These rules will prevent bad actors & corrupt foreign oligarchs from using the U.S. real estate market to launder their ill-gotten gains. This may not get much attention, but it's something we’ve long pushed for. Thankful to Secretary Janet Yellen for getting it done!apnews.com/article/real-e…

Doesn’t get much better than an all-American duel at the #USOpen! While we really can’t lose in this one, I’ll be rooting for Marylander Frances Tiafoe — who is back in the semifinals for the second time and making our state proud every day. Way to go, Frances Tiafoe!
In the midst of a busy summer, I’m glad Senator Ben Cardin and I were able to take a quick break to resolve one of the great regional disputes of our time. Maryland’s honor has been restored: the Orange Crush is ours.
Maryland has huge potential for harnessing offshore wind to create good-paying jobs, cut energy costs and fight the climate crisis. Â This move by President Biden is the latest milestone in our work to accelerate wind energy deployment in Maryland and across the country.
