Hey there!

It’s been a whirlwind ten days since I stood with my colleagues in the Senate chamber and swore an oath to faithfully serve the good people of Maryland and defend the Constitution of the United States. 

It was a truly surreal moment, and I cannot tell you how grateful I am that you helped me get here. Thank you. 

My first days in the Senate have been hectic in the best way. But when I get a rare quiet moment, I catch myself thinking back on the people and experiences that sent me down the path of public service nearly 30 years ago. 

(If you’re in a hurry, or you’ve heard my story before, you can make a quick contribution here. Your support will help us communicate with supporters in the months ahead!) 

I learned from my great-grandmother that if you see something wrong, you go farther and you do better.

When I wanted to improve my high school, I ran for office and dove into my roles as Treasurer and Student Body President. 

When I wanted to create a safer neighborhood for my daughter, I ran for State’s Attorney and helped drive down violent crime by 50%.

When I wanted to tackle complex issues in my community, I ran for County Executive and created a record number of jobs in our community.

And when I wanted to deliver progress and prosperity for all Marylanders, I ran for the U.S. Senate. And with your support, we won!

That brings me to January 3rd, 2025 – the day I took the oath of office to represent Maryland in the United States Senate.

The Senate is a long way from student government. But my outlook on public service hasn’t changed since I was elected class treasurer all those decades ago. 

When something breaks, leaders don’t point fingers or wait around for someone else to fix it — they grab a toolbox and get to work. 

Serving in the Senate is an enormous responsibility and an incredible privilege, and I’ll work every day to make this team proud. But public service is a team effort, and I’ll need your support to navigate new and complex challenges on Capitol Hill. 

If you’re able, will you invest $2 in progress and prosperity for Maryland? From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I can’t wait to see all we achieve over these next six years. 

With gratitude,

Angela Alsobrooks
