So grateful to have you as a champion, @jwaldstreicher! We're looking forward to building on our progress by passing the Family and Law Enforcement Protection Act (SB 943) through the JPR committee to protect victims of domestic violence.
Thrilled to recently be part of @MomsDemand Lobby Day! We are making incredible progress cracking down on gun violence in Maryland--including Chairman @Willcsmithjr's bill to make gun trafficking a felony.
Arming teachers is not the solution.
We know what actually works: universal background checks, red flag laws, safe storage, and an assault weapons ban.
Shame on extremists in the Tennessee legislature for failing to protect our children.

42% of suicides in Maryland are committed by a firearm.
Today I introduced the Suicide Awareness & Firearm Education (SAFE) Act requiring gun shops to display and distribute pamphlets on suicide prevention + accessing help.
We’ve had enough thoughts and prayers – we must act.
Guns, once again, were the leading cause of death among children and teens in 2021 accounting for more deaths than COVID-19, car crashes, or cancers.
