In June of 2022, after the Dobbs decision, I – along with so many other women – woke up with fewer freedoms than I had the day before, and the consequences of this ruling have only worsened in the years since.

Today marks the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade. As the youngest woman elected to the Maryland State Senate and the youngest woman elected to Congress from Maryland, I’ve dealt with the reality of a post-Roe world firsthand.
We are all united in the fight for free and fair democracy – that’s why I joined @repyassansari.bsky.social in a bipartisan resolution commending the bravery of the Iranian citizens & recognizing the right of the Iranian people & any people to have a government that reflects the will of the people.
Over the past week, we have seen unprecedented violence in Iran as the Islamic Republic has resorted to using violent military force against civilian protesters who are simply fighting for basic human rights and freedoms.
As a former member of the Women’s Caucus at the State House and now a proud member of the @demwomencaucus.bsky.social, I’m committed to the continued fight for women’s rights here in Congress and alongside our state and local partners.
Since 1972, the Women Legislators of Maryland have been laser-focused on advancing legislation that improves the lives of women and families in Maryland.
I am beyond honored to receive the Women in Government award from the Women Legislators of Maryland Foundation and the Maryland Women’s Caucus alongside @alsobrooks.senate.gov and @repaprildelaney.bsky.social!
In this edition, we’ll be joined by @bynum.house.gov to discuss her commonsense Junk Fee Prevention Act that would lower costs for consumers across the country by cracking down on hidden fees. We’ll be going live TOMORROW, January 22nd, at 3:30 PM EST @RepSarahElfreth on Instagram. Don’t miss it!
That’s why we’re back with another edition of our series where @repjuliejohnson.bsky.social and I sit down with colleagues across the country to highlight all the ways House Democrats are working to tackle the affordability crisis that too many of our neighbors are facing.
President Trump promised to lower costs on day one, yet more than a year into his Administration, we’re still hearing overwhelmingly from our neighbors: sh*t is too expensive!
I will share more reflections on my travel & meetings with our NATO allies both on the House floor and this platform later this week. In the meantime, please know I am more committed than ever to working on a bipartisan basis to protect the United States & preserve our greatest alliance in history.
His means of punishing our strongest allies via tariffs for simply standing behind Article V threatens not just their economies, but ours as well. And the only winners here are our adversaries, chief among them Vladmir Putin.
I'm only grateful – from a purely timing perspective – that the President's letter broke in the news while we were on our way home.
The President's stated motivation to seize Greenland is personal and petty.
I use that word specifically: I just returned from a bipartisan trip to visit our NATO allies Sweden & Finland this weekend, meeting with their Ministers of Defense & Finland's Foreign Minister to discuss our commitment to NATO, Arctic defense, & mutual goal to defend freedom around the world.
The President’s escalation of threats regarding Greenland were reckless before this letter, and now they are also wildly embarrassing.
I had a chance to sit down with Australia's Secretary of Defense, Greg Moriarty, to discuss improving submarine technology & production, workforce training, and more ways Congress can work as a coequal partner in the alliance to strengthen collaboration with one of our closest allies in the future.
Since 2021, the partnership between Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States – also known as AUKUS – has played a critical role in responding to changing national security priorities for our country and our allies throughout the Indo-Pacific.
Today, as we reflect on his legacy in honor of Martin Luther King Jr., we commit to building a country that lives up to Dr. King’s vision of brotherhood and acceptance for all.
In a time when politics seems to be more divided than ever, when many of us feel more powerless than ever, & when civil rights & voting rights are under attack nearly everyday by this President, we can all look to Dr. King’s words & legacy to persist, lean in, & continue standing up for our values.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s unwavering vision for a better future changed the course of our nation’s history.
