Congresswoman Deborah Ross, representing North Carolina's 2nd district in the U.S. Congress, has shared her views on various issues through a series of tweets. These tweets address national security concerns, gender pay disparity, and internship opportunities in her offices.

On March 25, 2025, Congresswoman Ross expressed concern over officials using private cell phones to share classified information. She stated that this practice is "unacceptable" and called for these officials to "appear before Congress and explain this reckless danger to our national security and our men and women in uniform." The original tweet can be found here.

Later that day, at 15:24 UTC, Ross addressed the issue of pay inequality with a focus on gender and racial disparities. She asserted that "equal work deserves equal pay - no exceptions," highlighting the ongoing issue where many women earn less than their male counterparts. She emphasized that the disparity is even more pronounced for women of color. Her call to action on #EqualPayDay can be viewed here.

At 17:47 UTC on the same day, Ross invited individuals interested in working for North Carolina's 2nd district during the summer to apply for internships in her D.C. or Raleigh offices. She reminded potential applicants that the deadline is approaching quickly, with applications due by March 31st. More details about this opportunity are available here.
