This week, the House passed our annual defense bill, where we were able to secure crucial wins for our servicemembers, veterans, and Maryland. Here’s a quick look at some of the 28+ priorities that were included in the final bill. Stay tuned for more!
⚓️ @deluzio.house.gov joined me for an important PSA: #GoNavy !
This legislation repeals President Trump’s executive order that stripped union rights from federal workers and makes sure that our hardworking civil servants get the protections they’ve earned and deserve.
BIG NEWS: Today, a bipartisan group of 218 members, led by @golden.house.gov, forced a vote on the Protect America’s Workforce Act – AND it passed! Collective bargaining, fairness, dignity, and respect in the workplace shouldn’t be partisan.
We cannot sacrifice bipartisan, longstanding environmental partnerships, which is why I spoke on the House floor to urge my colleagues to vote NO on this bill.
This week, House Republicans put forward the PERMIT Act, which would weaken the Clean Water Act while targeting our region by undermining the EPA’s role in the multi-state, collaborative Chesapeake Bay Agreement that has secured massive victories for the Chesapeake Bay Watershed for over 4 decades.
Water does not adhere to arbitrary state lines – pollution in Pennsylvania will flow downstream to Maryland and Virginia.
That's why I’ve co-sponsored the LET’S Protect Workers Act to ensure there are proper penalties in place on exploiting workers, endangering children, and limiting the right to organize hardworking Americans.
Every American deserves the basic dignity of being paid what they are owed for the work they've done. Nobody should fear for their job or their safety as they exercise their right to organize with their colleagues.
This week, as part of our state-wide military installation tour, I visited the Naval Surface Warfare Center with @hoyer.house.gov to see their cutting-edge facility, sit down for lunch with enlisted Marines, & learn more about how we can support their mission to enhance our national security.
The facility started as a testing facility and has since expanded to the forefront of research and response missions for all branches of the military – it’s also one of our region’s largest employers!
Since 1890, the Naval Support Facility in Indian Head, located here in southern Maryland, has been essential to our military readiness.
While I don't agree with everything in the bill, I'm grateful my colleagues and I could come together, even across the aisle, to secure meaningful wins for our servicemembers, veterans, and military families in Maryland and across the country.
I worked with Congressman Schmidt on a provision to improve access to care for veterans at facilities like the world-renowned Walter Reed National Military Medical Center & with Congressman Wittman to help the Naval Academy & all military academies brace for extreme weather & sea-level rise.
I came to Congress ready to join the House Armed Services Committee because it is one of the few places in Congress that works collaboratively across the aisle to pass legislation every year. This year's annual defense bill reflects the bipartisan nature of the Committee.
Today, I voted to advance the bipartisan National Defense Authorization Act. While it is not perfect, the legislation places important checks on this Administration and delivers tangible wins for our servicemembers, for Maryland, and our allies. See my full statement below.
Join @repjuliejohnson.bsky.social, our special guest Congressman Derek Tran, & me on Instagram @RepSarahElfreth to learn about the ways my Democratic colleagues & I are working to make life more affordable for hardworking Americans. Hope to see you there!
We’re about to kick off our new series, Sh*t is Too Expensive, in less than ONE hour!
Despite this Administration’s attacks on working families, #TeamMaryland will continue fighting to protect our communities in need and ensure our neighbors are able to feed themselves and their families.
