It’s hard to believe it’s been 1 month since we awoke to the horrific news about the FSK Bridge.

will continue to fight for and ensure resources, funding & relief from the federal government to address not just the economic impact facing MD, but the entire country.

Limited options have allowed airlines to skirt traditional consumer protections.

Another game-changer from the Biden/Harris administration.

'Pleased to see Gubad Ibadoghlu released to house arrest to get the medical care he needs,' said Chair Senator Ben Cardin. 'He is an innocent man who deserves his freedom, full stop. I’ll continue advocating for him and the 250+ political prisoners still in Azerbaijani jails.'

On March 26, this moment seemed so far from reality.

Today, the first cargo ship passed through a newly opened 35-foot channel.

Each day I am amazed by the tenacity of the people on the frontlines of this clean-up. Together, Team Maryland gets the work done.

On International Guide Dog Day, I want to recognize the incredible work of groups like America's VetDogs. The enormous impact these programs have on our vets and first responders are undeniable.

As you can imagine, their visit is always a crowd favorite in my office.

At long last, we passed supplemental funding to aid Ukraine’s fight against Vladimir Putin.

While partisan games dangerously delayed the funding, this is still a major win for democracy and international solidarity.

Passing this supplemental means supporting incredibly brave Ukrainians who have taken on a mighty Russian army.

They have not given up hope on democracy. We cannot give up on them.

Last week, two planes at Reagan National Airport came within 400 feet of colliding on the runway.

Now is not the time to add more flights to DCA. We have a responsibility to prioritize passenger safety.

I'm proud of the ways Maryland has stepped up to be a climate leader by combatting plastic pollution.

Our focus should be on passing legislation that works to protect and preserve our Earth. We see the evidence before us; the longevity of our Earth is at stake.

Happy Earth Day! 🌎

When my pal, Senator Tom Carper asked me to contribute an Earth Day song to his Senate EPW Democrats playlist, I had to go with “Black Rock,” by our hometown heroes, O.A.R..

It’s a song about friendship, nature and Montgomery County.

We knew at the start of the year that Ukraine’s ammunition was dwindling and its financial situation was desperate.

We're more than halfway through April and the appropriation requested last September is not yet enacted. 
It’s time to get this done.

Housing costs have skyrocketed in recent years.

My bill with Senator Todd Young, the Neighborhood Homes Investment Act, would offer tax credits to attract private investment for building and renovating affordable new homes in under-resourced communities.

Housing is a human right.

Before President Biden and Democrats put pressure on pharmaceutical companies, sky-high insulin prices were just an accepted part of health care.

Now, thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, insulin is capped at $35. I’m proud of the work we’ve done on lowering healthcare costs.

I've spent so much time with Gov. Moore that our mannerisms are starting to match.

There's no other governor I'd rather twin with, Governor Wes Moore.

Baltimore has a long history as a union city, so it comes as no surprise that NFFE has stepped up to be there for its members while they carry out emotionally and physically demanding dives.

Another vital member of at work.
