We should be able to trust the Secretary of Health and Human Services. Instead, RFK Jr. continues a pattern of denial and dishonesty.
When the truth is on tape, denial doesn’t hold up.
I was the first Senator to call for RFK Jr.'s removal last year, and I stand by that call today.

I'll be talking with @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social on The Last Word tonight.
Tune in around 10:45 PM ET on @msnownews.bsky.social.
When confronted with his own words, RFK Jr. denied, deflected, then apologized “IF” he said every Black kid should be re-parented.
That’s not leadership.
That's not what HHS or our country deserves.
RFK Jr. has taken HHS in a dangerous direction. Going to question him in the HELP committee hearing to demand answers and accountability.
American medical research is slowing at the exact moment we need it to grow. We have the best researchers and scientists in the world and this Administration is pushing them out the door.
RFK Jr. is actively undermining the science that keeps us competitive.
Happy Earth Day!
We all share a responsibility to protect our environment by reducing pollution, lowering emissions, and preserving the Chesapeake Bay. I’ll keep fighting to protect our planet and our communities through my work on @epw.senate.gov
Vaccines save lives. Flu outbreaks threaten military readiness. But this Administration clearly doesn’t care.
This Administration's junk science is jeopardizing the health of our troops and our national security. Shameful.
Breaking news: The military will no longer require U.S. troops to receive the annual flu vaccine, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said, rolling back what he described as “overreaching mandates that only weaken our war-fighting capabilities.” https://wapo.st/4eAG2sx
This article from the Banner offers a wonderful representation of the life James Alsobrooks lived.
The Senator and her family are deeply grateful for the outpouring of prayers, love, and support during this difficult time.
Keith Sonderling is now Acting Secretary of Labor. During a hearing last year, he was unable to answer my basic question on collective bargaining.
This Administration keeps putting unqualified leadership in charge of workers’ rights. Our men and women in labor deserve better.
I joined the Columbia (MD) Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta for their Inaugural Women’s Leadership Luncheon.
Leadership isn’t about titles, it’s about vision and impact. When women lead, we lift communities, drive change, and create opportunities for others to rise with us.
Always a great time meeting with students from across Maryland.
I had a meaningful conversation with students from Towson University and encouraged them to give back to their communities and get involved in civil service. Their voices and talents are needed now more than ever.
The tariff refund portal goes live today. Maryland businesses should review eligibility and apply as soon as possible.
My team will be watching closely to ensure the process works as intended, and every Maryland business gets the money back they are owed.
We are not playing politics with children’s health. Maryland is standing up for science.
Too often, Black women are overlooked by our health care system. As Black Maternal Health Week comes to a close, I remain committed to pushing for real change through legislation like the U-FIGHT Act and the Women’s Heart Health Expansion Act.
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
TrumpRx is a scam that could actually cause you to pay MORE for your prescription drugs.
Slashing the CFPB workforce in half will weaken its ability to protect consumers — including getting money back to Americans who have been cheated by big banks and giant corporations.
I led Banking Democrats in calling on Russell Vought to explain the reasoning behind these cuts.
My statement on tonight's votes:
Grateful to the Maryland African Chamber of Commerce and Vincent Iweanoge for the invitation to celebrate African diaspora women who power our communities. When we rise together, we all rise.
I voted yes AGAIN to end this unauthorized war of choice.
It’s Tax Day. Don’t forget to file, and also don’t forget that this Administration got rid of the free IRS Direct File program, gave tax breaks to billionaires, reduced the staff of the IRS by one-fourth, and cut the budget for investigating sophisticated tax schemes.
