The Montgomery County Women's Democratic Club is issuing the following statement

Thank you @vanhollen.senate.gov for joining our Annual meeting last night. Your glimpse into Capitol Hill & willingness to chat makes us so proud to call you our Senator. 🙏

The WDC Annual meeting is next week!! AND our outstanding Senator @vanhollen.senate.gov is our keynote speaker!! It's a members-only event. If you are not a member, join now: montgomerycountywomensdemocraticclub.app.neoncrm.com/np/clients/m... Register to attend: tinyurl.com/2026-annual-mtg

Join @womensdemclubmoco.bsky.social (WDC) to hear from the Democratic candidates for County Executive on Sunday, May 3 from 3-5 p.m. With early voting between June 11-18 and Primary Election Day on June 23, this is an excellent opportunity to hear from the candidates.

We are calling on Speaker Joseline Pena Melnyk to act on SB50: Special Elections. It sits in the Senate because the House attached an amendment they knew would not pass. This is not the democratic process we constituents expect & deserve. You have Monday to fix this, please.

We are so excited to welcome @simonwdc.bsky.social of Hopium Chronicles as our guest on Thursday, April 9th. Register at tinyurl.com/rosenberg-2026 More information on the flyer. See you there!
