Honored to meet with advocates from the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention during their advocacy day in Annapolis this week. I’m grateful for their partnership and for the courage they bring to this work—many sharing their own stories to push for change.

I was impressed at Saint Frances Academy’s AI Town Hall, which focused on the future of technology and opportunities.

It was an honor to join author Doris K Goodwin for a fireside conversation on leadership in turbulent times — and the lessons history offers as we work to build a more just, inclusive, and stigma-free Maryland.

I was honored to join leaders of many faiths at the Religious Freedom Breakfast. Together, we affirmed a truth: religious freedom & liberty of conscience are fundamental rights —the right of everyone to follow their faith or their conscience, without fear of persecution. tinyurl.com/Religious-Fr...

Ramadan Mubarak! As we welcome this sacred month, I send my best wishes to all Marylanders observing Ramadan. May this time of reflection, compassion, and community strengthen the bonds that unite us and inspire acts of kindness every day.

Happy Lunar New Year to all who are celebrating across Maryland and around the world! As we welcome the Year of the Horse, we celebrate the powerful energy it represents. These are values that carry us forward in our families, in our communities, and in our shared work to build a brighter future.

The Walk for Peace came carrying a message. In a time when our nation feels divided, the Venerable Monks’ presence represents something powerful: that compassion can travel across state lines, across beliefs, and across differences.

Rev. Jesse Jackson, a towering civil rights leader who marched with MLK, ran for president, and spent decades fighting for justice and equality, has died at 84. His voice lifted millions and his legacy will live on. Rest in power.

The clock is ticking — applications for the Maryland Public Service Scholars program close in TWO WEEKS. This paid 10–11 week internship is a chance to step inside state government and do meaningful work for Marylanders. publicservicescholars.umbc.edu

Tonight on CBS, @govwesmoore.bsky.social reminded the nation that real leadership isn’t about division. It’s about building coalitions and rising above the fray, especially during difficult times.

Happy Valentine’s Day, Maryland! Whether you’re spending it with a partner, family, friends, or your furry companions, I hope your day is filled with love and joy. ❤️

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. We are honored that those steps led Walk for Peace to the first peacetime capital of the United States.

I am profoundly honored that the extraordinary, venerable monks chose to include Annapolis as a sacred stop on their remarkable journey. To witness our community respond with such an outpouring of love, unity, and compassion fills my heart beyond measure. #WalkForPeace #PeaceWalk #buddhistmonks

State of the State is always special — seeing leaders from every corner of Maryland come together in one chamber, united by our responsibility to serve. But this year feels bigger as we mark the final State of the State address of our first term. 🧵

I stand with Governor Moore in unequivocally condemning this antisemitic act. Hate has no place in Maryland. We will remain vigilant in protecting our Jewish communities — and ensuring every Marylander feels safe where they live, work, and worship.

Exciting news! The Maryland Lieutenant Governor’s Office is honored to welcome the Walk for Peace Buddhist monks to Annapolis before their final journey back to Texas.

Bravo! 🙌🏽

Grateful to everyone who showed up in Annapolis for Overdose Prevention Advocacy Day. This work is personal — and it’s making a difference. Maryland has reduced overdose deaths to their lowest level in a decade because we chose compassion, data, and action.

Overdose Prevention Advocacy Day on Feb. 10 will bring together state and local leaders, policymakers, advocates, and community members to call for sustained action to reduce overdoses in Maryland. We hope you can join us! More Details: stopoverdose.maryland.gov/events

Big win for Frederick and Maryland. The Moore-Miller administration is helping advance the downtown hotel and conference center—creating jobs, boosting tourism, and strengthening Frederick as a destination for meetings and events. Strategic investment and growth for Marylanders.

Gun violence is not inevitable. It’s a choice — and Maryland is choosing differently. I was proud to stand with Moms Demand Action - MD advocates this week. 🧵

Donald Trump’s video using racist imagery of former President and First Lady is offensive, disgraceful and dangerous and has no place in our politics…EVER. As leaders, we must set a higher bar. In Maryland, we will not be dragged backwards by normalizing hate and disrespect.

Great to join and hear from members of the Montgomery County Women's Democratic Club during their Annapolis Advocacy Day—thank you for your activism and for advancing important issues. Your efforts truly make a difference.

Kicking off Human Trafficking Prevention Month in Maryland with Secretary Susan Lee, Attorney General Anthony Brown, survivor leaders, faith partners, advocates, & state & local officials. Maryland and the Moore–Miller Administration are committed to prevention and supporting survivors—every day.

Great to join Speaker Joseline Peña-Melnyk, Senator Angela Alsobrooks, and hundreds of women and men from across Maryland on a cold, snowy weekend to celebrate the Montgomery County Commission for Women’s 46th Annual Women’s Legislative Briefing.

The Polar Bear Plunge Maryland for Special Olympics Maryland: This year, I had the joy of plunging alongside our public safety teams: law enforcement, firefighters, EMS, the & National Guard, who remind us that public safety isn’t just about physical protection. It’s inclusion in action.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Maryland play a vital role across our state, supporting kids, strengthening communities, and opening doors to opportunity. Their impact is real, and it shows in the lives of young people every day.

Maryland continues to be a destination for emerging industries and expanding opportunities.

Looking forward to joining Speaker Joseline Peña-Melnyk, Senator Angela Alsobrooks, & the Montgomery County Commission for Women for a chance to celebrate the power of women leaders and work together to shape policies that will define our future. Registration here: tinyurl.com/WLB-2026

On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember and honor the six million Jewish lives lost and all victims of the Holocaust. We must continue to confront antisemitism, oppose bigotry, and stand against intolerance. #HolocaustRemembranceDay

Armored up for you, Maryland! Discipline. Respect. Community. And yes, more fierce. Thank you to the Korea Taekwondo Association of Maryland for the honorary black belt during our Korean American Day Proclamation celebration.

Some jobs are measured by how little disruption you feel. That doesn’t happen by chance. Thank you to our state & local public safety teams, emergency management, transportation, law enforcement, first responders, and the military—for working during the storm to keep us safe.

Democracy doesn’t protect itself. We do. I’m grateful that Speaker Joseline Peña-Melnyk and Governor Wes Moore understand what this moment demands and are ready to act because sitting on the sidelines isn’t an option. www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...

Thank you to the Maryland State Highway Administration, Maryland State Police, Maryland Department of Emergency Management, & all Maryland state employees, agencies, and first responders working together through the storm to keep Marylanders safe.

Another brutal killing and a grotesque abuse of power. This is not law enforcement. This is violence sanctioned by those in power.

A new chapter begins in New Jersey. Congratulations to Governor @mikiesherrill.bsky.social on her swearing-in, bringing fresh energy, steady leadership, and a clear focus on what’s next for the Garden State.

On #MLKDay, I had the honor of celebrating Dr. King’s legacy with UNCF, Bender JCC of Greater Washington , and Habitat for Humanity Metro Maryland, joining Maryland communities in a day rooted in service, community, and shared purpose.

On MLK Day, we honor Dr. King’s words and his call to action. The American dream endures—and so does the work to make it real for all.

Big news for Maryland! 🌟 A new Sphere venue — an immersive entertainment destination is planned for National Harbor. It’ll bring year-round experiences, jobs, and more economic activity to our state. Can’t wait to see what’s ahead! #MarylandMomentum www.wbaltv.com/article/sphe...

At the Maryland Economic Development Association conference, Maryland’s economic development community showed what’s possible: billions in private investment, thousands of jobs, and growth across the state, even in challenging times. This is how Maryland moves forward.
