Thank you to everyone in #MD05 and #MD04 for joining last night’s Virtual Town Hall with @ivey.house.gov and Prince George's County At-Large Council Member Jolene Ivey. We will not rest until federal workers have the resources they need to weather Trump & Musk's bullying.
Tune in now as I join Rep. Glenn Ivey and Council Chair Jolene Ivey for a telephone town hall where we are answering questions for federal employees in #MD04 and #MD05: www.youtube.com/live/xjfOawt...
Join me, Congressman Glenn Ivey, and Prince George’s County Council Member Jolene Ivey for a Virtual Town Hall this evening to discuss how the Trump Administration's attacks would impact federal employees in #MD04 and #MD05. Register here: tinyurl.com/IveyFedWorker
The "Deferred Resignation" offer from OPM to federal employees is deceptive, undermines vital services for Americans, & would raise costs for taxpayers. I joined @murray.senate.gov, @reed.senate.gov, and @delauro.house.gov with important questions about the legal basis of this “buyout."
In the spirit of Valentine's Day, I invite #MD05 to show appreciation for those who have served our country with Valentines for Vets! Bring cards to my office by Thursday February 6th for my staff and I to deliver them to the Charlotte Hall Veterans Home and Walter Reed Medical Center.
USAID and its federal employees faithfully serve to advance America's credibility and interests abroad. Musk and Trump's effort to end USAID is part of their mission to overwhelm the public's attention with chaos, crisis, and absurdity. I will not let them. hoyer.house.gov/media/press-...
Elon Musk and Donald Trump's illegal overrun of USAID undermines the Constitution and attempts an end run around Congress. I will continue to stand up for federal employees, the civil service, and America's leadership around the world.
I am proud to join in observing #BlackHistoryMonth to honor the culture and achievements of Black Americans who continue to shape our nation. Every day we must reflect on how far we've come and continue the work to advance equality and opportunity for all to Make It in America.
In the wake of the collision on Wednesday evening, we aim to diminish the further risk of both civilian and militant lives in the airspace above our region.
I am deeply saddened to learn residents from Southern Maryland were among the victims of the collision near DCA on Wednesday night. My office is continuing to monitor the situation. My thoughts are with the victims' families and the Southern Maryland community at this time.
My office is closely monitoring the collision between an American Airlines flight and military helicopter near DCA last night. Thank you to the first responders who are working tirelessly on the recovery operation. My prayers are with the victims and their loved ones.
I, alongside Team Maryland, will not take my eye off the ball when it comes to defending our civil servants and working to ensure Marylanders can access needed resources Congress has provided.
Trump’s Administration has now walked back its call to shut off federal grant and loan funding - even as they continue to threaten these funds. But one thing is clear: this chaos has left Americans with uncertainty, fear, and anxiety about the President’s ability to lead this nation.
