To the people of Maryland

My response to the Key Bridge collapse. John, Last week, a cargo ship collided with the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, resulting in its collapse. Within minutes, first responders were on the scene — and in the hours and days since the collapse, everyone has stepped up to serve. Mary…

Behind the scenes

John, Can you believe that there’s less than one month left in Maryland’s legislative session? As part of Team Wes, I can’t wait for us to finish strong. Working with Wes is an honor and a privilege — especially during session when we get to see him in action, achieving real progress for th…

Let’s play ball!

John, We’re less than a week out from opening day for the Orioles, and you already know that I am anxiously counting down the days. Spring is in the air and I can feel the energy ramping up. Baseball is here and I can’t wait to head over to Camden Yards to cheer on the O’s this season, and …

Black Excellence

John, Over the last two decades, racial inequality has cost the American economy $16 trillion. It’ll cost another $1 trillion in the next 10 years. We need to address this immediately, and it’ll take us working together to build an ownership society. I am working to address racial inequalit…

Our democratic values

John, With Trump as the official GOP nominee, and other extremists on the ballot this November, our democracy is at stake. We saw what happened in 2020 — Trump spewed lies about the election results, incited an insurrection, and showed no remorse. We know he’s going to spend the next 10 mon…

Public service is my life

John,  Public service is my life. From serving in the military to being Governor of Maryland — I have made it my life’s mission to serve the people. That’s why I have to address the ongoing threat to our country’s democracy in the form of Donald Trump.  This week, Trump effectively secured …

With Trump as the presumptive GOP nominee, Democratic governors are more important than ever

John,  When I ran for Governor in 2022, the Democratic Governors Association (DGA) was on my side. Our historic victory wouldn’t have been possible without their support. Now, as we head into another critical election year, the DGA is working around the clock to secure more Democratic victo…

Women’s History Month

John,  Maryland's rich history is filled with remarkable women who have blazed trails and shattered glass ceilings. From pioneers in science and technology to leaders in politics and the arts, Maryland women show us that anything is possible when you dream. As a daughter of immigrants, I ha…

False choices

The last thing I wanted at age thirteen was to be sent off to military school. John,  The last thing I wanted at age thirteen was to be sent off to military school. Little did I know that it would change the trajectory of my life and still shape who I am today over three decades later. As a …

A recap of February wins

John,  This February, our administration rolled up their sleeves and got straight to work!  We worked hard, Wes signed legislation, and we had some fun along the way. Here are some of the February highlights you may have missed:  To start the month, we honored the 60th Anniversary of the C…

We can’t let up the fight

John,  We need to send more public servants to Congress. If we send more folks who are focused on public service, we would have more legislators in Congress who would fight to expand our rights, and increase opportunity. Instead, we see politicians in Congress who play political games and w…

New economic opportunity in Maryland

John, Every Marylander deserves to do more than just survive. They deserve to thrive, not just themselves, but their families and neighborhoods as well.  To do that, that requires us to invest in Marylanders — and bring more opportunities to our state.  Wes is working to do just that. Last …

The first State Plan in a decade

John, When Wes Moore and Aruna Miller ran for office, they ran on the promise to bring change to Maryland — and the newly announced State Plan does just that.  Earlier this month, the Moore-Miller administration laid out its vision and strategies to accomplish ten priorities:  Ending child…

The Reproductive Freedom Referendum is on the ballot

John,  This election is critical. Come November, we’re going to see attempts from the far-right to roll back the clock and pass their extremist agenda to erode reproductive rights.  Republicans cheered on the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, and they are not stopping there. They will …

This Presidents’ Day

Commemorating American Presidents. John, this President’s Day, I’m reflecting on leadership. True leadership means choosing to unite, not divide. It means reminding us there is no limit to what we can accomplish as Americans when we come together. It means service — lifting everyone up, and…

Today I’m asking you to support the DGA

Help us flip governors' offices blue. John, If there is one thing that I know, it’s that now more than ever leadership has never been more important. Governors have never been more important. Democratic governors have never been more important. Right now, we are witnessing Republicans acros…

Happy Valentine’s Day! ❤️

John, I remember the moment Wes first told me he wanted to run to serve Maryland as our governor. I knew I had married a public servant, but at that moment, I saw the passion and love he holds for our state. The flame is still glowing one year into his governorship. Every day, I look up to …

Maryland is a one-of-a-kind state

I am proud to support the initiative to enshrine the right to an abortion in our state constitution

John, Immediately after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, many states turned their backs on women. Some states even had trigger laws in place that would immediately ban the right to an abortion as soon as the decision was announced.  This is wrong.  As a strong supporter of a woman’…

It's Black History Month

I am supporting the Reproductive Freedom Referendum

John, I have said it before, and I’ll say it again: I will always support reproductive freedom and access in Maryland.  In the wake of Roe v. Wade being overturned, I supported the effort to protect abortion rights in Maryland, and I will not rest until that right is enshrined in our consti…

Trump

John, While the Republican presidential primaries were playing out in Iowa and New Hampshire, Donald Trump spent most of that time in a courtroom. Over the next ten months, we’ll see Donald Trump fighting for his freedom and future. But if he wins re-election, we’re not going to see him fig…

On January 22, 1973

John, On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court issued its landmark decision in Roe v. Wade to protect a woman’s right to choose — enshrining reproductive rights for decades to come. Republicans have spent that time since then doing everything in their power to overturn Roe — and they were suc…

The NRA chief Wayne LaPierre is retiring

John, Wayne LaPierre just announced his retirement as the NRA’s leader. My thoughts on this announcement? Good riddance. Under LaPierre’s leadership, our country saw countless mass shootings and increased gun violence. As our communities suffered, LaPierre stood by and did nothing. Instead,…

Protecting our democratic values

January 10 is so close now

John, it’s Patrick. I’m sure you know, but from January 10 until April 8, the team will be prohibited from all fundraising. Any funds we receive after January 10, we will have to return. That means that we only have six more days before we shut down all of our fundraising links and pages, a…
