What an amazing day in Annapolis! Blessed to join my guy @KevinLiles1 and the #FreeOurArt coalition for the historic bill signing of SB475 - a bill I was honored to support as our great state leads the way in helping to ensure we no longer allow prosecutors to unjustly use rap lyrics to put young black and brown artists behind bars for crimes they didn’t commit.

Huge shoutout to Delegate @marlonamprey who has championed this legislation for years and whose continuous advocacy and fearless leadership helped shepherd this bill to the desk of Governor Moore for his signature. Maryland is only the beginning of this movement, but we are proud to lead the nation on this important issue! Join the movement @FreeOurArtHQ #ProtectingArtistsCreativeExpression

I’ve seen Baltimore experience four homicides in a day - even the span of a few hours - countless times. April just saw 4 homicides for the entire month, a single-month, all-time low for the records we have going back to 1970. @alex_mann10 reports https://t.co/UxzAYdVJn6
