Nurses faced down the pandemic, putting in long hours to care for the sick and protect our communities
On #NationalNursesDay let’s show our thanks for these heroes on the frontlines and give them the resources they need to stay in the fight and continue their essential work
A near perfect game
The first no-hitter for the O’s in 52 years
The Orioles and @JMeans25 are making Maryland proud
The moment that will live in Orioles lore.
The magical @JMeans25.
I got my vaccine and encourage you to do the same. These vaccines are safe, effective and our best way to defeat this pandemic and continue our recovery
#DontWaitVaccinate and if you’ve already been vaccinated, urge others to get the shot #CBCVaccinationWeek

Transit workers are on the frontlines of this pandemic and essential to our vaccination efforts
I visited the @FEMA vaccination site at Greenbelt Metro with @ATULocal689 to get a first hand look at these efforts and encourage vaccination for all workers in MD #DontWaitVaccinate
Maryland can and must do more to ensure our recovery is equitable and meets the needs of our residents
It’s unacceptable for our state to lag behind the rest of the country. We need targeted outreach and action to get shots into arms, people back in jobs and families whole again
Survey: Maryland ranked near the bottom on list of states recovering quickest from the pandemic.
Maryland 42nd
DC 46th
Based on vaccination rate, Covid hospitalizations, unemployment, job postings, et al. https://twitter.com/wallethub/status/1389539200765202432
This week is #CBCVaccinationWeek. I visited the @FEMA Greenbelt Vaccination site which is providing metro accessible vaccinations to the Capital Region thanks to our frontline workers
#DontWaitVaccinate, it’s the best way to protect yourself, your family and your neighbors
Mainers don’t want New Hampshire making their decisions, Washingtonians don’t want Maryland calling the shots
Hear me out, what if we listen to the more than 700,000 Americans in DC who want statehood and give them the full representation they deserve
"There is a way to ensure that the residents of DC having voting representation in Congress, and that is for DC to become part of Maryland" -- Susan Collins on CNN
