I am aware of the shooting inside a high school in Rockville earlier this afternoon. Our team is in contact with local authorities and we’re closely monitoring the situation. We will share updates with the community as more information becomes available.

📍Frederick, this site has been a promise waiting to become a place. But now we’re finally there. This new hotel and conference center is expected to create around 200 jobs and generate $1.5 billion in new private sector spending over the next 25 years.

I’m ready to work with the administration anywhere we can to deliver results. I promised the people of my state I will work with anybody, but will bow down to nobody — and I guess the President doesn’t like that.

Thanks to the hard work being done by our Office of Overdose Response and @mdhealthdept.bsky.social, 2025 was the 2nd year in a row Maryland has seen significant drops in overdose deaths – dropping by almost half since 2023. We remain committed to reducing overdoses and keeping Marylanders safe.

Please be safe this weekend. Starting tonight, Maryland will experience dangerously cold temperatures, with extreme wind chills and gusts through Sunday. Wind, snow, and ice may all impact your travel plans, so please drive carefully, limit your time outdoors, and check on vulnerable neighbors.

The DMV is one of the most competitive regions in our country – and I’m proud to be working alongside Governor Spanberger and Mayor Bowser to keep that truth alive as we work together to invest in our shared prosperity.

I have very serious concerns about the Department of Homeland Security’s plans to build an ICE detention center in Washington County.

I stand with County Executive Calvin Ball as he signs emergency legislation today prohibiting privately owned buildings from being used as ICE detention centers. Howard County chose dignity, accountability, and its people. Tune into our event now: bit.ly/4a2VtHw

I applaud Senator Ellis’s commitment to his constituents and American democracy. Marylanders have weighed in. The House has spoken. It’s up to the Maryland Senate to hold the vote.

Good luck tonight, Terps! 🏀

Love the flag. Ain’t changing it. Back to work, everyone

Here in Maryland, we take our instructions from the people who elect us. It’s now time for the Maryland Senate to do the same and vote.

Mayor Jeffrey Slavin has been a true leader for the people of Somerset for nearly two decades. From modernizing government functions to managing town improvements, he’s shown what it means to tackle big challenges and lead with conviction. Congrats and enjoy your retirement, Jeffrey!

Thank you to all of our roadway workers and first responders who have been working tirelessly to clear roadways and keep Marylanders safe after last weekend’s historic snowstorm.

My statement on the Maryland House of Delegates overwhelmingly voting to pass new congressional maps: https://go.md.gov/Statement

Maryland has had the fastest drop in violent crime anywhere in the country over the last two years – and it’s because we’re working together – with local elected officials, local law enforcement, and community groups.

The Trump-Vance administration has already come for Marylanders. But I will never flinch when it comes to defending my state.

Black Marylanders have led the fight for justice throughout our nation’s history, and their courage and achievements drive our administration’s work today — tackling peoples’ challenges with solutions and building pathways to work, wages, and wealth in every corner of our state.

We’re watching an organization that’s now the largest military law enforcement force in the country deploy people to our neighborhoods who are untrained, unqualified, and unaccountable. There's a reason why Democratic & Republican governors are saying that we can’t allow this to continue to happen.

We’ve had some big wins over the last few months, from AstraZeneca making the largest single private investment in state history to bringing Samsung Biologics to Maryland for its first U.S. manufacturing site.

Maryland continues to show that our partnerships with local communities are invaluable in our efforts to reduce overdoses across the state. But the job’s not done, and we’re going to work together to continue helping those seeking recovery.

We’ve made historic investments in our local law enforcement while also targeting the root causes of crime, including fighting to end child poverty in our state.

As cases of respiratory illnesses surge across Maryland, we’re stepping up to ensure health care professionals have the resources they need.

The new maps created by the Governor’s Redistricting Advisory Committee not only make our districts more competitive, but also make sure that Marylanders’ voices are actually heard. https://youtube.com/shorts/k9Gbon4qUrQ?feature=share

We’ve introduced legislation to: 🔒 Secure financing for local clean energy projects, ⚡ Modernize the electric grid, and 🔋 Provide additional direct energy bill rebates to Maryland families.

Tech should work FOR working families, not be used to exploit them. https://youtube.com/shorts/8ARMWGebo4o?feature=share

Today marks 81 years since Auschwitz was liberated. Tonight, the First Lady and I lit Government House in remembrance of those who had their lives and loved ones persecuted and murdered during the Holocaust.

I testified in support of House Bill 488, which puts forth a new congressional map as recommended by the bipartisan Redistricting Advisory Commission.

Our administration is stepping up to deliver relief by focusing on driving down the cost of utility bills and investing in local projects that make energy more reliable and affordable.

Fentanyl overdose deaths have significantly dropped in the past years, but we must continue to work with federal, state, and local officials to keep Marylanders safe. I commend the hard work being done by Mayor Scott, State’s Attorney Bates, and local law enforcement to tackle this head-on.

Know your roads, Maryland! https://go.md.gov/MDOTKnowYourRoads

Enjoy the day indoors, Maryland! Please stay off the roads if you can and enjoy this time with friends, family, or any furry friends you're snowed in with. ☃️🐾

The team at our Emergency Operations Center has been working around the clock throughout this winter storm. I appreciate them sacrificing the comforts of their own home to help keep Marylanders safe and informed.

𝗪𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 1️⃣ Temperatures are dropping and freezing rain is starting to come down, so stay vigilant and stay warm! 2️⃣ I’ve ordered that all state offices will be closed tomorrow, January 26th Monday. 3️⃣ To get more updates, go to MDReady.maryland.gov 4️⃣ Please stay off the roads!

All across the state, we have teams working to help keep Marylanders safe and protected. Please do your part by staying off the roads and checking to make sure your neighbors are safe.

I’ve reached out to both Gov. Walz and Sen. Klobuchar following the latest shooting involving federal agents in Minnesota. Marylanders have witnessed this cruelty in our own communities – during a school drop-off in Salisbury and in Glen Burnie on Christmas Eve. These are not isolated incidents.

In all seriousness, this storm can be dangerous. Prepare early, stay off the roads if you can, and look out for each other. Sign up for alerts and updates at go.md.gov/MDReady

What I ask now is that people please stay off the roads.

This winter storm has the potential to be dangerous. Please use common sense and show common courtesy. Unless you have a serious emergency, plan to stay home starting tomorrow. Adjust your plans for Sunday and Monday now. Let the professionals do their jobs, so we can all stay safe.

Ahead of the winter storm, I’ve signed an executive order declaring a State of Emergency. I've also requested that Pres. Trump authorize a Federal Emergency Declaration so that the federal govt can provide resources including personnel, equipment like generators, and funds for protective measures.

🔴 Please join us live for updates on the state’s coordinated preparations for this weekend’s winter storm.

When it comes to vaccines, there should be no confusion or politics involved. That’s why we’re introducing the Vax Act – so Maryland can issue its own health recommendations and guarantee recommended vaccines are fully covered by insurance. https://youtube.com/shorts/8ao8_d_iE1U

Yesterday, I declared a State of Preparedness for Maryland and have directed @mdmema.bsky.social to coordinate preparation ahead of the expected winter storm this weekend. Our top priority is keeping people safe. Please stay alert, follow guidance, use common sense, and make sure you’re prepared.

Protecting our people. Lowering costs for Marylanders. Increasing Maryland’s economic competitiveness. These pillars are what our proposed budget focuses on – what Marylanders need most.

Being fiscally responsible doesn't mean we stop investing in what matters to Marylanders. But it does mean being more targeted and data-driven in how we invest.

These maps represent the will of the people. The people of our legislature should now vote on them. https://youtube.com/shorts/m1QXooE8uH0
