On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, we honor the memory of the millions of Jews, Roma and others killed in the Holocaust by Nazis and fascists.

HIAS began when Jews coming to America were refugees from pogroms. Today it’s a Jewish charity helping to resettle other refugees fleeing political & religious violence. Our MD-08 Local Hero Mark Hetfield & his team at HIAS remember that all our families were once strangers.
Fresh from the mass pardons of cop-beating criminals, the GOP announces a new “investigation” of Jan. 6.
Hard to see what they can add to the 800-page report of the bipartisan Jan. 6 Cmte, but they can procure the star witness who has so far refused to testify: Donald Trump.
Grateful for the leadership of Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown who joined 22 other state attorneys general in challenging President Trump's unconstitutional birthright citizenship executive order.
Thanks to all our state and local leaders hanging tough for the Fourteenth Amendment.
I’m hearing from constituents whose jobs are at risk because they do agency outreach to minority communities.
Consider what this means for public health, national security, agriculture and justice.
The war on DEI has become a war on public service and government for all.
Most Americans support gun licensing laws, which reduce firearm homicides.
My legislation with @vanhollen.senate.gov would incentivize states to require a license to purchase a handgun so we can reduce the bloody gun-violence body count across America.
Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee rail about public safety and immigration—while their president pardons violent insurrectionists and kills bipartisan border legislation.
Democrats are working for public safety and immigration reform. Is the GOP?
15 years after Citizens United, which transformed every corporate treasury in America into a potential political slush fund, we now see the result: government of billionaires, by oligarchs, for plutocrats.
President Trump's first executive orders free violent insurrectionists who followed his orders, seek to destroy birthright citizenship, attack the professional civil service and spread chaos.
At once humbled and uplifted to be the keynote speaker at the Alpha Phi Alpha MLK Scholarship Breakfast. An amazing morning with Senators @chrisvanhollen.bsky.social and Alsobrooks and hundreds of MoCo activists. May Dr. King’s passion for democracy, human rights and solidarity inspire us.
As we prepare for MLK Day, it’s my pleasure to recognize MD-08’s Dr. Daryl Davis as our Local Hero. This blues piano sensation, accomplished author and determined opponent of—and, amazingly, friend to—Klansmen and white supremacists, has been transforming America, often one racist at a time.
My district team joined the MoCo Council to celebrate Muslim American Heritage Month. In MoCo, diversity is our strength, unity is our power, and community is our destiny.
We send solidarity to all the victims and survivors of this brutal war as we chart a path forward. It is imperative that all parties stay committed until the entire agreement is implemented and diplomacy replaces war.
A ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas is a major breakthrough in the campaign to free the beleaguered hostages, relieve terrible suffering in Gaza and pave the way for peace.
America can either be guided by the rule of law or the zig-zag confusion of disinformation and propaganda.
Democrats will follow the rule of law every time.
In the face of MAGA chaos and dysfunction, Democrats will work to advance the common good and justice for all.
These great Members have come from all over America to fight for the people. We’re getting to work in the 119th.
Our district team joined the MoCo Council to recognize Korean American Day and celebrate the enduring contributions of Korean Americans to our community.
We mourn the loss of MoCo Master Firefighter Christopher Higgins. He lost his life serving our people, his service to our community extending over two decades. May his memory be a blessing to his devoted family & friends & all his fellow first responders who keep watch over us.
The grift continues as online betting market Kalshi hires Donald Trump Jr.!
The legislation I introduced months ago with Senator Merkley and @salinas.house.gov would protect the integrity of our democracy by banning election betting altogether.
As new Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, I'll lead Judiciary Democrats in defending American freedom, democratic institutions and the rule of law.
It’ll be tough work, but we're ready for the fight, and I encourage you to follow along at @democrats-judiciary.house.gov.
