The Trump Admin's policies have devastated thousands of federal employees and families in MD. Republicans' government shutdown will worsen the ongoing crisis.
Team Maryland is ready to work, ready to reopen government and end this health care crisis. It’s time for Republicans to come to the table.
My full statement regarding the Republican government shutdown:

My full statement regarding the last day of service for federal employees who took the Deferred Resignation Program (DRP):

Shutting down the government is not only wasteful, but it would devastate thousands of federal employees and millions more Americans who rely on their service.
Watch @housedemocrats.bsky.social continue the fight against the Republican shutdown:

The Trump Admin's policies have devastated the federal workforce, & Vought seeks to use the possible shutdown to further traumatize & villainize their service.
I joined @elfreth.house.gov & @alsobrooks.senate.gov to ensure federal workers have the support they need during a shutdown.
The Supreme Court's decision to uphold the removal of the only remaining Democrat on the FTC undermines the agency's work to protect American consumers, Congress' authority, & the Constitution itself.
Trump's actions to gain more & more power continues to threaten our democracy.
Those who want the government to stay open & operating don't threaten to purge the very people who make it work.
OMB Director Russell Vought's memo is part of his shameful campaign to vilify and traumatize federal employees, who serve our nation every day.
My full statement on Trump's shift regarding Ukraine:

Team Maryland is firm in our commitment to keeping BARC open despite the Trump Administration's efforts to shutter the center.
We will continue standing up for the agricultural community and the American people they serve.

The only American that Republicans' partisan funding bill serves is Donald Trump.
House Democrats are united in the fight to protect healthcare and the wellbeing of the American people.
I joined members of the Maryland Delegation to visit BARC, which has led innovation in agricultural research for decades.
We'll continue fighting the Trump Admin's efforts to shutter the facility and working to protect BARC, its experts, & the health and safety of the American people.
As Jews across America, in Israel, & around the world gather with their families to observe Rosh Hashanah, I pray that this new year is one of joy & new beginnings.
Let us all strive to find moments of sweetness in this season of renewal. Shana Tova.
The Key Bridge was a vital transportation artery & gateway to the Port of Baltimore, & the federal government's commitment to fund the rebuild was enacted in law.
Team Maryland will keep working with the Department of Transportation to deliver on this national priority & commitment.
This week, Republicans advanced four bills that undermine Washington D.C.’s autonomy & disregard the will of Washingtonians and their elected officials.
The people of our nation's capital deserve better. They deserve statehood.
House Republicans may have successfully jammed through their partisan funding bill today, but they failed to challenge Trump's cuts, lower costs, and protect health care.
Democrats will continue working to ensure the government functions for all Americans.
The science is clear: carbon pollution endangers the health & welfare of Marylanders & Americans across the country.
Team Maryland will keep working to ensure the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency continues to uphold scientific consensus & combat the impact of climate change in our communities.
