I was honored to help lead the charge to pass the Community Trust Act, working alongside my colleagues @senbillferg.bsky.social, @willcsmithjr.bsky.social, & Sen. Lam. Supported by @wearecasa.bsky.social, this legislation increases public safety & ends cooperation with ICE. Proud we go it done!

"Sen. Jeff Waldstreicher defended Ahn’s appointment by saying there was no conflict of interest. He also recalled Ahn’s record of service to his school district during the pandemic." www.baltimoresun.com/2026/03/13/m...

“The new secretary has changed the culture of the department, has changed the policies of the department, and is committed not to an ideological vision--but to a vision of safety and rehabilitation,” Waldstreicher said. www.thebanner.com/politics-pow...

“I believe that this bill is 100% constitutional, but the most important thing is that it’s the right thing to do,” Waldstreicher said. Waldstreicher conceded that some of the bills “will have constitutional risks,” but added that, “These are dire times.” marylandmatters.org/2026/02/26/h...
