From Social Security benefits to IRS and immigration issues, #TeamElfreth is here to help our neighbors on their hardest days. One of those neighbors, Bharat from Clarksville, had trouble getting his son’s much needed Social Security benefits, & our team was able to resolve their issue in one month!

Beautiful day to grab lunch at the one of my favorite traditions, the 34th annual Annapolis Greek festival! 🇬🇷
We are changing our approach to watershed restoration – not one project at a time, but dozens of projects within five distinct watersheds at rapid speed – through collaborative, creative efforts like these. Stay tuned for the work ahead!
Thank you so much to @marylanddnr.bsky.social Secretary Kurtz, Delegate Behler, @danajonesmaryland.bsky.social the Severn River Association, Chesapeake Bay Trust and all the other state, local, and private partners who made these projects possible.
Yesterday, we got to see the progress on the first of dozens of our Whole Watershed projects, which are helping control runoff on more than 6 acres of impervious ground and improving the health of the Severn River right here in Annapolis (it’s also helped bring back the minnows!).
Two years ago in the Maryland Senate, I authored the Whole Watershed Act with @saralove4md.bsky.social because we knew that we needed to think bigger, be bolder, & move faster to protect the Chesapeake Bay – acting at the scale & speed science & our communities demand like we never have before.
“We’ve always done it this way,” and “we’ve never done it that way” are two phrases I hate to hear from my partners in government.
If you’re under 18, then apply to the #MD03 America 250 Video Contest by Wednesday, June 10th at 11:59 PM & share what participation means to you. We can only continue this experiment for another 250 years if our young people keep leaning in, so apply today & make your voice heard! 🇺🇲
That’s why, in honor of this milestone year, my team and I want to hear how you all are continuing to be part of our democracy.
250 years ago, our nation was founded on the radical idea of self-determination, giving the people the power to decide who governs them. As your member of Congress, I have a role to play in this great experiment – but so do all of you!
Even if you weren’t able to join us in Howard County, we’ll be hosting a second district resource fair in Anne Arundel County soon – stay tuned for more details!
Whether it's veterans affairs, housing, health care, or any issue in between, Team Maryland is here to help. If you need assistance with a federal agency, please don’t hesitate to call (410) 832-8890 to speak to a member of my team.
Last night, my team and I were joined by 19 federal, state, local, business, and non-profit partners at our first #MD03 Constituent Resource Fair, where we helped connect hundreds of neighbors – including our youngest constituents – with services to help them on their hardest days.
Being your member of Congress means I not only get to represent your voice in Washington, but also on the ground in the District on all the issues you’re facing – big or small.
As always, if you think we can be of assistance on any issue with a federal agency, please don’t hesitate to reach out to a member of my team at (410) 832-8890.
My team and I shared our office’s resources – including assistance with Social Security, Medicare, Veterans Affairs, and more – to help our neighbors age with the dignity and independence they deserve.
As Older Americans Month comes to a close, I joined Anne Arundel County Department of Aging and Disabilities and Annapolis Recreations and Parks for their Older Americans Month Resource Fair, celebrating our older neighbors and connecting them with services to support their well-being.
Affordable, accessible childcare is also essential to a thriving economy – which is why I’m fighting to increase federal funding for these crucial programs so they can continue serving families in #MD03 and young people across the nation. Stay tuned for the work ahead!
Thank you to John, Amy, James, Jennifer, & the rest of the incredible team at the Y for the visit & the work you do for our neighbors every day. When Maryland children participate in Head Start, they are more likely to succeed in school, graduate from high school, and go on to complete college.
I visited the Eastport Y Head Start with Alderwoman Contee to tour their renovated facility, read “The Three Little Pigs”, & sit down with leadership & parents to discuss the program’s benefits, priorities, & my commitment to keep fighting for HeadStart funding in Washington.
