Hi there, it’s Deborah Ross.

I know we’re all still reeling from the results of the presidential election. The road ahead will be difficult, but let me be clear: The fight to protect our democracy has never been more important.

We must stay focused on defending our fundamental rights and freedoms. With the possibility of total Republican control at hand, I’m determined to ensure that no North Carolinian is left behind by MAGA chaos.

That’s why I voted to protect Social Security this week. Republicans have made it clear that slashing Social Security is one of their top priorities for Donald Trump’s term, and it’s going to take all of us fighting back to protect our seniors — so I need your help right now.

Will you stand with me in demanding Republicans protect Social Security? We need 5,000 signatures before midnight:

Social Security is a lifeline for our seniors, and I refuse to stand by while Republicans gut it completely the way they’ve promised to.

Now more than ever, Democrats must stand united against extremism. I’m counting on you to stay in this fight with me — no matter what.

So I need to ask one more time: Will you stand in solidarity with me as I work with House Democrats to protect Social Security? I need your signature by midnight tonight:

Thank you. We can do this.

Deborah Ross
