As the daughter of an Army veteran, it is the privilege of my lifetime to represent our servicemembers, veterans, and military families as a member of the House Armed Services Committee and uplift their voices throughout my work on Capitol Hill.
Today is the Army’s 251st birthday – a time to honor and reflect on the bravery, sacrifices, and shared history of our men and women in uniform.
Did you know that @jhuapl.bsky.social’s own Andre Douglas has been selected to be part of the Artemis III mission for his very first spaceflight? Best of luck to the Artemis III crew – we are #MarylandProud!

The best days on the job are those where we can help our neighbors in need. One of those neighbors, Steve from Severn, was facing skyrocketing Medicare premiums. After reaching out to our office, his premiums were restored to their previous rate within days!
Especially as President Trump’s reckless war in Iran drives up costs, our neighbors deserve policies that will help them not just get by but get ahead.
I sat down with League of Conservation Voters to discuss how we can work together to lower energy costs by advancing clean energy projects at the scale and speed our communities need.
Every day I hear from neighbors who are struggling with rising costs, especially when it comes to energy bills. Today, Marylanders face the highest household utility costs in the entire nation.
I’ve joined @repjamesclyburn.bsky.social and over 115 of my Democratic colleagues across the House and Senate to condemn the establishment of this caucus and its promotion of blatantly discriminatory legislation because all our neighbors deserve to practice their faith without fear.
The proposed ‘Sharia-Free America Caucus’ and other Islamophobic legislation are not only beneath this institution, but outright unconstitutional.
Our Founders enshrined the right to freely practice one’s faith in the First Amendment of the Constitution because so many – including my family – came to our country in search of religious freedom.
Last week, House Democrats forced a vote to send crucial military aid to Ukraine and place sanctions on Russia – and it passed! In today’s edition of Sarah Explains It All, I’ll be breaking down how we did it.
As the daughter and granddaughter of Army, Navy, and Air Force veterans, I know firsthand how crucial supporting military families is to enrollment, retention, and readiness because delivering for these families means delivering for our servicemembers. Stay tuned for our progress!
This week, I sat down with members from the Maryland chapter of Blue Star Families to strategize how we can expand access to child care and employment opportunities both on and off base for military families and spouses.
For over 15 years, Blue Star Families has served one of the largest non-profits helping our veterans and military families build community and get the support they need.
That’s why I voted YES on @norcross.house.gov and Rep. Stauber’s bipartisan Faster Labor Contracts Act so our workers can more easily fight for the wages and benefits they deserve. Good news: with 20 Republicans joining Democrats, the bill passed the House!
Weekends, sick leave, child labor law – these are just a few rights we have thanks to unions. Yet, on average, it takes over 465 days for a new union to secure its first collective bargaining agreement. Our workers should be able to negotiate from day one rather than being held up by employers.
