North Carolina Republicans worked in secret, behind closed doors to dismantle the progress we’ve made toward a Congressional delegation that reflects the rich ideological and racial diversity of our great state. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/10/25/north-carolina-redistricting-map-passed-republicans/
North Carolina Republicans have just passed into law new gerrymandered congressional and state legislative maps drawn in secret and passed within a week. This is an egregious abuse of power and a threat to our democracy.
Republicans have chosen extremism over bipartisanship with the election of Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House. The GOP agenda of election denialism, the criminalization of abortion, the stripping of rights from the LGBTQ+ community, and cuts to Social Security does not reflect our values.
It was great to see Christina Koch return to NC State during Red and White Week! I’m so proud that Koch will be part of the Artemis II moon mission next year, becoming the first woman to fly to the moon. https://www.newsobserver.com/news/local/education/article280676935.html
We have a choice in 2024: extremism or results. While the task ahead may seem daunting, we are a strong and resilient people, and we can solve big problems. That’s why I’m running for re-election.
These Republican maps are an egregious abuse of power and a threat to the strength and vitality of our democracy. https://www.wral.com/story/republican-leaders-unveil-new-nc-congressional-maps-cementing-their-party-s-political-power/21103436/
For the good of our people and the world, Republicans need to end the chaos and work with Democrats so we can get back to work on the urgent issues we were elected to solve. https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nc/charlotte/capital-tonight/2023/10/17/one-on-one-with-deborah-ross
It’s been two weeks without a Speaker, two weeks of Republican infighting, and two weeks of Congress being paralyzed by far-right extremists. House Republicans have nominated MAGA poster child Jim Jordan, who has done nothing but sow division, fear, and hate. Those are not the qualities fit for the Speaker’s gavel.
On the one-year anniversary of the horrific mass shooting in Raleigh, I’m thinking of the families and loved ones of the five innocent souls we lost. I continue to be inspired by the resilience, love, and care our community showed in the aftermath of this senseless act of violence. Today we honor and remember: Nicole Connors Susan Karnatz Mary Marshall Gabriel Torres James Thompson
It’s been one week since the Speaker of the House was ousted for the first time in American history, and Republicans still don’t have their act together. Democrats are ready to lead, but first, we must win back the House majority.
