Not only is this submarine named for one of the greatest cities in the world, but the boat’s hull number is 812 -- just one away from 1812. Quite fitting for a vessel named "Baltimore." Maryland and the @USNavy are inextricably linked.

Bans and criminalization will not stop abortion; they only make it more dangerous. I'm proud to cosponsor a resolution that emphasizes every patient’s basic right to emergency health care. Care that Amber Thurman and Candi Miller should have received.

Trump trying to divert attention from his abysmal record and the disastrous things he wants to do if he was elected again is nothing new. But preemptively blaming Jewish Americans for his impending loss is antisemitism at its core and must be called out.

This week, I voted for additional funding for our veterans and the VA. Thanks to the PACT Act, veterans’ enrollment at the VA is way up as we get our veterans the care they earned in service to our nation.   Glad we got this done for the 360,000 veterans that call Maryland home.

Project 2025 envisions federal employees who will be politically loyal to an individual and a cult of personality—rather than loyal to the Constitution and the letter of the law. As the Chair of @SFRCdems , I must tell you—this is the kind of thing authoritarian governments do.

During an Oversight and Accountability Committee markup this week, it was affirmed by Chairman Comer that legislation I introduced with Senators Cardin and Van Hollen – as well as #Maryland Representatives Hoyer, Ruppersberger, Sarbanes, Raskin, Trone, and Ivey – to rename a

Every day we're reminded of the consequences that come with too many guns and not enough focus on safety. I'm thankful these children were okay, but they shouldn't have to live in fear. We need bipartisan support to pass common sense gun safety laws.

This is going to provide tremendous relief for Americans, particularly for first-time home buyers. The Biden-Harris administration continues to make strides in bringing down inflation & strengthening our economy. This step by the federal reserve is proof.

Reuniting with @vkaramurza has been one of the blessings of my career. It's a moment I will never forget. Vladimir's return restores our nation’s optimism for what we can achieve when we never give up on fighting for what’s right.

“I never thought I would see him again alive,” @SenatorCardin told me US officials, activists celebrate Vladimir Kara-Murza's release from Russian jail and urge more work to save lives of imprisoned political dissidents in Russia and around the world.

Supporting families by protecting IVF should not be a partisan issue. It’s a family issue. Thank you, Charlie Kerr for sharing your story. There are so many Maryland families like yours.

Greenbury Point now has a contract to cover its firing range, allowing the public to share the joys of its beautiful land and reduce the environmental impacts of the property. Thank you, @SECNAV , for personally working with me to expedite this project.

Maryland has an incredible landscape, so take some time during #NationalWildernessMonth to get out there and safely explore "America in Miniature." Let's continue to work together to ensure our environment is preserved for future generations to enjoy.

Throughout my time in Congress, I have worked to dismantle barriers to women’s health. I will once again be voting "yes," on the Right to IVF vote this week. Women's bodies are under attack. Time to do what's right.

Electric vehicles are the future, and Maryland is not one to be left behind. #TeamMaryland recently secured $33 million for 29 new EV charger installation sites in urban and rural communities across our state.
