Armed Forces. We owe servicemembers and their families an immeasurable debt of gratitude — today and everyday.
South Park Heritage Walk and Chavis-Dix Strollway
I secured $3 million in funding for the South Park Heritage Walk and Chavis-Dix Strollway in the government funding package. This important project will help preserve pieces of Raleigh’s incredible history that often go untold and unrecognized. https://abc11.com/congresswoman-deborah-ross-raleigh-parks-3-million-in-funding-south-park-heritage-walk/11885756/
Pass Commonsense Gun Safety Legislation
Generations of children have experienced gun violence in their schools, churches, and other public places. Enough is enough. We must prevent tragedies like this and pass commonsense gun safety legislation. https://www.wral.com/cary-based-columbine-survivor-offering-support-to-families-involved-in-texas-elementary-school-shooting/20298704/
AAPI Heritage Month
It was wonderful to join so many friends to celebrate #AAPIHeritageMonth this past weekend. Wake County would not be the thriving hub of innovation and culture that it is without the AAPI community’s incredible contributions. https://abc11.com/asian-american-and-pacific-islander-heritage-month-raleigh-theatre-stop-aapi-hate-deborah-ross/11880057/
DigitalBridge
It was great to be in Northern Wake County today, learning more about DigitalBridge, the free digital learning program in Wake Forest, and stopping by a local business in Rolesville.
