"We should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule that's given to Whites, because their immune system is better than ours." ---RFK Jr. So what vaccine schedule should I have received? His answer was dangerous. I will be voting no.

I met with Cameron Grove seniors, all of whom expressed anger at this callous Administration and its obsession with harming working people. I told them what I tell every Marylander - I’m in this fight for you.

Glad to meet with IBEW Local 26! Maryland’s economic success depends on robust federal support, protected labor standards, and expanded access to apprenticeship and training programs that create good-paying jobs. I will always be a champion for labor rights.

This Fibroid Awareness Month, we are getting to work. After generations of pain, those impacted by this disease shouldn't have to keep suffering in silence. I will keep fighting for our health.

I spent this morning with Calvert County educators hearing not only about their successes but also their real concerns about how federal funding losses will impact their students. Education is the great equalizer, and I’ll always stand up for our students and their teachers.

My office loved mentoring Annicha for Girls Inc.’s Take Our Daughters to Congress Day. Annicha is a Marylander from Washington County, and I was so glad to speak with her and hear her interests. Our future is looking good in the hands of Annicha and all the girls of Girls Inc.

5 years ago we lost an American hero, but the spirit of John Lewis will live on forever. I felt John with me as I marched across the Edmund Pettus Bridge this year, the same bridge he marched on Bloody Sunday - courageously marching for voting rights. We will keep marching.

States are working to improve aging infrastructure and roadway safety. As Ranking Member of the Transportation and Infrastructure Subcommittee, I’m focused on ensuring federal programs provide states—including Maryland—resources and flexibility to meet their needs.

I'm so honored to be teaming up with @Lupita_Nyongo to fight uterine fibroids. It's time to take action.

Republicans are at it again—trying to jam another bill through the Senate to make things worse for the American people.

Trump’s nominee for Assistant Secretary of Health and Human Services thinks women only have value if they "raise children" and "propagate the species." It’ll be a no from me.

Republicans want working class Americans to pay for billionaire tax breaks.

Proud to stand with @RepYvetteClarke, @RepShontelBrown, @Sen_Alsobrooks & advocates to introduce legislation to research, treat, and prevent uterine fibroids and cancer. There is an epidemic afflicting women — especially women of color — and we must do more to address it.

In observance of Fibroid Awareness Month, my colleagues and I hosted a Uterine Health Awareness press conference to advocate for the health of women nationwide. I am proud to stand with my sisters, @RepShontelBrown, @RepBonnie, and @Sen_Alsobrooks to reintroduce a myriad of…

Black women’s pain is often ignored in the doctor’s room. I refuse to let their pain go unheard in Congress. At a roundtable with Lupita Nyong’o, who has uterine fibroids, we discussed how we can increase access to treatment and provide resources to women with uterine fibroids.

I'm working with Lupita Nyong'o and my colleagues to pass the U-FIGHT Act and invest in fibroid research. 80% of women suffer from fibroids, and Black women are disproportionately impacted. But only 8% of research dollars goes to women's health care. That needs to change.

Safety and economic viability remain at the forefront of Team Maryland’s strategy. I joined Mayor Scott, Sen. Van Hollen, and Congressmen Mfume and Olszewski today to discuss how we will work to bring down crime, lower costs, and fight back against this callous president.

Trump’s witch hunt continues. To the Maryland patriots who’ve spent their lives working on behalf of this country — I will keep fighting for you. Firing people committed to American national interests, diplomacy, peacemaking, and human rights will have dire consequences.

It was an absolute honor and privilege to join tens of thousands of my Sorors of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. from across the nation for our 57th National Convention! In this current climate, our foundation of social action is so critical. We persist with fortitude.

I am praying for those in Baltimore impacted by this mass overdose incident. I want to thank state and local leaders as well as city health officials for their tireless work these past 24 hours to save lives. We must keep fighting to get these drugs out of our communities.

Trump claims to fight foreign influence in the U.S. supply chain while he's accepting a Qatari plane. Proud to join Senator Luján in calling out this President's brazen hypocrisy.
