We’re fighting back against Trump & Hegseth’s Orwellian censorship crackdowns. My legislation with @houlahan.house.gov restores banned books to schools for children of our servicemembers, protecting students’ right to read, think and read.

DONALD, YOU DIDN'T SOLVE INFLATION. YOUR ILLEGAL, UNCONSTITUTIONAL & DISCREDITED TARIFFS JACKED UP PRICES & AMERICAN FAMILIES ARE PAYING THE PRICE. BUT ENJOY YOUR TIME AWAY FROM THE EPSTEIN FILES W/ YOUR STRANGE JAUNT IN THE UK W/ A “KING”—REMEMBER WE DON’T ALLOW THEM HERE SIR!!
On National App Challenge Day, we’re searching out the talent and skills of young people in Maryland’s Eighth Congressional District. Calling all creative coders: submit your creative projects for this nationwide competition by October 30!

We celebrate the diverse cultures, rich traditions, and historic contributions of the Hispanic community in Maryland’s beautiful Eighth Congressional District and across America. Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! ¡Feliz Mes de la Herencia Hispana!
Director Patel, you've been blinded by your loyalty to Donald Trump, and as a result, you've betrayed Epstein's victims, turned your back on career FBI agents and left the American people less safe.
“Put on your big boy pants and let us know who the pedophiles are." -Then-t-shirt salesman & children's book writer Kash Patel.
It's been 200 days since Director Patel has been sworn in but he's still covering up for Trump & won’t take his own advice & release the Epstein file.
FBI Director Kash Patel steps before @democrats-judiciary.house.gov on Wednesday. America wants answers about the ongoing coverup allowing Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and their billionaire pals to thwart justice for trafficking victims and accountability for predators.
Gabe—It’s been such a great honor to work alongside you to deliver for our people. We know you aren't close to done yet with your powerful service to MoCo., but we wish you and your family all the best in your next chapter.
This week's Local Hero is Joann Donnellan. Whether advocating for the Alzheimer’s Association, volunteering at St. Ann’s Center for Children or leading a meal pack honoring the memory of all those we lost on 9/11, this MD-08 Local Hero leads a life of constant service and engagement.
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.
