Black history is American history – and it’s Annapolis history. I was so grateful to stop by The City Of Annapolis’s Rooted in Revolution Series to recognize the contributions, leadership, resistance, and cultural legacy of Black Annapolitans.

Together, we’re committed to not only responding to immediate instances of aggression, but breaking the cycle of violence once and for all.
I was proud to join @vanhollen.senate.gov and @alsobrooks.senate.gov to present Molly Knipe and the incredible YWCA team with $697,000 in federal funding to support their critical re-housing, abuse intervention, and education programs.
Today, they’re still the County’s only domestic violence safe house & they support more than 10,000 of our neighbors.
For over 100 years, the YWCA of Annapolis and Anne Arundel has been a leader in the fight for dignity and equity for survivors of domestic violence & sexual assault in Anne Arundel County.
Just like before, we will not let a locked door stop us from getting answers for our neighbors. I will keep you updated as we learn more.
I’ve joined my Maryland delegation colleagues in demanding answers from DHS to our straightforward questions regarding the disturbing conditions reported at the ICE Baltimore Field Office.
Team Maryland has repeatedly called for answers from ICE on behalf of our constituents. Last year, we attempted to exercise our Constitutional duty to oversight twice – after being unlawfully turned away the first time – and now, ICE is continuing to stall.
I’m excited to announce that we are back with another in-person Town Hall – this time in Anne Arundel with County Executive Steuart Pittman! See below for details and RSVP info:
🗓️Tuesday, March 10th
⏱️6:30 PM (Doors open at 6:00)
📍Anne Arundel County (Exact location available upon RSVP)

Thanks for the productive meeting, Mr. County Exec!
That’s why I sat down with Howard County Executive Calvin Ball and his team to discuss how we can continue delivering for our neighbors - covering everything from earmark and economic development opportunities to supporting the County’s agricultural industry and library passport services.
Howard County has always led the way. This year, they’ve already stepped up to the plate to protect our neighbors and prevent an ICE detention facility here in Elkridge. But, there’s always work ahead.
Decades of scientific expertise helped determine these emission standards to prevent climate change and pollution in our communities. As Vice Ranking Member of the House Natural Resources Committee, I’m committed to restoring these longstanding protections for our neighbors and our planet.
ICYMI: President Trump’s EPA announced the biggest deregulatory action in U.S. history: eliminating all greenhouse gas emission and efficiency standards for vehicles.
Rep. Fine’s long history of bigoted language is beneath the institution and undeserving of the public trust. These Islamophobic statements, which he continues to double down on, cannot go unchecked.

This evening marks the start of Ramadan, a sacred time for reflection and prayer. During this holy month, I wish all those practicing a meaningful and easy fast. Ramadan Mubarak! 🌙
My thoughts are with his family, including my colleague @jonathanjackson.house.gov, during this difficult time.
His legacy reminds us that change comes from leaning in and speaking up, even in our nation's darkest moments. Rev. Jackson was nothing short of a giant in the fight for human dignity, and his loss is felt by so many.
A fighter for civil rights and justice, Reverend Jesse Jackson dedicated his life to giving voice to the voiceless. In the aftermath of Dr. Martin Luther King's assassination, rather than stepping back, Rev. Jackson continued his fierce activism on the ground and in politics for decades to come.
That’s why on this State of the Economy Day of Action, I wanted to highlight some real, commonsense solutions that House Democrats have put forward to help combat the rising costs that far too many of our neighbors are facing.
