Raleigh, NC – The North Carolina Association of Educators (NCAE) is proud to announce its endorsement of Representative Deborah Ross for North Carolina’s 2nd Congressional District. The daughter of an early childhood educator, Ross understands that a strong public education opens doors for every child. Throughout her career in public service, she has fought to protect civil rights, expand opportunity, and ensure children from all backgrounds have access to a quality education.
“Representative Deborah Ross has been a strong voice for students, educators, and families in Wake County. She has stood up for public schools and fought to make sure every child, from pre-K through college, has the opportunity to succeed. We’re confident she will keep fighting for the communities she represents.”
