Today, I joined Indivisible members from MoCo and across our region to stand up for democracy, federal workers and the rule of law. We are beating Musk and Trump every day in court, and we will keep going.
Anyone who cares about the shocking resurgence of antisemitism and its relationship to the attack on democracy all over the world must read this powerful analysis of the Trump-Vance attempt to humiliate President Zelensky in the Oval Office. Tim Snyder’s analysis is devastating.
Today, tons of Marylanders rallied at the Lincoln Memorial with Dr. Francis Collins, Bill Nye the Science Guy and thousands of others to tell MAGA to let our expert civil servant scientists get back to work, pursuing facts and conducting critical research for the common good.
My Joint Address guest Dr. Lauren McGee is a NIH cancer biologist who was summarily fired by a DOGE worker she never met during Elon Musk's Valentine's Day assault on the federal workforce.
This MD-08 Local Hero was doing pathbreaking research to treat pediatric cancer.
If Republican members can get jobs restored for their constituents, I want my constituents' jobs restored now.
Federal workers at HHS conduct critical medical research for America. I led my colleagues in demanding Sec. Kennedy immediately reinstate illegally purged civil servants in his agency.
Ahead of the 60th anniversary of Bloody Sunday, I'm joining
Rep. Terri Sewell to reintroduce the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to protect the right of all Americans to vote without tricks & laws of suppression.
Let's summon the moral purpose of the great Congressman Lewis.
Mourning the passing of Congressman Sylvester Turner, my colleague who dedicated himself to public service and the people of his beloved Houston.
While he was new to Congress, his kindness and leadership leave an enduring mark on this institution. May his memory be a blessing.
Hundreds of fired civil servants at NOAA provided seafood safety, hurricane and snowstorm forecasts, and critical climate science.
This week we gathered at their HQ to tell Trump and Elon Musk: we believe in facts, science and truth. Hands off NOAA!
The felon president who pardoned 1500 violent J6 Capitol rioters he incited that went on to viciously assault American police officers just called for “law and order.”
President Trump says rates of pediatric cancer are way up, but his incompetent fanatics on DOGE fired my guest tonight, Dr. Lauren McGee, a remarkable pediatric cancer researcher who was sacked from NIH as part of Musk’s Valentine’s Day onslaught.
Illegally and arbitrarily fired by Elon Musk, my constituent Dr. Lauren McGee is standing strong with me for all federal employees at the Joint Address in the Capitol tonight.
Lauren's pediatric cancer research at the NIH saves lives, but DOGE throws everything into chaos.
Dozens of Members of the Ukraine Caucus are here to stand strong for democracy, freedom and international law against Trump, Putin and Musk.
I imagine they'll be translating President Trump's speech into Russian which shouldn't be hard because that was the language it was drafted in.
A Moscow spokesperson states the obvious: the Trump-Vance agenda "largely aligns" with the Kremlin.
As Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Republicans in Congress work to slash critical Medicaid funding, I convened a panel of health care practitioners and Medicaid recipients who explain why this program is a life-or-death necessity for millions—and critical to Maryland.
They just turned the Oval Office into the Evil Office.
Elon Musk Fact-Checked by his own AI platform Grok! What an embarrassment this “genius” is.
For my full statement and questions posed to Mr. Musk, see below.
Federal workers choose public service to serve our people, but the Trump administration wants to traumatize them.
We need cancer researchers, forest service firefighters, nuclear safety experts, VA nurses and food safety inspectors.
We don’t need Elon Musk, whatever his job is.
Even the people working at DOGE say it is a lawless nightmare for America. In fact, they know it better than anyone.
Thanks to these true public servants who won’t stand for such a dangerous betrayal of the American people.
