Congresswoman Deborah Ross, representing North Carolina's 2nd district, has voiced concerns on several actions taken by the Trump Administration through a series of tweets. Her online posts address immigration policy, economic impacts of tariffs, and education program funding. The tweets indicate her critical stance on these issues, underscoring their potentially negative impacts on individuals across the nation.

On April 2, 2025, Ross tweeted, "With no explanation, the Trump admin revoked the visas of 2 NC State students & hundreds of other students around the country. Immigration enforcement actions should be focused on criminals – not young people with visas who are trying to get an education."

In a post on April 3, 2025, Ross highlighted the perceived negative economic impacts of Trump's tariffs, stating, "Trump's tariffs are already tanking the stock market, harming millions of Americans -- especially seniors nearing retirement. But that's just the start. In the long run, costs will go up and every American will feel the squeeze."

In another tweet on April 3, she expressed concern about potential cuts to the Head Start program, saying, "Eliminating Head Start means eliminating an education lifeline for our most vulnerable children and families. The Trump admin's actions are cruel and reckless."
