It has been a tremendous honor to serve the state I am grateful to call home in public office. Today and every day I am proud to celebrate and advocate on behalf of the Marylanders that make our state so special. Happy Maryland Day to all!
Thrilled to celebrate the runway and terminal expansion at the St. Mary’s County Regional Airport, which will increase safety & efficiency while supporting critical services and economic development. I remain proud to support these federal investments in Southern Maryland's infrastructure & economy.
My commitment to that cause continues, and I hope we can realize his vision for a facility that meets the security and operational needs of the Bureau. I am grateful for his service and for the service of all the brave men and women at the FBI.
Nearly two decades ago, as FBI Director, he asked for my help in finding a site for a new consolidated headquarters for the FBI so that it could move out of the dilapidated J. Edgar Hoover Building.
I join the nation in mourning the loss of Robert Mueller. He devoted his life to upholding the rule of law. He did so despite facing immense political pressure and numerous personal attacks on his character, which sadly have continued since his passing.
Putting the Affordable Care Act on the Floor as Majority Leader and helping secure its passage 16 years ago was one of the most important moments in my six decades of public service. No one should have to choose between their health and financial security.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social remain firm: we must rein in ICE & CBP and reopen the other DHS agencies. I urge my colleagues across the aisle to end the pain they are inflicting on our federal workers and the American people, and to sign our discharge petition now.
Every day, U.S. Capitol Police officers work to protect our Congress from threats within & outside of the Capitol. We must ensure they have the support they need to continue keeping Members, staff, and visitors safe and informed. I thank USCP for their courage & service to our Congress and country.
Collective bargaining is the strongest tool workers have to create a fair workplace, and the restoration of these rights is a huge win for federal workers & our veterans. I thank AFGE for their commitment to civil servants. We’ll keep working to counter the Admin’s attacks on the federal workforce.
TSA workers are set to miss their first full paycheck today, and Republicans in Congress continue to block legislation that would fund TSA along with other law-abiding agencies within DHS.
As Marylanders are facing financial strain at the hands of the Trump Admin, it is critical that we continue to combat rising energy prices for working families. The Maryland Congressional Delegation will keep working with our state and regional partners to lower all Marylanders' electricity costs.
The violent, antisemitic attack at the Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan is despicable. I continue to pray for the schoolchildren, congregants, synagogue staff, and the local Jewish community at this time. I thank the law enforcement for their emergency response efforts.
Sadly, almost all immigrants who have come to America have faced similar prejudice and hate. Muslim Americans, like so many others before them, have made and continue to make positive contributions to our country.
