Having represented the United States Naval Academy for eight years, I've seen firsthand the impact that cultural, religious, academic, and identity-based student organizations have made on our midshipmen – preparing them to handle complex missions and lead diverse teams around the globe.

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

🇺🇸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.

🇺🇸 This year is the 250th anniversary of our great nation – that’s 250 years that We the People have had a say in this radical experiment of self-governance. That's why I want to hear how you are continuing to be part of this great democratic experiment.

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.

I took a moment after votes this week to call back Abigail, a sixth grader who reached out to my office about a school project! Especially during busy weeks in Congress, I’m so grateful to speak with young people who continue to lean in & participate in their government as our Founders envisioned.

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.

As your member of Congress, my job is not just to be your voice in Washington – it’s also about being on the ground, helping our neighbors on their hardest days. That’s why my team and I will be hosting our first #MD03 Constituent Resources Fair on Thursday, May 28, at 5:30 PM in Howard County.

I used to think I had to follow the "standard" path, but sometimes not getting what you want forces you to look elsewhere, to find the vibrant, chaotic, and beautiful patterns you didn’t know you were missing. This controller isn't just gear; it's a reminder that life is better in color.

Good morning! Monday motivation incoming - I want to ask you something that matters. Are you building a business or a LIFE? Because there’s a difference. A business without a life is just a job that pays better. But a business WITH a life? That’s freedom. This week — build both. At The Wealth

An Indian MP criticizes Narendra Modi and his government for visiting Israel after the Gaza Strip genocide, and pays tribute to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei as a martyr. English subtitles.

Aspiranti giudici federali rifiutano dati oggettivi, come la vittoria elettorale di Joe Biden alle presidenziali del 2020, in nome alla fedeltà al presidente Trump. Sempre meno “Land of the free”, sempre più dittatura Trumpiana. Non restiamo in silenzio.
