Greetings #TeamAlsobrooks,
We had another great week on the campaign trail, thank you to everyone who
showed up and showed out for us! Our growing support across the state is
truly inspiring. Having the privilege to speak with people across Maryland
and to envision a better future for our great state is truly remarkable!
Take a look below for some highlights from the campaign trail and beyond!
We had a huge crowd of 150 people in Howard County and discussed issues
ranging from gun safety to reproductive rights to improving schools for
our kids. Special thanks to Howard County Executive Calvin Ball for
gathering such an outstanding crowd!

In College Park, we had the pleasure of speaking with some UMD students
about issues they care about most. They shared their opinions and concerns
on diversity in Congress and how it reflects our country, the cost of
living and education, and the engagement of youth in politics. Students
are dialed in to what’s happening across the country and they’re ready to
vote in 2024!

What a glorious Sunday in Baltimore! Thank you to Bishop Dwayne Debnam for
the powerful sermon and for inviting us to Morning Star Baptist Church.
Always great to see our friend, Baltimore County Executive Johnny
Olszewski. Another thank you to Bishop Donté L. Hickman for welcoming us
to the Southern Baptist Church for their special Black History Month
service. What a compelling reminder of the community’s strength and
resilience that continues to propel in order to achieve true equity.

We met with local business owners at The Breakfast Club in Silver Spring,
where we had a fascinating discussion about the importance of investing in
small businesses throughout our state. Let’s fight to make sure
Marylanders in every zip code have the chance at economic prosperity!

Thank you to Travis Bell for the hospitality you shared at Black Acres
Roastery, a coffee shop in Baltimore that not only makes the most amazing
coffee and pastries (still thinking about that almond croissant), but also
continues to innovate the coffee industry with their own brand of coffee
beans. Small businesses, like Black Acres Roastery, are the backbone of
our local economies. By providing crucial access to capital, we can ensure
that entrepreneurs of all backgrounds thrive.

We had a wonderful conversation with the Silver Angels senior group in
East Baltimore about how to lower the costs of prescription drugs and how
we can make healthcare more accessible for seniors. It’s vital that we do
our part to support our elders, so they can enjoy a happy and healthy
retirement.

As you can see, we had a jam-packed week with crowded events. We’re proud
to be the only grassroots campaign in this election. We are powered by the
people, by the many. That’s how we win this race. In May and November.
