Happy Thanksgiving! I’m grateful to represent the incredible constituents of #MD02 and hope your holiday is filled with joy, rest, and delicious food!🍂🦃

So much to be thankful for today and every day. I started a gratitude journal a few weeks ago and it’s amazing how many good things there are in our lives, from the mundane like coffee to the magnificent like friends and family. Happy Thanksgiving to all! www.baltimoresun.com/2025/11/25/w...

What’s good for the House is good for the Senate. Let’s have both Chambers move THIS WEEK to force the full release of the Epstein files. www.cnn.com/politics/liv...

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, “knew about the girls” — survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse. www.wbaltv.com/article/epst...

Another week of the House of Representatives being closed for business by Speaker Johnson. Another week where we do nothing to address the cost of living crisis facing Americans. Another week where the Epstein files are not being released.

Wishing all Marylanders a joyous Diwali. May your holiday be filled with joy and light!

Rep. Johnny Olszewski D-MD (lower left) tried but failed to get recognized on the House floor today to get Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva D-AZ sworn in. Speaker Johnson has refused to seat Grijalva for more than 3 weeks. "This is wrong and you know it Mr. Speaker."

Swear her in, Speaker Johnson.

President Trump must be suffering from amnesia. 🤷‍♂️ 🫠

We’re at @bwiairport.bsky.social, where TSA officers & air traffic controllers are working without pay during the shutdown. Let's make it clear: 1️⃣ Federal workers are not political pawns 2️⃣ Airports are being negatively impacted 3️⃣ Compromise requires a seat at the table

20 years. 1 amazing kid. 2 rescue pups. 3 elected offices. Countless wonderful memories — and many more adventures together still ahead. With all my love and appreciation, happy anniversary Marisa!

We can’t find compromise if we are not speaking to each other. I continue to call on President Trump and GOP leaders to come to the table to negotiate a deal to re-open the government.

Speaker Johnson, it's past time to swear in Rep-Elect Grijalva.

Thanks to Julie Mason for having me on to discuss the government shutdown, my bill to prevent President Trump from firing federal workers, and my work as a bipartisan leader in Baltimore County. www.siriusxm.com/clips/clip/f...

Federal workers are not political pawns. Trump’s mass firing plan would make a shutdown permanent, taking away livelihoods and harming critical services. I’m introducing the SAFE Act to safeguard federal employees during shutdowns and ensure back pay if they’re fired unlawfully.

Federal workers are people, not political pawns. I call on all of my colleagues in Congress to join me in preventing mass firings by the Trump administration during a potential government shutdown.

We can — and should — be good stewards of the taxpayer dollar, getting the Key Bridge rebuilt quickly and efficiently. I believe those goals can be accomplished while including women, minority, and veteran-owned businesses in the process. www.wbaltv.com/article/us-t...

We have seen a President gleefully ignore the law and instruct Republicans to gut a Congressional budget that had bipartisan support. Any budget that continues that as a "new normal" should be a non-starter. www.baltimoresun.com/2025/08/07/j...

The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel mirrors the type of censorship we see in authoritarian regimes and is part of the White House’s ongoing effort to silence its critics and political opponents. We must stand firm in defending free speech.

Recently sat down with @mddems.bsky.social for their Burn the Talking Points podcast - it was an unscripted, unfiltered conversation on the fight to lower costs, release the Epstein files and protect our democracy. 🎧 Tune in here or wherever you get your podcasts! www.youtube.com/watch?v=da4C...

You’re invited to join me tomorrow for a virtual town hall. We will cover political violence, the Epstein files, banning stock trades for members of Congress and the budget / looming government shutdown.

Caring about survivors of sexual abuse is not a hoax. It is not a distraction. It is the right thing to do and it’s about damn time this Congress finally tackles the Epstein issues once and for all.

245 days … and still no action from this GOP Congressional majority to lower costs for hardworking Americans, only changes that drive costs up. 😡

I joined my colleague @repkweisimfume.bsky.social asking the President to reconsider his plan to send federal troops to Baltimore. www.baltimoresun.com/2025/09/03/m...

Just two more GOP signatures on the Massie discharge petition will guarantee the full release of the Epstein files.

Release the files. No more delays. Release them now.

This could be easy: release the Epstein files, ban stock trading by members of Congress, and pass a bi-partisan spending plan that is recission-proof. 🤷‍♂️ www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Another heartbreaking act of gun violence has taken the lives of two children and injured 17 in Minneapolis. My heart is with the victims, their families, and the entire community. We must act with urgency to advance common-sense solutions to end this crisis. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Our little one is growing up so fast- 4th grade this year! Hope everyone is having a great back to school week.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth at the 2025 Summer Maryland Association of Counties (MACo)Conference in Ocean City! #TeamMD02 enjoyed connecting with Marylanders and our partners from across the state! 🦀 #MACoCon

Prime Minister Netanyahu was told directly: the war must end. Aid must reach Gaza, hostages must be freed, and Hamas must not return to power. I spoke with @cnn.com's @audiecornish.bsky.social about my meeting with the Prime Minister — lasting peace and protecting innocent lives cannot wait.

🧐

Fun event. Important history. www.thebanner.com/community/lo...

We heard countless stories like this during the reconciliation debate. Unfortunately the GOP Congressional majority didn’t care — and now millions are set to lose health coverage. Costs for most lucky enough to still have it will skyrocket. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/21/o...

It happens over and over and over again… www.nytimes.com/2025/08/04/u...

We as Dems need to own our junk too. $4M is an obscene amount for campaign work to begin with, and rest of the story is equally ridiculous. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/01/u...

Release the Epstein files.

Disclosure and transparency are good things. Now apply it to the Epstein files. Release them immediately. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/31/u...

T-minus 7 days ‘til the first @ravens.bsky.social preseason game, so I had to grab the camera for a Lamar Jackson edit. 🐦‍⬛🏈💜 #RavensFlock

The count continues…

Now we know what they are hiding. Release the files now.

Thousands of constituents weighed in, and the results were not surprising…

I’ve officially joined the Massie/Khanna effort to release the Epstein files. I’ll also be signing the discharge petition for this effort at the first possible opportunity.

And … today makes 200 🤦‍♂️

Easy no. My daughter gets it: “why would anyone want to cut funding for programs like Sesame Street?”

Repping the @democrats.org Congressional Baseball Team for tonight’s Congressional Women’s Softball Game — with some bonus @sarajacobsca.bsky.social swag 🥎

Baltimore is strong, resilient, and caring. And like so many cities across the country, it's under attack by this Administration. But we’re pushing back because the people of Baltimore are worth it.

House Republicans just blocked our attempt to release the Epstein files. The American people deserve transparency. What are they trying to hide?

Release the files. All of them.
