No surprise here. Way to go, Baltimore Orioles! #Birdland.
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration just announced that 2016 was the hottest year on record, surpassing the previous records set in 2015 and 2014. And what is the GOP Congress doing about it? The Senate today is holding a confirmation hearing for Donald J. Trump’s pick to lead the EPA – a climate-denying attorney general who has deep links to the oil and gas industry.
Last night, I joined Senator Ben Cardin, Maryland Delegation members, community leaders, county executives, leading health providers and nonprofit organizations to discuss the consequences of the Republican plan to #MakeAmericaSickAgain. Yesterday, the independent and nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimated that repealing the Affordable Care Act would take away health insurance from 32 million people and cause insurance premiums to double over a ten-year period.
This weekend, I joined Senator Chris Van Hollen and the Maryland Delegation at the National Day of Action Rally to save our health care and stop the Republican plan to #MakeAmericaSickAgain.
At the Anne Arundel County Annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Awards Dinner.
At Montgomery County's Annual MLK Birthday Tribute and Celebration. #MLKDay
Glad to be with Mayor Catherine Pugh at the MLK, Jr. Parade in Baltimore.
This MLK Day, I'm remembering how honored I was to stand with Rep. John Lewis on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in 2015 -- fifty years after the Selma March.
Today, I will vote against the Republican budget resolution that will take healthcare away from 30 million Americans and send national debt soaring to $23.7 trillion. #MakeAmericaSickAgain
To President-elect Donald J. Trump and your appointees: We’re going to make sure you are accountable to the American people.
85 YEARS AGO TODAY, Hattie Caraway became the first woman elected to the U.S. Senate, paving the way for iconic Senators like U.S. Senator Barbara A. Mikulski. Today, the Senate has more women serving in the chamber than ever before. But with women only representing 21 of 100 Senate seats, we still have more work to do.
Without the Affordable Care Act, thousands of Marylanders will lose coverage and have to pay more for health care. #ACAWorks
