I have good news and bad news -- I’ll start with the good news:
- Yesterday, I joined the House in passing a bill that would make Washington, D.C. our country’s 51st state, granting long overdue equal representation to the over 712,000 Americans who live in D.C. The bill is now in the Senate.
- We’re continuing to see the positive impact of the American Rescue Plan across Maryland. It’s bolstering COVID-19 testing and vaccines, providing critical resources for small businesses, keeping families in their homes, preventing food insecurity, and giving schools the resources to safely reopen.
Our Democratic House Majority is making great strides and advancing meaningful progress. We can’t afford to lose any ground. The end-of-month deadline is one week from today -- if you can, will you chip in a few dollars before you log off for the weekend?

But here’s the bad news:
- National Republicans raised a record-breaking $17 MILLION last month, bringing in over $44 million during the first quarter of the year.
- GOP extremists who supported challenges to President Biden’s legitimate electoral victory last year saw the biggest boost to their fundraising numbers. Some even raised upwards of $3 million following the January 6th insurrection at the Capitol.
Washington Republicans are fighting tooth and nail -- and fundraising hand over fist -- in order to take back the House Majority and undo the progress we’re building in Washington.
But it isn’t a done deal. We can stop them -- one small-dollar contribution at a time. If you can, please chip in before the end-of-month deadline.
Your friend,
