This isn't about one slush fund or one president. I've introduced legislation to stop any president from using taxpayer money to bankroll their political allies and score a family sweeping Super Pardon.
Congress must act urgently to ban these ripoff schemes and collusive 'settlements.'

On D-Day, thousands of brave Americans descended on the shores of Normandy, risking their lives for our freedom and democracy. Today, we honor their service and pledge never to forget their nobility, dedication and patriotism.
This week's Local Hero is Crystal Foretia, a MoCo native and Yale Law School student, who dedicated years of study to the history of racial segregation in Maryland's youth justice system. She discusses with me some of her powerful and disturbing findings.
A bipartisan majority in the House voted to rein in President Trump's lawless, profligate and blood-soaked war in Iran. Only Congress can declare war and no such declaration has been made. This is a win for the powers and the wisdom of the legislative branch.
President Trump's extraordinarily corrupt slush fund would funnel $1.8 billion of taxpayer money to his political patrons and January 6 white nationalist foot soldiers.
While the courts blocked the DOJ scheme for now, Congress still must act to bar this dirty deal forever.
This Pride Month let’s resolve to keep defending the civil rights and liberties of our LGBTQIA+ neighbors and of all Americans against authoritarian clampdown.
Happy Pride and keep pride in democracy.
In honor of the 75th anniversary of MoCo Public Libraries, this week's MD-08 Local Hero is the dazzling Sarah Fradkin, head of adult services at the Rockville Memorial Library. Sarah shared the exciting details of the library’s upcoming Summer Reading program. Let’s all sign up and read!
It's an extraordinary pleasure to share with you our 2026 Congressional Art Competition Virtual Art Gallery. Check out the creative and awe-inspiring pieces made by MD-08 high school student artists.
Springsteen spoke for America last night from Nats Park when he said Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund is "an American outrage."
The people’s representatives in Congress cannot allow hundreds of millions of our tax dollars to be showered on MAGA partisans and white nationalist foot soldiers.
The Trump Administration is abruptly closing two USDA childcare centers for federal workers, giving families less than three months to make new arrangements for their kids.
If this administration is so “pro-family,” then USDA should immediately reverse this action.
This Memorial Day, we remember and honor our patriotic service members who gave the last full measure of devotion to protect our democracy and our liberty. May their memory be a blessing to their families and to all who cherish freedom in America.
This week’s MD-08 Local Hero is the amazing Rob Goldman, who has led the Montgomery Housing Partnership for 25 years. Rob serves as an instrumental force in making housing more available and affordable in our community. Thanks for a great 25 years, Rob!
People in Congress and across the country grieve the passing of Barney Frank, who over three decades of service in Congress was an extraordinary champion for the civil rights and civil liberties of all people. May his memory be a blessing to his family and our entire nation.
I'm horrified and saddened by the mass shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego. My heart goes out to a grieving community.
Together we must oppose all forms of hate and fascist violence. No one should have to fear for their safety while worshiping in community.
It was an honor to welcome to Capitol Hill 8th District students who were nominated and received appointment offers to U.S. Service Academies. These exceptionally talented young people will go on to serve as military officers and leaders in different parts of the government and society.
Today, the House voted overwhelmingly to send a pro-democracy message to Trump ahead of his summit with Xi. The President must listen and do all he can to secure the immediate release of Apple Daily publisher Jimmy Lai and other prisoners of conscience languishing behind bars in China.
During Jewish American Heritage Month, we honor the contributions and service of Jewish Americans to our public life and culture.
Together we uplift our extraordinary history and recommit to root out toxic antisemitism, and all other forms of organized hate, in our society and on earth.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the great mothers in MD-08 and across America. We thank you for your love, tender care and wisdom.
This antisemitic graffiti at Greenwood Elementary School in Brookeville is profoundly disturbing. We’re all holding the students and Greenwood community close as authorities continue to investigate another intolerable act of antisemitic vandalism.
This week's MD-08 Local Hero is the talented Director of MoCo's Department of Transportation, Christopher Conklin.
Yesterday, MoCo unveiled the nation's largest transit depot electrical grid. Chris joined us to share what this impressive green project means for transit in our community.
