Condemning another absolutely disgraceful act of gun violence. My thoughts & prayers are w/ Charlie Kirk & his family in this terrible moment & we are all grateful for first responders who immediately jumped into action.
We must categorically reject all violence in our society.

Authoritarianism thrives on fear and intimidation. But courage is contagious and people are standing up everywhere against the onslaught.
The times that we are in force us to think not just like legislators, but like litigators (not to mention demonstrators).
House Democrats are using every means available to defend the Constitution and the rights of the people against tyrants and ripoff artists.
MAGA and their rag-outlets not only pretend January 6, 2021 was a “beautiful day,” as Trump says, but defame police—many of whom were beaten, hospitalized and disabled by Trump’s rampaging mob—who bravely defended our democracy.
Back the Blue or Back the Coup? It’s up to you.
If MAGA wants to return to the scene of the crime, we’ll just tell the truth. Trump incited a violent mob on January 6, 2021 to block the peaceful transfer of power after he lost the election 306-232 and failed in 60 federal and state court lawsuits.
House Democrats fought to bring this sickening letter into the light while Trump and MAGA mouthpieces assured us it did not exist. Trump even sued the Wall Street Journal for reporting on it!
We can't trust a word MAGA says. Release the full Epstein file NOW!
Honored to join the Jewish Social Service Agency’s Family Wellness Day in Gaithersburg’s beautiful Bohrer Park to celebrate the critical work of all our nonprofit social service agencies.
Balancing a dazzling career in business with a passionate commitment to Montgomery County and public education, this week’s Local Hero, Kevin Beverly, is an extraordinary leader for our community in difficult times.
In Maryland, we’re fired up to defend American democracy and freedom.
I just spoke with more than 15,000 constituents in MD-08 on a community telephone town hall. Thank you for joining in and hang tough everyone!
When Trump smashed up the Education Department, he upended the lives and careers of countless civil servants like my constituents, Dr. Carter and Dr. Joseph. These patriots serve America’s kids and America’s future, not the whims of an anti-education president.
Epstein survivors gave a brave accounting of the horrific abuse they endured as children caught up in the billionaires’ human trafficking ring.
Trump's desperate campaign to bury their testimony and demands as a “Democrat hoax” is pathetically transparent. Release the files.
The Trump family is cashing in on the presidency by raking in billions from their corrupt meme coin, which can be purchased covertly by foreign states and corporations, organized crime networks, pardon seekers and job seekers, to name just a few. What could go wrong?
Reposted byRep. Jamie Raskin
RM Jamie Raskin explains that Republicans’ fixation on Europe’s online safety laws is all a distraction. When Trump is banning books and detaining students for exercising their First Amendment Rights, the Republicans need to start looking closer to home.
Rather than uphold free expression & human rights against tyrants in Russia, China, Pakistan & North Korea, the GOP has called a hearing on free speech to attack our democratic allies in Europe!
To the world's dictators & autocrats, have no fear: Trump & House Republicans have got your back.
A House majority isn't backing down until we get the full Epstein File, not some watered-down, sanitized and redacted counterfeit doctored by Pam Bondi and Kash Patel.
Release the real File and let the American people decide.
The law is clear, whether you like it or not: Members of Congress have the right to conduct oversight of ICE facilities.
No law gives Trump the power to target his chosen political enemies, like @replamonica.bsky.social, simply for doing their jobs and their duties.
Trump's militarization of law enforcement is not only dangerous, it's against the law. The Framers were afraid of tyrants turning standing armies against the people in the 18th century, and we reject it in the 21st.
It’s a tough Labor Day with Trump’s assault on public workers and labor rights but the union movement is tough and America overwhelmingly supports the right to organize and bargain.
American federalism goes to work. As RFK Jr. heads down the road of more measles, more COVID-19 and more flu, public health states must develop our own strategies to stay safe.
Our Labor Day MD-08 Local Heroes are Craig Becker & Ann Rosenthal. When he was General Counsel at AFL-CIO, Craig launched the Rise Up: Legal Defense Network, matching federal workers sacked by Trump & DOGE with free legal support & direction. Ann is a volunteer in the project.
