Despite the Trump Administration’s attack on expert scientists and clean energy initiatives across the nation and here in the Free State, Maryland remains committed to making clean energy affordable and accessible to all our communities.

I’ve joined nearly 70 of my Democratic colleagues to push for legislation to ensure funding continues for WIC even in the event of a government shutdown – because hungry families can’t wait.
WIC helps some of our most vulnerable neighbors – new mothers, infants, and children – access nutritious food and other life-saving care each and every day. But if Congress does not act soon to end this shutdown, funding for WIC is at risk of running out.
House Democrats have been here, ready to go to work and negotiate a bipartisan budget deal, and I hope our Republican colleagues can join us.
19. That’s the number of days Speaker Johnson has called us into session out of the past 100. You all elected us to be in Washington, working on your behalf to find solutions on issues like the health care and affordability crisis.
With Veterans History Month right around the corner, my team and I want to hear directly from our #MD03 veterans. If you want to share your story, fill out our interest form linked below by Friday, October 24, 2025 to be part of the Library of Congress’ and my office’s Veterans History Project.
Thank you Chase Brexton for hosting us for your work each and every day caring for our community.
Today at Chase Brexton’s Glen Burnie Center, @brookelierman.bsky.social, Senator Pam Beidle, Delegate Dana Jones, and I discussed the importance of these ACA tax credits to not only the over 190,000 Marylanders who rely on them, but to our health care system as a whole.
As our constituents receive notices of their health care premiums increasing, Congress must act to reopen the government, extend the ACA tax credits, and protect the health care of millions of Americans.
There’s more to come on this work, but if you or anyone you know needs immediate help, please contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE.
This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, I wanted to convene this discussion on protecting VAWA grants, supporting our local partners, and finding legislative solutions to end the cycle of violence that too many in our community experience.
I’m so grateful to all the community partners who participated in our first domestic violence roundtable! 💜
Especially with this Administration’s attacks on science and scientists, I wanted to be there to celebrate AND thank UMCES staff for their work and dedication. Your work is needed now more than ever.
I’ve worked with many folks in this room since my time in college serving on the University System of Maryland Board of Regents, and have continued to lean on their world-recognized science while shaping policy in the Maryland Senate and now in the Congress.
Since 1925, UMCES has been paving the way for Bay restoration – studying water quality, leading the science on blue crabs and rockfish, establishing one of the world’s first oyster hatcheries, releasing the annual Bay Report Card, and more.
For the last 100 years, the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science has used the best science and utilized the best scientists to protect our Chesapeake Bay and its treasures!
This is great news for many of our neighbors who deliver services for the American people.
Since the days of DOGE, the President has tried to illegally fire tens of thousands of hard-working federal workers – but nothing about a shutdown gives him more authority to attack our civil servants. Today, a federal judge has agreed, ordering an immediate halt to these illegal firings.
Additionally, if you ever need help with Medicare or any other program, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our office at (410) 832-8890.
Today is the first day of open enrollment for Medicare. If you are 65+, you can enroll or make changes to your Medicare Advantage plan, medication plan, or general coverage from now until December 7th, 2025.
