If you need immediate mental health support at any time of day, dial 988 to be connected to the National Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Counselors can also be reached by text message or online chat. You may also dial 911 or go to your nearest emergency room.
I’m also introducing the 9-8-8 Connect Act with Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick to help organizations connect individuals experiencing a behavioral or mental health crisis with follow-up services.
I’m introducing the STOP Suicide Act with Rep. Don Bacon to expand stabilization services for people with thoughts of suicide. We’re investing in evidence-based approaches to intervene when people need it most.
THREAD: Today we’re taking urgent action to help millions of Americans who struggle with their mental health: introducing two bipartisan bills to help people in crisis get both the immediate care and the follow-up care they need.
Two years ago today, the Francis Scott Key Bridge in the great city of Baltimore collapsed. We hold dear the memories of the six people who died in this disaster and continue rallying as a state to repair this essential artery for Maryland and the country.
Attention all you artistic high school students living in MD-08: the deadline to participate in our Congressional Art Competition is quickly approaching! Share your dazzling talents with the world, and be sure to apply by March 30 at:
Yes, we've referred Secretary Noem to the DOJ for perjury. Here's why:
Sending warm wishes to everyone in MD-08 and across America celebrating Eid al-Fitr. Hope you enjoy a meaningful and joyous holy feast. Eid Mubarak!
Americans are footing the bill for Trump’s war with Iran to the tune of tens of billions of taxpayer dollars already, yet Republicans in the House are doing nothing to lower prices or defend the war powers of Congress.
Where is constitutional lawyer Speaker Johnson?
President Trump called the affordability crisis "a hoax."
Most Americans, including millions of Republicans, know this isn't true. The costs of health care, groceries, rent and other essentials are skyrocketing while the President spends recklessly on an illegal war.
Mr. President, the only people making “a lot of money” from rising gas prices are wealthy oil executives and their investors. The people’s coffers are being drained by your spreading illegal war with Iran.
My colleague and friend Jared Moskowitz was the target of an assassination plot by an armed and dangerous fanatical antisemite who was just sentenced to 25 years in prison. The convergence of antisemitic and racist hate with gun violence is a continuing threat to American democracy.
Trump's illegal war with Iran is costing taxpayers $1 billion per day. What do we say to Americans who can’t afford health care, rent or groceries? It’s more important that the president wage undeclared wars of choice and aggression?
President Trump’s reckless and unconstitutional tariffs are making life more expensive. Now, we’re spending more than $1 billion each day on the war in Iran and watching unemployment rise. Americans are suffering and the president keeps making it worse.
MoCo neighbors, a tornado watch is now in effect for our area. Expect high winds, heavy rain and rapidly changing weather patterns. Batten down the hatches and stay safe!
This week, our MD-08 Local Hero is musician and small businessman extraordinaire Vincent Richardson, founder of Takoma Park's Richardson School of Music. Vincent spreads the joy of music to children, teens and adults throughout our community.
Attorney General Bondi thinks she can play hide-and-go-seek with the Epstein Files, but the law is clear and mandatory.
She must release the Files in their entirety so we can end this massive coverup and elite protection for predators.
Gun violence continues to be a devastating threat to life and bodily safety in America. Please join me in praying for the victims, the family of the deceased, and all the students, faculty and staff shaken by this attack at Old Dominion University. We must ACT in Congress.
