Friends – one accusation changed the trajectory of my family's
life forever.

My great-grandfather courageously stood up for someone who was wrongfully
accused of a crime. It was 1959 in South Carolina, and out of revenge, my
great-grandfather was murdered.

While dealing with the loss of my great-grandfather, my entire family soon
came under threat, and so my great-grandmother packed the car and fled to
Maryland to find a new home.

My great-grandmother had every reason to be bitter and feel hopeless. But
I always remember her telling me this story and sharing with me: “If you
don’t like something, you go farther and you do better.”

I’ve spent my life trying to live up to my great-grandmother’s words. I
became a State’s Attorney to seek justice for Maryland families, and I’ve
been proudly serving as a county executive to improve the lives of my
neighbors.

Only in America could three generations separate a woman forced to flee
the South, to now me running to become the first Black senator for the
great state of Maryland. People like me, stories like mine, don’t often
make it to the United States Senate — but they should. [ [link removed] ]So if you’re

I’m running for Senate to ensure that our families feel safe, that our
children have a brighter future ahead, and that our fundamental freedoms
are protected.

But Mitch McConnell personally recruited Larry Hogan (R) to defeat me
because he thought it was his best shot at flipping the Senate red.
They’ve had far-right Super PACs pouring millions into this race to try
and buy this election.

We are building a people-powered movement to bring a better future to
Maryland, and I hope that you will join us today.

Polling shows this race is a pure toss-up with political experts reporting
that this is the battleground where control of the Senate will be
determined.

[ [link removed] ]I know that we can win this race and make history together, but I need
you with me to do it. Please, whatever you can spare today will go a long
way towards helping me win and ensuring that Democrats hold the Senate
majority.
