Visited The Community School in Remington to engage with bright young minds who asked important questions about the current state of our nation. I shared my story with them to show that no matter where you start, your voice matters and you can make a difference.

(1/2) Congratulations to Mayor Brandon Scott, @baltimorepolice.bsky.social Commissioner Richard Worley, and Baltimore City State's Attorney Ivan Bates on this significant achievement.

(1/2) Attention #WestBaltimore: 🛒🍎 a new supermarket, Streets Market, is coming soon! This project will redevelop a vacant building into a vibrant source of healthy food – and help eliminate a food desert that has disrupted our communities for far too long.

(1/4) Today, I voted against Oversight Republicans’ disastrous budget reconciliation bill that will directly assault federal employees’ take-home pay, pensions, and job protections.

AMENDMENT: Trump and Musk are trying to purge the federal government of people who disagree with them. @repkweisimfume.bsky.social is fighting to maintain a nonpartisan civil service free from political influence, just as we've had for over a century.

(1/3) Marked a major milestone in #WestBaltimore as we unveiled the new and improved St. Francis Neighborhood Center.

(1/3) Congressman Gerry Connolly has been an esteemed leader and formidable voice on the Oversight Committee for 16 years thus far before he was ever elected to become its Ranking Member. 📸Photo credits: Jacquelyn Martin, @apnews.com

(1/2) #ICYMI I joined community leaders to celebrate the grand opening of The Mill on North Food Hall—a vibrant hub in #WestBaltimore made possible by the collaboration of local, state, and federal government partners.

(1/3) Earlier this week, I returned to Henderson-Hopkins to break ground on East Baltimore Development, Inc.'s Phase 2B project in #EastBaltimore.

Pope Francis will be remembered as a kind and compassionate leader beloved for his commitment to social justice. May he rest in peace. #PopeFrancis #Catholics #Vatican abcnews.go.com/Internationa...

#HappyEaster! Wishing all who observe in Maryland’s 7th Congressional District – and across the globe – peace, love, and serenity as you celebrate this sacred day in Christianity. #EasterSunday #Easter #Easter2025 #EasterBlessings

(1/2) 🏥1.1 million Marylanders rely on #Medicaid to receive health coverage. Republicans want to impose historic cuts✂️ to this program and take health care away from kids, parents, people with disabilities, and seniors.

(1/2) Trump and Musk’s devastation of the Social Security workforce & closing of field offices will mean delay, disruption, & denial of benefits for ≈70 million Americans.

(1/4) #OTD, ten years ago, I got an urgent call regarding a police incident at the Gilmore Homes housing project in west #Baltimore. Many saw it as an excessive force arrest during a scuffle involving a young man and police.

✡️Chag Pesach Sameach to our Jewish friends and neighbors celebrating #Passover tomorrow at sundown. May all who observe the #Passover miracle gather with their loved ones at the Seder table and rejoice in this “Festival of Freedom.”

📫Stood in solidarity with the National Association of Postal Supervisors to send a message to Trump & Musk: Americans’ mail is not for sale! #NAPS #AFLCIO #AFGE #NTEU #APWU #NRLCA #PostalProud #SaveThePostOffice #MailForAll

(1/2) Within hours of announcing his retirement, Baltimore Elections Director Armstead Jones died at the age of 71. He was an old school friend and real soldier who loved his job and cherished his City. Rest in peace AJ, with God's grace and power.

(1/2) Across the country, Americans from different races, backgrounds, and creeds are unifying to object to the hostile takeover of Trump and Musk.

🧵 1/ Your loved ones shouldn't have to live in fear that their #Medicaid could disappear by the careless actions of an unelected billionaire, his POTUS (Puppet of the U.S.), and the MAGA budget scheme that seeks to cut ≈$1 trillion from Medicaid. strengthenhealthcare.org/our-prioriti...

THREAD🧵: In Trump’s America, inflation is rising, Americans’ health care and retirement security are under siege, and a purge of the federal workforce and dismantling of our government is already underway.

🎨 (1/2) Calling all high school artists in Maryland’s 7th Congressional District! Applications for this year’s Congressional Art Competition are now OPEN.

Moments ago, I walked with Congressional Black Caucus Chair Yvette Clarke to the Senate floor where I am standing in support of Senator Cory Booker as he boldly and valiantly engages in a historic filibuster to call attention to the fact that Trump and Musk are destroying democracy as we know it.

(1/2) 📫I was fired up joining the National Association of Letter Carriers Local 176 – Oriole Branch in a rally at the Baltimore Main Post Office to oppose privatization of the postal service.
