“If service is beneath you then leadership is beyond you.”
Whether it was distributing healthy food with The Storehouse, giving a tour of the MD State House with Alpha Academy mentees, or partnering with the P.G. County Dept. of Health’s Health Expo, I will be a servant of all.
Congressman @StenyHoyer has represented me in Washington well. I thank him for is decades of service to the great people of Southern Maryland who share a common cause: the betterment of our families and communities.
I will never forget @RepStenyHoyer’s “S. Hamilton Hoyer” story!
I have decided not to seek another term in the People's House. Representing the people of Maryland's Fifth District has been my great privilege and sacred responsibility for 45 years. Thank you for electing me as your Congressman 23 times.

A promise made - A promise kept!
Rebuilding Suitland High was Objective One since Day One of my two terms on the Board of Education.
To the current and future Rams who will walks these halls, I know that you all will take these mere building materials and build magic every day!
When they ask —— ANSWER THE CALL.
When they ask: Who can we trust?
When they ask: What else is needed from us?
When they ask: When will better days come?
When they ask: Where do we start from?
When they ask: Why are our dreams deferred?
When they ask: How can we reach higher?
Congratulations to all of the @pgcps schools for this amazing recognition, especially Clinton Grove Elementary and Francis T. Evans Elementary of the 25th District!

When witnessing an injustice, raise your voice.
When called upon to serve, raise your hand.
When aspiring to inspire, raise your standard.
If you can do that, then you can lead.
That is what public servants do - they balance advocacy, action, and the ability to be the example.
Happy First Day of School, @pgcps community!
Whether today begins their journey with our county’s school system or today is their last first day, it is my sincere hope that success meets every single student, educator, staff member, administrator, and leader each and every day!

Much of the federal government’s workforce resides in Prince George’s County.
Yet, however, our county does not have an equal share of federal government agencies located within our borders.
This relocation decision by HUD is another example of an opportunity lost for growth.
AGENCY RELOCATION: The Department of Housing and Urban Development plans to move out of D.C. to Alexandria, booting the National Science Foundation from its current headquarters.

Last night, New York City sent a resounding message that stagnation is no longer the standard and that the desires of the doubted are more than mere dreams — they are demands.
As public servants, our agenda must align with the will of the people; their voices must be uplifted.

As we celebrate Juneteenth, let our history remind us all of our battles won and yet won; the trials and tribulations that accompany our standard of success; and that, while our growth comes from yesterday and hope belongs to tomorrow, our strength and resolve fuels us right now.
We held two Class Representative elections today during Career Day at William Beanes Elementary!
Being a politician requires character, charisma, and courage — three traits that I know these students have.
During my time on the Board of Education, the students, families, and staff of Longfields Elementary were always an example of what a school community should be.
I am glad that they are getting the state-level recognition they deserve!

Governor Wes Moore and State Superintendent Dr. Carey Wright joined us at Longfields Elementary today to see how educators and students are working together to achieve big gains in math and literacy! #PGCPSProud
A couple of facts: Taylor Swift has performed at a “world-class stadium” in DC and Beyonce has two upcoming shows at “that place in Landover”.
If you do not want to travel to Prince George’s County, could you just say that instead of speaking incorrectly into a hot microphone?
"In Washington DC, the most powerful city in the world, we should have a world-class stadium - not a situation where Taylor Swift says we're doing 23 cities but not DC, because we're not going to that place in Landover."
It’s a great day to be a Puma!
To the newest alumni of my alma mater, I know success will continue to find each and every one of you as you all go on to do great things in the future.
Great things happen all throughout @pgcps.
The best things happen on Brooke Lane!

Congratulations, Suitland Rams!
You are joining one of, if not, the strongest group of alumni in the county!
Great things are happening on Silver Hill Road and I know great things will come from the Class of 2025! Go Rams!
