I’ve spent my career standing up and fighting for my community. With what’s happening in Washington right now, I couldn’t sit on the sidelines. Signing my paperwork to run for Congress was a proud — and meaningful — moment. Let’s get to work. https://t.co/wO5tKYJYmM

We are witnessing a dangerous normalization of attacks on the institutions that hold our democracy together. I'm running for Congress to fight back. The stakes are too high for on-the-job training. I’m ready on Day One. Join us: https://t.co/wO5tKYJYmM

While current tallies may suggest a certain outcome, it is imperative to recognize that a substantial number of votes remain uncounted. We owe it to every voter to ensure that each ballot is meticulously accounted for before drawing any conclusions.

Proud to have the endorsement of Governor Martin O’Malley! @MartinOMalley I’ve always said that the only endorsements that matter to me are from people I’ve actually worked with—leaders who know what it takes to get things done. During his time as Governor and my time as County

The only endorsements I value are the ones from people I’ve actually worked with. Endorsements are sometimes used as political currency, and I don’t want to owe anybody anything, except the residents of Prince George’s county. Here is something that I’m really proud of: All of
