NEW FROM POLITICO: "94 percent support for Medicare for All among Democrats — up from 90 percent support the same survey documented last year — 60 percent support among independents, 55 percent support in conservative-leaning congressional battleground districts, and 19 percent support among voters who backed Trump in 2024." Medicare for All has the momentum. It's our job to run with it to finally deliver health care as a human right when we take back power in November. politico.com/newsletters/pol…

Mr. President: I have a better idea. Instead of spending over a trillion dollars on never-ending wars abroad while plunging the working class into poverty here at home, let’s invest in universal childcare, Medicare for All and affordable housing. America first!
Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

680,000 Marylanders rely on SNAP to put food on the table, including: 120,000 older adults, 270,000 children and, 120,000 Marylanders with disabilities. The federal government is leaving them in limbo. But in Maryland, we protect our people.

I am urging Marylanders to prepare for potential flash flooding and severe storms this afternoon. The greatest risk for impacts are along the I-95 corridor and upper Eastern Shore, but all counties, except Garrett and Allegany counties, are currently under a flood watch. Our top priority is the safety of Marylanders. Please do your part by monitoring weather forecasts in your area and look out for your friends and family. For up-to-date weather warnings, follow @MDMEMA across all platforms.

Jewish presidential vote by year in the U.S. 2012: 🔵 69-30 🔴 2016: 🔵 71-24 🔴 2020: 🔵 68-30 🔴 2024: 🔵 66-32 🔴 So 🔵D+39 in 2012 to 🔵D+34 over 12 years. So at this pace, a majority of Jews will support Republican presidential candidates in…checks math…the year 2096.

Today the Senate passed the biggest betrayal of working people in modern history. It rips health care from 17 million, slashes food aid, and showers billionaires with tax breaks. Next stop: the House. Progressives will be voting HELL NO.
BREAKING: Senate passes Trump's megabill after Vice President JD Vance casts the tie-breaking vote.

Today on Juneteenth, we acknowledge the moment when all African Americans were finally notified of their freedom. Still, that “freedom” is a loose term. Ending chattel slavery and the transatlantic slave trade was a moment of liberation, but that alone doesn’t define freedom. Freedom is the ability to own more than you owe. To pass something off to your children besides debt. To feel safe in your community and in your own skin. Liberation is good. But we must demand freedom.

Here are the facts: The Trump administration wrongfully deported a father, sheet metal apprentice, and Maryland resident to El Salvador. They admitted to this “administrative error” and the Supreme Court unanimously demanded they fix it.

Today the Supreme Court made the only right choice: standing up for this Maryland father, the rule of law, and due process in our nation. The Trump Administration should NEVER HAVE ABDUCTED Kilmar. It was SHAMEFUL. Now they must bring him home IMMEDIATELY.
BREAKING: A 9-0 Supreme Court UPHOLDS a court order requiring the Trump administration to bring a Maryland man, Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, back to the U.S. after mistakenly deporting him to El Salvador. Deadline TBD. #SCOTUS documentcloud.org/documents/…

Not surprisingly, Trump’s overall tax and tariff proposals would make the very rich much richer and working families poorer. If you earn less than $360,000 a year, your taxes are going to go way up. If you’re in the top 1%? Don’t worry. You’ll save big.

A STRONG January jobs report here in Maryland under @GovWesMoore—adding 4,900 jobs, 2,600 in the private sector. Unemployment sitting at 3.0%—one of the lowest rates in the nation. Between January 2023 and 2025 Maryland has ADDED 88,300 total jobs.

We've had productive conversations with the House and the Senate on how to strike a final budget that protects Marylanders, and we've taken two items off the table. Our final budget: 1) Will NOT include a broad business-to-business tax. 2) Will NOT include a soda tax.

You did a cutesy thumbs down on a $15 minimum wage. This is part of the reason Trump is in power. Log off.
Once again, pointing out that you repeatedly demanded that the Senate eliminate the very tool you’re now demanding the Senate utilize to stop Trump. Doesn’t take a rocket science to see the blatant hypocrisy here.

Maryland is already a national leader in making prescription drugs more affordable. We're continuing our work to ensure that no Marylander has to choose between life-saving medicine and their basic needs.
