As the proud daughter of a BLET Local 71 railworker, I know the long nights, weekends, and many sacrifices our railworkers make throughout their careers.

This is micromanagement at its worst. One of the most important roles of the Department of the Interior is to issue grants for communities across the country – communities represented by Democrats and Republicans alike.

In this week’s House Armed Services Committee hearing, I used my time to ensure we are conducting oversight of the Trump Administration’s Department of Defense and getting answers on mitigating civilian casualties everywhere, and especially in the midst of this irresponsible war in Iran.

Ensuring our military installations are prepared to withstand rising tides and floods is crucial to our military readiness and national security.

Good news: We voted down Congresswoman Mace’s amendment to let fears of alleged “woke bias” undermine years of standardized, merit-based admissions. If we care about fairness & maintaining rigorous admissions standards, we should rely on assessments that are thoroughly validated and widely accepted.

In honor of Police Week, I took a moment on the House Floor to recognize 20 incredible members of the Annapolis Police Department who received the Life Saving Award and the Meritorious Service Award for their heroism and outstanding service.

🇺🇸Stars and Stripes has served as a trusted, nonpartisan source of news for servicemembers and military families for over 165 years. Yet, Secretary Hegseth wants the Department of Defense to take more editorial control over the paper – putting partisan politics over a free press.

Big News: At the House Armed Services Committee hearing, I used my time to ensure Secretary Hegseth committed to finally releasing the $400 million for Ukraine that Congress bipartisanly authorized.

Happy May Day! 💐 Every year on May 1st, homes and businesses around Annapolis are decorated with floral arrangements to usher in the celebration of spring. This tradition started back in the 1950s and has grown citywide and is still going strong 70 years later.

I didn’t come to Congress to bicker with Cabinet secretaries - I came to get answers and deliver for my District.

We taught cells to build their own quantum sensors. For decades, physicists dreamed of putting quantum sensors inside living cells—but our best sensors need cold, isolated environments. Life is warm, messy, and chaotic. Totally incompatible. Until now. 🎧 Listen: www.buzzsprout.com/2405788/epis...

Rep Joe Neguse (D-CO) is so good at calling out MAGA Republicans kabuki theater of politics. The reason Trumps Little Johnson (R-LA) won’t bring the bipartisan bill to fund DHS, passed unanimously by the Senate is because the last guy that did got fired. Republicans are weak AF!!

3 days 72 hours and the Syrian rebels are back in Aleppo. The Syrian Arab army isn't just on the backfoot, its tumbling backward while trying to stay upward. While Assad's allies are otherwise preoccupied, Russian airstrikes aren't tipping the balance enough to stop the advance.
