Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in Maryland and across the country. That's why I'm partnering with Senator Katie Britt on legislation to expand access to life-saving heart health screenings.
Deamonte Driver, a 12-year-old Marylander, died from a preventable tooth infection. His story moved Sen. Cardin to fight for dental access. 19 years later, I’m continuing that work—let’s pass my Medicare & Medicaid Dental, Vision, and Hearing Benefit Act.
I will not be attending tonight’s State of the Union address. Our country has been thrust into an accountability and affordability crisis through the cruelty, lawlessness, and greed of this President and his Administration. I will not dignify his actions with my presence.
This Admin is trying to silence experts for telling the truth: Americans are paying the price for tariffs. I’m leading colleagues in demanding the White House stop bullying non-partisan researchers for reporting data that doesn’t fit their narrative.
Honored to celebrate the grand opening of the High Ridge Center, a historic space bringing all Divine 9 organizations together under one roof. This is more than a building, it’s a hub for service, fellowship, and community, and a model for the nation on what collaboration looks like.
CDC safeguards were bypassed to fast-track a controversial vaccine study. There was no proper review, infants were put at risk, and scientists worldwide raised ethical concerns. Once again, RFK Jr.’s "leadership" is putting public trust and lives at risk.
Title: New Documents Reveal A Controversial Vaccine Study’s Unusual Path to CDC Approval

A Rolling Stone investigation uncovered irregularities in the ethics review of a $1.6 million research grant to examine the effects of a birth dose of the hepatitis B vaccine in Guinea-Bissau
This Administration has collected an estimated $175 billion in illegal tariffs. We’re fighting to get every penny back. Our bill requires a FULL refund with interest. It’s time to return this money to working Americans and small businesses.
Senator Alsobrooks Co-Sponsors Legislation Requiring Refunds of Trump's Illegal Tariffs
What does the Tariff Refund Act of 2026 do?

- Requires CBP to pay refunds of all tariffs that were unlawfully imposed by the President under IEEPA and paid by importers—even if the importation has already been finalized and closed (“liquidated”) by CBP.
- Sets a deadline of 180 days after enactment for CBP to process all refunds.
- Requires CBP to pay interest on the refunded amount.
- Directs CBP to prioritize small businesses when paying refunds and to coordinate with the SBA to provide key information on the refund process to small businesses.
- Requires CBP to report every 30 days to relevant congressional committees on the status of refunds until CBP has completed the payment of all refunds.
- Directs CBP to issue guidance on how to address duty drawback claims.
- Expresses the Sense of Congress that importers, wholesalers, and large corporations should pass on those refunds to their customers.
I am working with my team to monitor the ongoing situation in Mexico. If you are a Maryland resident traveling in Mexico, or plan to do so soon, you can sign up for the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program to get State Department alerts. mytravel.state.gov/s/step
Visited the YMCA in Abingdon to meet with Y Maryland leadership about the critical services they provide, from youth programs to senior support. As funding challenges grow, I’ll keep fighting to protect SNAP, Medicaid, and Head Start so families can access the care and opportunities they deserve.
I hosted “Real Men, Real Talk” with County Executive Calvin Ball and an incredible panel of experts to discuss the physical, mental & emotional health of men and boys. Too many suffer in silence and we must break the stigma.
The YWCA of Annapolis & Anne Arundel is on the front lines supporting survivors of domestic violence. I joined @vanhollen.senate.gov and @elfreth.house.gov to deliver $697,000 in federal funding to strengthen and expand their lifesaving work in Anne Arundel County.
The Supreme Court ruled the Admin’s disastrous tariffs are illegal and reaffirmed that Congress sets trade policy. I fought for tariff transparency and accountability from day one. We must refund Americans who were forced to pay for these illegal, chaotic, and arbitrary tariffs.
This Administration’s illegal and disastrous tariffs have hurt Marylanders – the families who have struggled every day to put food on the table, the farmers on the Eastern Shore, the small businesses in downtown Baltimore, the manufacturers in Mountain Maryland – and everyone in between. Finally, the Supreme Court ruled these tariffs are an unconstitutional tax on the American people, saying the President lacks authority to use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs. The Court reaffirmed that the power of the purse resides with Congress.

When I first came to the Senate one year ago, I knew I needed to act fast to hold the President and Republicans accountable for these disastrous tariffs. My first bill, the Tariff Transparency Act, would have required the Trump Administration to disclose the true cost of many of these tariffs to the American people. Republicans blocked it.
I continued to fight for Maryland businesses, farmers, and families in fighting against these tariffs – joining many amicus briefs at every step of the litigation process, including the Supreme Court case that led to today’s decision. 

Today’s decision reaffirms Congress’ responsibility to set trade policy. The Administration must work with Congress quickly to refund Marylanders for the money they have paid for tariffs that were chaotic, arbitrary, and now illegal.

I toured SURVICE Engineering in Belcamp, where they are helping advance cutting-edge drone technology. I was proud to secure federal funding that strengthens our national security and keeps Maryland at the forefront of research, development, and innovation.
I met with leaders from the Army Alliance, Aberdeen Proving Ground, and local partners in Aberdeen to learn about their vision for the future. Maryland plays a critical role in our national security, and I’m committed to advancing investments that strengthen our communities.
Public health suffers when fear keeps people from living their normal lives— from going to work, school, or the doctor. These ICE tactics are creating dangerous barriers that will harm our communities for years to come.
