Maryland is ground zero for America’s next tech leap. Proud to host @NVIDIA for a tour of @UofMaryland, @UMBC, @johnshopkins & @MorganStateU to showcase the talent, research, and innovation shaping the future. Thanks @MDmhec @MDbiz @MD_labor !

On Memorial Day, my thoughts turn to the families who have lost loved ones in service to our country. We remember each brave soul who sacrificed so that we may live in freedom. As a Marine vet, I honor the memories of those lost by serving my community with purpose and gratitude.

Here’s ⁦@RepKweisiMfume⁩ on CR provision mandating that the federal government pay 100% of the cost for rebuilding the Francis Scott Key Bridge. Insurance payments will offset some of estimated $2 billion price tag

When our AG's office sued Trump for his MAGA policies, Larry Hogan tried to stop us. Repeatedly. If you think Hogan will stand up to Trump now, I've got a gold watch to sell you.
However much I like and respect @GovLarryHogan, this argument doesn’t fly. If voters are concerned that a GOP majority would be inclined to do “crazy things,” why should they vote for anyone whose election could help create such a majority?

Wow, this isn't just an endorsement of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz by Bruce Springsteen, it's a sermon, a song, and a love letter to America!

ICYMI: @baltimoresun captured me trying to bite my way through the @RocketLab ribbon last week when the big scissors proved more ceremonial than functional. We need more pragmatic problem solving like this in Congress!

I remember when NYC was covered with posters of people missing after 9/11. Everybody knew they would never be found. Tearing down those posters would have been seen as an unimaginable act of cruelty. What’s the difference be between then and now?

ICYMI: Last week I spoke with chef-owner Robbie Tutlewski of Little Donna's in Upper Fells Point, which @nytimes named one of the best 50 U.S. restaurants. Tutlewski talked about his 4 1/2 foot tall Yugoslavian grandmother "Little Donna," one of his earliest cooking partners.
This week, @nytimes named Little Donna’s in Upper Fells Point one of the nation’s 50 best restaurants. The Baltimore restaurant is named after chef-owner Robbie Tutlewski's grandmother "Little Donna," whom he regularly cooked with growing up. baltimorefishbowl.com/storie…

Make sure to buy 7 beers and 4 hotdogs during this rain delay so the small market Orioles can keep that young core intact

I always wanted to create the “Angel Reese scholarship” at St. Frances. I wanted to pay one of the girls on the team’s scholarship for the whole year every year. I wanted to help the little catholic school across the street from a jail in Baltimore that made me ME & I DID THAT🥺

Fun fact to know and tell (yeah, I did the math). The portrait of frmr. Gov. Martin O'Malley is 30% smaller than those of Govs. Hogan or Ehrlich & 55% smaller than Glendening or Schaefer. O'Malley's has been removed to be enlarged by the artist. (photo: the governor's office)

We could build a fantastic library there for way less. Howard Hughes should be paying for most of garage also since their properties there will vastly benefit. It's not all or nothing here regarding fiscal concerns.
