With help from the state, Richardson School of Music turned this lot into a school that'll strengthen the community.

Another great example of working in partnership w/ the MD Congressional Delegation, including @ChrisVanHollen, @RepRaskin, & our local partners in Montgomery County & Takoma Park.

Good riddance, Kristi Noem.

And to the next Secretary, letโ€™s work together to protect and support all Marylanders.

In Maryland, we know that service will save us. Thatโ€™s why weโ€™re excited to announce that applications are now open to join Class 4 of the Maryland Corps/Service Year Option program!

The first application deadline is April 1, visit serve.maryland.gov to learn more and apply today.

Kristi Noem is out at DHS โ€“ long overdue. But questions still remain.

Weeks ago, we warned her that the federal government's secretive ICE detention facility plan in Washington County risked becoming a federal occupation.

Marylanders still deserve answers, these questions aren't going away.

Technology should work FOR working families, not against them โ€” and that includes price tags at the grocery store.

Protect Marylanders from Price Manipulation

You shouldnโ€™t have to worry about an algorithm making you pay more at the cash register. Thatโ€™s why we introduced a bill to protect Marylanders from price manipulation and surveillance from stores and large corporations.

Trumpโ€™s illegal tariffs cost Marylandโ€™s businesses and consumers up to an estimated $4 billion.

This Holi, we stand alongside our fellow Marylanders in celebrating the vibrant festival of colors โ€” a season of renewal, togetherness, and hope.

May the joy and spirit of Holi spread across our state, our nation, and around the world with light, promise, and new beginnings.

The Maryland Flag was lowered to half-staff today in honor of Reverend Jesse Jackson.

Reverend Jackson was a giant of the civil rights movement and a champion for the dignity of working people. We thank him for his service to our country.

The Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit are two of the most important tools we have to lift families out of poverty.

If we want this to be Marylandโ€™s Decade, we need to ensure everyone has a real pathway to success.

I know the folks in Washington, D.C. seem to have different types of priorities and different things that are keeping their attention

Maryland is going to prove there is a better way

The Earned It Initiative helps connect Maryland families with the information they need to claim the money theyโ€™ve earned โ€“ and Comptroller Liermanโ€™s leadership has been critical in getting this program to succeed.

Visit MarylandComptroller.gov/EarnedIT to check your eligibility, then claim.

No se puede andar aterrorizando comunidades y lastimando a la gente y pensar que eso estรก bien. No en Maryland.

Por eso, @oagmaryland.bsky.social y yo estamos presentando una demanda en los tribunales para proteger a los residentes de Maryland frente al operativo de ICE de la administraciรณn Trump.

ICE Lawsuit

You canโ€™t go around terrorizing communities and hurting people and think thatโ€™s okay. Not in Maryland.

Thatโ€™s why @oagmaryland.bsky.social and I are suing to help protect Marylanders from the Trump administrationโ€™s ICE operation.

The Trump-Vance Administration waged war on our families and raised taxes on us all, costing Marylanders billions.

Weโ€™re demanding they pay Marylanders back.

Dawn and I join all of Maryland in sending our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of the service members killed in action, as well as to those who have been seriously wounded.

We continue to pray for peace and for the safety of all of our deployed service members.

We can stand with the Iranian people who support the cause of democracy and freedom without risking another conflict that sends another generation of American troops into combat.

For decades the Iranian regime has been an agent of terror in the region and we have been able to reach bipartisan consensus to restrict nuclear capabilities and promote stability in the region.

We owe the men and women executing on these orders a clear understanding of the mission. When we ask them to risk their lives, we need to be clear there is no other option.

I am closely monitoring the ongoing military operations in Iran. International military actions have a direct and profound impact on Marylandโ€™s families and communities.

I served in Afghanistan and Iโ€™ve seen who pays the price when Washington rushes into conflict.
