This #BlackHistoryMonth, we celebrate and honor the Black Americans whose achievements shaped North Carolina and our nation. Black history is American history. Check out some ways to celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth throughout North Carolina.
Earlier this week, NCDHHS launched Find My Vaccine Group, an online tool that helps North Carolinians figure out when they will be eligible to receive their COVID vaccine. If you’re eligible to receive a vaccine, I encourage you to get one as soon as possible to protect your health and to protect others. https://findmygroup.nc.gov
I am a longtime proud member of Democratic Women of Wake County. It is always a pleasure to join them in fellowship. I applaud their service to the community and the active role they take in supporting women who lead the fight in achieving equality for all.
In case you missed Governor Roy Cooper‘s press conference yesterday, the Governor extended Phase 3 of the state’s three-phased reopening plan, with a modified stay-at-home order. That order includes a curfew that requires that people stay home from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Phase 3 also limits social gatherings indoors to 10 people and outdoor gatherings to 25 people. Combating this virus will take all of us, working together to limit the spread. And don’t forget the 3 W’s—wear a mask, wait six feet apart, and wash your hands. https://www.newsobserver.com/ne…/local/article248796485.html
With all of the news in the past week, I want to make sure you’re aware I’ve been appointed to the Science, Space, and Technology Committee in the House. I’m looking forward to advancing the work from Wake County and the Research Triangle Park in the committee. And don’t forget to follow my official media – Congresswoman Deborah Ross – for updates on committee work.
I look forward to working with Mayor Day to advance the priorities of Knightdale. https://www.newsobserver.com/news/local/counties/wake-county/article248673270.html
I was particularly moved by Amanda Gorman’s beautiful poem. Her voice is an inspiration to all young Americans and I look forward to seeing her success.
As a community, let’s honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Tune in at 3:30 PM for a virtual live event from Christ the King Lutheran Church to remember his legacy of justice and equality. www.ctkcary.com/dreamfest
Dr. King dedicated his life to making the world and our country a more just place. He inspired a nation to treat others how we would want to be treated ourselves. By embodying these qualities, we can help shape a better world for our children and generations to come. #MLKDay
I voted to impeach President Donald Trump for inciting an attack on the U.S. Capitol and endangering the security of the American people. President Trump has violated his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of President of the United States and is no longer fit to remain in office or hold elected office in the future. I do not take this vote lightly, just as I do not take my responsibilities as a member of Congress and as a representative of the people of North Carolina’s 2nd District lightly. It was a moral imperative that we vote to impeach President
