Today, my team and I are volunteering at Anne Arundel County Food Bank and Howard County Food Bank to support their crucial operations.
Prior to the government shutdown, more than half of Americans were already living paycheck to paycheck. And now - four weeks of this shutdown - many of our neighbors, including federal workers and contractors, are turning to food banks to put food on the table each day.
📱We are now one week away from the Congressional App Challenge deadline! If you’re a middle or high school student in #MD03, passionate about coding, make sure you submit your app idea before 12:00 PM on Thursday, October 30th. For more details, check out the link below.
The American people, including many federal employees, are working day after day throughout this shutdown – the least we can do is be in Washington doing the jobs our constituents elected us to do.
But rather than bringing us together to negotiate a bipartisan budget bill and to address this health care crisis, in the past 100 days, Speaker Johnson has only called us into Congress 19 of them.
Congress has known for months that government funding would run out on September 30th and that the ACA tax credits would expire on January 1st.
Calling all #MD03 veterans & families! As we approach National Veterans & Military Families Month, we want to hear from you. If you have a story from your service you want to share, fill out our interest form by midnight TOMORROW, Friday, October 24, to be part of the Veteran’s History Project.
I’ve joined veterans @houlahan.house.gov & @goodlander.house.gov & nearly 100 of my Democratic colleagues to call out Secretary Hegseth’s harmful language & demand he reinstate the Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services that has been supporting our servicewomen for the past 75 years.
Yet, Secretary Hegseth and this Administration continue to question their merits and strip them of crucial resources based on blatantly false claims of gender diversity quotas and biased fitness standards.
Today, women make up more than 21% of our active-duty force, who have all put their safety and even their lives on the line in service of our country.
🏳️🌈 Happy Pride, Annapolis! I’ve been proudly marching in Annapolis Pride since before it was an official event, & it was so lovely to again be surrounded by hundreds of neighbors of all ages who came out to celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community & stand up in the fight for love, acceptance, & equality.
We’re only an hour away from our Instagram live with @repwalkinshaw.bsky.social! If you’re a federal employee in Virginia or Maryland looking for guidance on how our offices can support you during these uncertain times, be sure to tune in @repsarahelfreth today at 2:30 PM.
We cannot wait to negotiate any longer when open enrollment starts on November 1st, and people have already received notices of their premiums skyrocketing. I’m in Washington, ready to come to the table and get to work on your behalf.
Even though we’re nearing the longest government shutdown in our nation’s history, Speaker Johnson has continued to cancel votes – leaving us scattered across the country and unable to negotiate.
That’s why I’ve joined more than 165 of my bipartisan colleagues across the House and Senate to push back against the OMB’s threats to not provide furloughed employees with the pay they’ve earned and deserve.
It has been the law since 2019 that furloughed federal workers will receive back pay, and this shutdown does not give the President or OMB any power to change that.
Thank you to Governor Moore and County Executive Ball for being incredible partners throughout these uncertain times and for your swift response to this moment.
I joined @govwesmoore.bsky.social, Howard County Executive Calvin Ball, and other Maryland leaders in Howard County to meet with nearly 500 impacted federal workers and connect them with more than 50 state resources, along with announcing new resources to help our federal employees.
