Another win for #MD03: as part of the over $6 million in federal funding #TeamMaryland secured for Annapolis, more than $1 million went to the Anne Arundel County Community Action Agency to support crucial re-entry and rehabilitation services.
Even as this Administration continues to undermine the expertise of our scientists, I will continue working with my colleagues – Democrat and Republican alike – to ensure Bay restoration is properly authorized and funded. Stay tuned as the bill heads to the floor!
Good news: the Chesapeake Bay WATERS Act to reauthorize key programs at the NOAA Bay Office secured unanimous passage out of the Natural Resources Committee! Located in Annapolis, the NOAA Chesapeake Bay Office does critical work to advance the health of the Bay for generations to come.
In today’s edition of Sarah Explains It All, I’ll be breaking down what the Equal Rights Amendment is and why we still need it today!
178 years ago today, women gathered in Seneca Falls for the first-ever women’s rights convention, and 75 years after that, the first version of the Equal Rights Amendment was introduced.
We must capitalize on our incredible partnerships at all levels of government - including the incredible work at the University of Maryland - to ensure we remain both collaborative and competitive.
Whether it’s defense, critical minerals, or even the Chesapeake Bay, we need to be a nation capable of doing big things again. I spoke at the Quantum Tech Showcase to discuss Maryland’s role in advancing this innovative technology.
We owe our servicemembers and their families a debt that can never be fully repaid, but we must begin by preventing future loss of life and bringing this war to an end.
Yesterday, we tragically lost two more brave American servicemembers in Jordan. I am keeping the loved ones of all those lost and injured in this war in my thoughts.
This week, I joined the Committee on House Administration to reflect on that experience as part of their Intern Lecture Series. Special thank you to my intern, Brooke, for the introduction!
A pivotal moment in my career was my Capitol Hill internship under @hoyer.house.gov. I know firsthand the important work interns do to serve #MD03 and communities around the country.
That’s why I’ve co-sponsored @houlahan.house.gov’a WARRIOR ACT to ensure all our servicemembers are evaluated based on job-related, gender-neutral standards.
Secretary Hegseth’s decision to repeatedly block the promotion of women and people of color without rationale has nothing to do with fairness and everything to do with divisive culture wars pushed by this Administration.
For the first time in over a decade, no active-duty female Navy officers will be promoted to admiral this year.
That’s why I worked alongside Rep. Wittman to introduce the bipartisan MAWS Act to create a new market for blue catfish in the pet food industry and remove them from our waterways – and this bill has already passed the House bipartisanly! Stay tuned as this bill heads to the Senate.
While we can all do our part and order blue catfish when we see it on a menu, as the largest biomass in the Bay today, this is not a problem that we can eat our way out of alone.
One of the greatest threats facing the Chesapeake Bay today, both economically and ecologically, is the invasive blue catfish. These monsters gobble up baby blue crabs, rockfish, and even oysters.
House Democrats will continue to stand against the SAVE Act and all of the President’s voter intimidation tactics to ensure that no matter the outcome, the voice of the American people is heard in November.
President Trump’s actions have shown us exactly where he stands on election integrity. Despite his desperate lies and claims of fraud, over the last 18 months, he has been the one dismantling the very offices that safeguard our elections at the federal level.
