Congresswoman Deborah Ross is a civil rights advocate, a clean energy champion, a lawyer, and a proud citizen of Wake County. Sworn into the House of Representatives on January 3, 2021, she represents North Carolina’s 2nd Congressional District.
Deborah grew up in a small town, and her parents instilled in her the belief that with opportunity comes responsibility and that through public service she could help others and make a difference.
Nothing is more important to me than keeping all families safe and secure. Those who enter our country must be treated with humanity.
North Carolina’s 2nd Congressional District is home to a large immigrant population. These families and workers contribute to our culture, our economy, and our institutions of higher education. I am committed to passing comprehensive immigration reform to keep families together, provide a fair pathway to citizenship, and meet our nation’s economic needs.
