America—not Joe Biden—faces a memory test today. Will we remember the sacrifices of prior generations who defeated fascism, Nazism, and Communism or will we sleep-walk into a new age of authoritarianism? Orbán, Putin and Trump applaud another pathetic legislative distraction.
After promoting foreign agents, convicted conmen and pornographic material to smear the president, the House GOP impeachment inquiry grinds to a halt. This madcap series ends where it started: unable to name a single high crime or misdemeanor to pin on President Biden.
When the Key Bridge collapsed, federal, state and local leaders moved quickly to launch the rescue, recovery and rebuilding process. We will restore the bridge and port, support our people and honor the Marylanders we lost. As @govwesmoore says, we are Maryland tough, Baltimore strong.
Delighted to welcome reproductive freedom champion and #MD08 native Becca O’Connor to the Capitol for tonight’s SOTU. As Director of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine’s Center for Policy and Leadership, Becca safeguards IVF access and defends reproductive health care for families across the country.
America must stand strong with Yulia Navalnaya and freedom fighters in Russia carrying on the work of Alexei Navalny. Democracy must defeat the forces of Trump/Putin.
Great fun to discuss law, the Constitution and Congress with young people in Coach Herbert’s law class at Whitman High School! Happy to meet this great teacher and soccer coach and his awesome students.

I had a great time meeting with the impressive Webelo Scouts of Cub Scout Pack 275. We talked about representative government, citizenship and what I “have done recently to help fourth graders”!
