Serving on the Helsinki Commission was one of the defining chapters of my 45 years in the House. While we face many challenges to protect democracy, I remain hopeful that it will continue to endure.

I was honored to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award from Maryland-Bosnia and Herzegovina Exchange Council alongside my dear friend, Ben Cardin.
I've always said that it's dangerous to rely on the unreliable. Sadly, Donald Trump has made America look unreliable in the eyes of the world. That endangers our country, alienates our allies, and emboldens our adversaries.

Trump's reckless tariffs have dramatically increased prices and uncertainty for hardworking American families.
That's why House Dems forced a successful vote to remove Trump's tariffs on Canada. We remain committed to lowering costs for all.
Republicans are pushing a federal takeover of state & local elections to rig the system & block millions of eligible voters from participating in our democracy. I urge my Senate colleagues to stand against this blatant attempt at voter suppression to ensure all Americans can make their voices heard.
Trump's federal troops should have never been in Minneapolis in the first place.
We must ensure that the families of Alex Pretti and Renee Good see justice served and that the American people receive the answers they deserve about why this violence is happening.

Every Jew must be able to worship without fear for their safety. It is crucial that we come together to eradicate the cancer of antisemitism from Maryland and our world.
The antisemitic graffiti on the Shaare Tefila synagogue is reminiscent of the prejudice Jews have endured for millennia. I wholly condemn this sickening vandalism.
Despite modest job growth in January, 500,000 more Americans were unemployed last month than when Trump's second term began.
Meanwhile, he has profited billions of dollars off the presidency. No wonder 40% of Americans believe their lives will get worse in the next five years.
Glad to sit down with College of Southern Maryland leadership and discuss ways to continue supporting their mission in ensuring students' academic & personal growth.
We'll keep working together to create new opportunities for Southern Maryland students & provide the resources they need to succeed.
Honored to join a screening of Children in the Fire, a compelling film about Ukrainian children whose peaceful, safe childhood was ripped from them by Russia’s 2022 invasion.
I thank them for sharing their stories & reminding Congress & the world what is at stake if we don't stand up against Putin.
Always great to meet with Tim Shriver Special Olympics MD to discuss their impressive achievements & advancing opportunities for participants.
I look forward to continuing our work together to support people with intellectual disabilities and end discrimination in sports, health care, & education.
I look forward to bringing even more crucial resources to our region.

While the Trump Administration continues to increase the cost of living up for Americans, it's vital that we keep investing in our communities.
That's why I'm pleased to announce #MD05 received $7.1M for community projects in the most recent appropriations law.
Sadly, the President’s post is once again reflective of who he is.
Glad to meet with @wmatagm.bsky.social and my fellow Members in the greater Washington Metro Area to discuss reliable and safe public transport for our region.
I look forward to our continued partnership with 'America's Metro' to support our communities and keep our economy moving forward.
On FMLA's 33rd anniversary, let us recommit to ensuring more Americans are protected as they seek to balance work and family obligations.
All of us have experienced challenging medical and family circumstances. The Family and Medical Leave Act was the first step towards protecting employees for extended leave, but more is needed.
I proudly joined my National Capital Region colleagues to announce the launch of the Federal Workforce Caucus.
The American people need our federal employees energized and uplifted, not traumatized. I have fought to protect them from DOGE's crusade, and Congress must do the same.
