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.
