| Collapse all
- I will be laser focused on affordability and the economy. I will fight dangerous policies like spending freezes and tariffs that make it impossible for families to save, and small businesses to plan for the future.
- I will improve and protect access to affordable healthcare and support vital public health research that's been recklessly cut by the Trump Administration and DOGE.
- I will fight for investments in Maryland’s future and protect its environment so working families can live in our state and benefit from its amazing natural resources.

The government should execute when it says it will do something. For example, they should not take away peoples social security benefits--a benefit that is earned by the American people who have paid into the system over the course of their careers.
