Proudly representing Maryland’s 3rd Congressional District.
Thank you to the 2,400+ Marylanders who joined my first telephone town hall of the new year! Knowing what issues matter to you always helps inform my work here in Washington. Even if you weren’t able to join us, we’ll be hosting more live conversations and in-person town halls soon. Stay tuned!

I’ve attended the Anne Arundel County Chamber of Commerce’s annual Legislative Breakfast for the last decade, listening to and learning the challenges and opportunities facing the business community.

➡️ I’ve co-sponsored legislation to require greater oversight of immigration enforcement officers, including body cameras and greater accountability to Congress.

➡️ I will vote NO on blank checks for DHS and ICE.

Here’s what Democrats are doing to fight back:

➡️ I’ve joined my colleagues in Congress to demand answers from DHS and ICE and a complete and credible investigation of Good’s death.

Today, I joined neighbors in Howard County to mourn the killing of wife and mother, Renee Good, and send a clear message: ICE has no place in our neighborhoods.

This week, the House passed $10 million for #MD03! But, how does that money reach our District, and what does it fund? That’s today’s topic of Sarah Explains It All.

For the past 43 years, the EPA and the Chesapeake Bay Program Office have been crucial partners in upholding the Chesapeake Bay Agreement to ensure the conservation, restoration, and protection of one of our community’s most vital resources.

Since 1634, the Maryland National Guard has played a crucial role in serving our state, defending our country, and advancing our national security objectives – serving a critical function in World War II and other major conflicts and employing more than 7,000 personnel today.

Great news: after months and months of House Democrats fighting to extend the ACA tax credits through every means possible, a few House Republicans have joined us, and we have finally voted to extend these crucial tax credits. Now, the bill heads to the Senate!
January 8, 2026 at 10:18 PM
Exciting news: after months of negotiation, Congress passed a critical government funding legislation that includes major investments in #MD03! I came to Congress to deliver for our neighbors – many who have felt left behind by Washington for far too long.

For the five year anniversary of January 6th, I joined my colleagues for a moment of reflection to honor those who bravely defended our Capitol, our Constitution, and our democracy.

Fifteen years ago today, our nation witnessed a horrible act of political violence after a gunman opened fire at a supermarket parking lot in Tucson, attempting to assassinate former Congresswoman Gabby Gifford. Six people lost their lives, and 13 were injured, including Giffords.

My career began with an internship in Leader Hoyer’s office, and there hasn’t been a day since I joined Congress that I haven’t seen Steny lead our delegation with fierce dedication. Leader Hoyer exemplifies the best of public service: diligence, collaboration, and tireless fight for his community.

Today, I’m back in Washington after Congress’ short break for the holidays. Here’s a quick breakdown of the good, the ugly, and what we are working on.

Today marks the five-year anniversary of January 6th. One of the darkest days in our history, we witnessed our democracy pushed to the brink after the President incited an angry mob to storm our nation’s Capitol.

UPDATE: the @laborcaucus.house.gov has officially endorsed the Shutdown Student Loans for Feds Act that @alsobrooks.senate.gov and I introduced to help federal workers make ends meet during government shutdowns!
January 5, 2026 at 3:08 PM
From casework requests to tours of the Capitol, my team is here to help you any way we can. This past year, my team and I booked 806 tours in Washington, D.C. for more than 3,800 visitors.

Our firefighters and first responders keep our families safe on their hardest days. Last month, I joined my @laborcaucus.house.gov colleagues to meet with IAFF President Edward Kelly to discuss how we can continue supporting our firefighters here in Maryland and across the country.

The President’s unilateral overnight strikes on Venezuela were reckless, destabilizing, and endangered our servicemembers. See below for my full statement:

My team and I are here to help you on your hardest days – whether that’s help with your Social Security benefits, a tax return, or a VA claim. This past year, my team and I helped resolve 1,078 cases and returned $873,292 directly to constituents!
