My office is currently accepting submissions for this year's Congressional Art Competition. High school students residing in Maryland's 7th congressional district are encouraged to submit their pieces of art for a chance to have your work displayed in the United States Capitol!

It's a damn shame that Trump's State Department Under Secretary tried every way he could to not answer questions about serious AI threats to the Homeland and whether or not the US has a responsibility to stand up and speak out against human rights abuses and violations of international law.

This week at Mervo H.S. I proudly presented a $1 million grant to B-360, a successful nonprofit that turns the City's dirt bike culture into career opportunities for at risk teenagers. www.wmar2news.com/news/region/... #Baltimore #Dirtbike #Mervo

Happy 84th birthday, Professor Larry S. Gibson! Tiffany and I had the honor of stopping by yesterday to wish our dear friend a special happy birthday. 🥳🎂🎈🎁

It was wonderful to have been invited by sister Kin “Termite” Brown-Lane to come and share the lunch hour with so many of the wonderful people of Cherry Hill. #Baltimore #cherryhill

I was honored to attend the Homegoing Celebration for my friend and big brother, Rev. Jesse Jackson, at the House of Hope in Chicago. Rest in God's peace until we meet again. #JesseJackson #RIP #leader #servant #trailblazer #dignity #fearless #justice #compassion #civilrights

Congress has both a constitutional responsibility and a moral obligation to uphold its war powers authority. We must all speak out against these actions as this President endangers our homeland, places our soldiers at risk, and kills innocent civilians abroad. See my full statement below.

Yesterday, as a senior member of the House Oversight Committee, I voted to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi for testimony on the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. www.msn.com/en-us/news/p...

Maryland Rep. Kweisi Mfume demands clarity on ‘imminent threat’ behind strike. www.wbal.com/rep-kweisi-m...

The President’s repeated, illegal and deadly actions continue to endanger our homeland. See my full statement below on the strikes against Iran.

Just recently, a reception was held honoring the community of Turner Station and its rich history. The event was held and hosted at the Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC) where scores of people turned out and celebrated the unique legacy of Turner Station.

ICYMI: I joined PoliticsNation with Al Sharpton to talk about why I will not be attending the State of the Union tonight.

For the 2nd year in a row, I will not be attending the President’s State of the Union address. See my full statement below. #STOU #Boycott

My friend, big brother, and leader of many struggles, battles, and victories has exited life's stage but never our hearts. Jesse's passion for justice, fair play, and the dignity of all people mattered greatly to him.

As we commemorate the 100th anniversary of Black History Month, I’m joining with Senator Alsobrooks to introduce legislation that would establish the National Council on African American History and Culture. www.washingtoninformer.com/protect-blac...

It was good to welcome to Capitol Hill the Maryland Association of Elementary School Principals to discuss expanding early childhood education, increasing Title 2 funding and supporting school counselors and teachers.

I always look forward to FOX 45's Annual B'More Healthy Expo at the Baltimore Convention Center. Over 50 community organizations provided free screenings, health checks, nutrition information, and more. #bmorehealthyexpo #Baltimore #healthylifestyle #community

On Saturday, I joined Pastor Isaiah Redd for the Emmarts UMC Commemorative walk to celebrate Black History Month. #Baltimore #BlackHistoryMonth

On the 5th day of Black History Month, President Trump chose to share racist imagery targeting Barack and Michelle Obama. There is no room for evasions or excuses. Every House Republican Member has a responsibility to condemn this unrepentant racism, clearly and without delay.

This week I had a great opportunity to join Rep. Jamie Raskin in meeting with States Attorney's Ivan Bates, Rich Gibson, Joyce King, Charlie Smith and Catherine Flynn. #MarylandStatesAttorneys #opiodcrisis #victimsofcrime #marylandprosecutors #onlinechildsafety

Thank you to everyone who attended (in-person and virtually) The CASH Campaign of Maryland's 25th Anniversary Tax Season Kick-Off event. #Baltimore #Maryland #CASH #EmpowerMaryland #FinancialEducation #CommunityImpact #FinancialFreedom

I joined with members of the Maryland delegation, Pastor Bill Humphrey, and faith leaders from congregations across Baltimore for a press conference to highlight the recent events in Minnesota involving ICE and the Department of Homeland Security.

I am outraged by this video purportedly showing appalling, inhumane conditions at ICE’s Baltimore Field Office at Hopkins Plaza.

It's absolutely sickening to see another protester killed by masked, lawless DHS agents. How many more shootings do we have to witness before we finally rein in this out-of-control agency and protect our communities? #Minnesota #ICE

Congress should not consider adding a single dollar to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) until ICE stops their masked, lawless assault on our communities. Below is my full statement on why I voted NO on the DHS funding bill.

It was great to join the Elijah Cummings Youth Program Celebration, Honoring the Legacy of Congressman Elijah Cummings: Lifting Others As We Rise, on what would have been his 75th birthday.

#ICYMI I signed on to article of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. She has failed to lead and has lost the trust of everyday fair-minded Americans.

Happy Birthday, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. #MLK #martinlutherkingjr #RIP

Today, I have signed onto articles of impeachment against Secretary Kristi Noem. My full statement is below.

Five years after the January 6th Insurrection, I will not go away, and I will not stop speaking out against the lawlessness and the violence that occurred on that dark day in our nation's history.

On January 1, Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans made life even more expensive for everyday Americans by ending Affordable Care Act tax credits and by raising premiums for 24 MILLION working families.

Congratulations to my friend and colleague of many years, Congressman Steny Hamilton Hoyer for his many years of distinguished and unrivaled service to America and the people of Maryland. Steny has been one of the ablest legislators that this nation has ever produced.

Here is my statement on today’s ICE shooting in Minnesota.

Five years ago today, I stood on the floor of the House of Representatives prepared to execute my constitutional duties in certifying the election of Joe Biden as President.

Donald Trump's illegal invasion of the sovereign country of Venezuela without military provocation should anger every American and every member of Congress. Trump was elected to run America, not Venezuela. www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

As I reflect on 2025, I can only thank God for keeping us through it all! I wish you a healthy, happy, and safe New Year. Welcome 2026! #newyear2026 #happynewyear #health #peace #safety #grattitude #faith #hope

I am pleased to announce that the winner for this year’s 2025 Congressional App Challenge for Maryland’s 7th Congressional District is Robert Thomas of Cristo Rey Jesuit High School.

May this Christmas bring peace and joy as we gather with family, friends, and loved ones. Wishing everyone a blessed and meaningful day and #MerryChristmas!

Recently, I was happy to join the Northwest Citizens Patrol (NWCP), along with Baltimore City and County Police Officers, and community members that stretch the distance of #ParkHeights to recognize the organization during its annual dinner.

I was saddened and outraged by Saturday’s deadly mass shooting on the campus of Brown University and the vicious attack against the Australian Jewish community during their celebration of Hanukkah. www.fox5ny.com/video/1756264

Recently, I spent time with the incredible students of Glenmount Elementary School as a follow-up to their visit to Capitol Hill a couple months ago. Thank you to teacher Eric Saan and Glenmount staff for hosting me. wbaltv.com/article/mary... #School #Students #FutureLeaders #GlenmountElementary

Last week, I introduced the National Museum of the Blind People’s Movement Act with Senator Van Hollen, alongside National Federation of the Blind leadership and community. 🎥 Credit: National Federation of the Blind

#ICYMI - Tonight, I joined Rev. Al Sharpton on #PoliticsNation to discuss the MAGA Republican healthcare and affordability crisis, the implications of the deadly boat strikes in the Caribbean, and my concerns about #SCOTUS taking up Trump’s efforts to end birthright citizenship.

The affordability crisis impacting working families, union households, veterans, single parents and individuals with disabilities in Baltimore and around the nation seems to only be getting worse.

My best wishes to Speaker Jones as she plots the next chapter in her life. Adrienne’s leadership as Speaker and her guiding example will be sorely missed. www.baltimoresun.com/2025/12/04/a...

With a grateful heart, I wish each and every one of you a #HappyThanksgiving. May your day be filled with community, gratitude, plenty of delicious food — and go #Ravens! #GiveThanks #Gratitude #Family #Friends #TurkeyDay #Blessed
