Congresswoman Deborah Ross, representing North Carolina’s 2nd district, recently made a series of statements on social media addressing various political and historical issues. Her tweets reflect her active involvement in legislative matters and advocacy for ethical governance.
On February 7, 2025, Ross raised concerns about Elon Musk's role as a government employee, highlighting potential financial conflicts of interest. She stated, "Elon Musk is now a government employee with clear financial conflicts of interest." Ross noted that she and Representative Raskin led their colleagues in the House Judiciary Committee to urge the Department of Justice to enforce ethics laws regarding Musk's financial dealings.
Later that day, Ross introduced legislation aimed at honoring the Greensboro Four for their significant contributions to the Civil Rights Movement. She tweeted, "At this perilous moment for our country, we must remember the courage of those who stood against oppression." This legislative effort was supported by Representatives Adams, Valerie Foushee, and Don Davis.
In another tweet posted on February 7th, Ross commented on Elon Musk's influence in U.S. politics with a statement that read: "Elon Musk. The Un-Elected President of the United States." This remark suggests her view on Musk's perceived power and influence beyond his official capacity.
