I wish I could be on the field tonight. There’s something about being at the baseball diamond that feels like home. Consider this my tryout for the Congressional Baseball Team next year. Go Dems! #CBG2026

Last week in the House Agriculture Committee, I urged USDA to protect the scientists and researchers on the frontlines of combating threats like the New World screwworm. As this pest continues to spread, the need for experienced researchers and strong agricultural science has

When workers vote to form a union, employers shouldn’t be able to stall negotiations for months—or even years—to deny them the benefits and fair treatment they deserve. That’s why I voted YES on the Faster Labor Contracts Act, which helps ensure workers can secure a first

As Maryland families are struggling with the rising costs of groceries, housing, health care, and childcare, the House GOP is jamming through legislation that addresses none of the affordability issues. Instead, they are giving $70 billion to ICE and CBP without any measures to

Trump cut funding for screwworm prevention 66 days into his presidency. Today we’re dealing with five screwworm cases. Actions have consequences.

The fight against ICE's proposed detention warehouse in Washington County is far from over. Despite recent court victories and ongoing efforts to stop this project, DHS has launched a new environmental review with public comments open through July 1. People are not packages.

Shocked to hear about the assault of a member of Frederick’s LGBTQ+ community - a personal friend - on Saturday night in downtown Frederick. My office understands that law enforcement has obtained a photo of the suspect, and is seeking accountability and justice. No one

I've made it my career to hold Big Tech accountable. In Congress, I'm fighting for legislation that puts responsible guardrails in the new AI economy and ensures companies are held accountable when consumers are harmed. This bill isn't the answer; we need stronger protections for
