"...you spend all your money on fuel…you got to pass it on to the customer. I mean, anything other than that, you'll go out of business." —Avery Heights, MD small business owner via @cbsnews.com.
Trump’s policies and his war with Iran mean small businesses get squeezed, and customers pay more.
When I taught American government in my childhood community, I saw myself in my students.
I wanted to make sure they had the same opportunities I did, and that’s what led me to public service.
Great to speak with Maryland Student Legislature leaders about their own journeys.
That’s why we must pass @repjohnnyo.bsky.social's Pardon Integrity Act, a Constitutional amendment that gives Congress the power to reject presidential pardons by a two-thirds vote. No president should be able to use clemency as a shield for criminals who serve his interests.
The need for reform is clear. A tool meant to correct injustices is instead enabling them. It is time to protect the Constitution and the rule of law with common sense limits that restore public trust.
Trump has promised blanket pardons to everyone within 200 feet of the Oval Office. You don’t do that unless you’re asking people to do things that are wrong or illegal.
The pardon power was never supposed to be a get-out-of-jail-free card for the president’s inner circle.
The Pardon Integrity Act will bring oversight to a pardon system that’s been abused for far too long.
Let's get it done.
Under Trump, the top 1% get richer while everyone else gets poorer.
Today is #TaxDay—the last day to file your taxes!
You can file your Maryland tax return for free, or make payments using the fee-free eCheck system at MarylandComptroller.gov.
Stronger communities start with real investments. Proud to deliver this funding for Carroll County with @vanhollen.senate.gov.
Last night, the Maryland General Assembly showed up for families across #MD02 and beyond!
Great to join them for #SineDie, where they worked all the way until midnight to pass final legislation. Until next year!
Today, we remember and honor the six million Jewish people murdered in the Holocaust. We must recommit to standing against antisemitism and bigotry in all forms.

Trump's war is driving up the cost of living.
@cnn.com @audiecornish.bsky.social
You're paying the cost of Trump’s policies and his war with Iran.
As we mark 47 years of the Taiwan Relations Act, we recognize the strength and importance of the U.S.-Taiwan partnership.
I’ve seen Taiwan’s resilience firsthand as a member of the @houseforeign.bsky.social Subcommittee on East Asia & the Pacific. We’ll continue to support peace and stability.
A war without a plan, and you're paying for it.
Gas is $4.09 in Maryland—up 8 cents in a week and nearly 80 cents from last year.
Billions for bombs, nothing for basics.
Congress should pass a War Powers Resolution, and if there’s any indication President Trump will follow through on this threat, the cabinet must invoke the 25th Amendment.
Reckless, dangerous rhetoric from the most powerful office in the world.
This isn’t leadership. This is a threat to end millions of innocent lives, which would lead to catastrophic results for America and the world.
Small businesses like Coffee Talk Cafe keep Towson strong! Congratulations on 10 years of bringing our community together and serving incredible coffee. ☕️
Easter is a day for peace and reflection. The rhetoric from President Trump is beyond unacceptable any day, but it’s especially so today.
The President’s words do not reflect the lessons and values of Jesus, and they should be rejected by all in the Christian faith.
Happy Easter to all in #MD02. May you enjoy a celebratory day filled with love and blessings!
Now do Secretary Hegseth.
We need to make presidents think twice before issuing egregious pardons.
My bipartisan constitutional amendment would do just that by allowing Congress to review presidential pardons. Let's get it done.
The Key Bridge symbolized our community's grit and fortitude—its collapse was painful for so many.
That's why I was honored to join the Baltimore Museum of Industry’s opening of the "Key Bridge: Building a Baltimore Landmark" exhibit commemorating the workers who built our cathedral in the sky.
Bring Congress back to D.C. now, Speaker Johnson.
The Senate already passed a unanimous, bipartisan funding plan. You can end this GOP shutdown today.
We're waiting, as are the American people.
#MD02 is cheering NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman on! 🚀
As Mission Commander of Artemis II, he is helping lead humanity’s return to the Moon and charting a path to Mars. Good luck!
This was a deliberate choice.
House Republicans must join us in passing this funding TODAY.
🚨The Senate finally passed what House Democrats have been pushing for weeks—DHS funding without another penny for ICE or Border Patrol.
TSA agents have been unnecessarily left behind, working without pay, as Americans are stranded at airports around the country.
