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.
Today and every day, we remember all that Congressman Lewis fought for and honor his legacy by continuing to get into Good Trouble.
Six years ago, we lost the legendary Congressman John Lewis. From his speech at the March on Washington to his courageous leadership crossing the Edmund Pettus Bridge to his decades of service in Congress, his work has touched countless lives.
He continues to threaten states, demand passage of the SAVE Act to disenfranchise millions of women, and sow doubt and distrust in our free and fair elections because he sees no other path forward. Mr. President, you can’t rig the game just because you’re losing.
Here’s the truth: The President has lost over 60 times in court over his unsubstantiated claims of election fraud.
Tonight, President Donald Trump gave an unhinged speech filled with old grievances, conspiracy theories, and blatant lies around his 2020 loss to President Biden. There was no new information here.
