    This isn't just about Dr. Etzel—it's about keeping our kids safe. And it is part of a much larger story of what's happening at Environmental Protection Agency, where they are undermining science and attacking scientists.

    Why is Trump refusing to allow his own intel officials to brief Congress on Jamal Khashoggi’s murder? Is he afraid it will be inconsistent with what he has been saying? Is he more interested in protecting the Saudi investments in Trump properties than getting to the truth?

    Good news: My legislation to allocate funds to each Senate office to pay Senate interns was just signed into law last month. While we were fighting to get it passed in Congress, I sat down with to talk about why this is so important. Take a look ↓

    Think about this for a second: The President of the United States is being used as the mouthpiece by the Saudi regime to cover up the murder of a US-based journalist. This Administration must sanction those responsible and suspend arms sales—not parrot the regime’s propaganda.

    Hungry Harvest has an incredible backstory. After coming up with the concept in his dorm basement, Evan Lutz struggled to get investors but didn’t give up. Now, they have over 40 employees and have reduced 9M pounds of food from going to the landfill. Keep up the good work!

    It was great meeting with last week to talk about the important work done by our civil servants. We must fight back against President Trump's attacks on federal workers—from undermining civil service protections to cutting retirement benefits, and freezing their pay.

    Yesterday, we passed a resolution that I introduced with to honor Senator Joe Tydings. Every single Senator—Democrat and Republican—supported it. It’s a small way to pay our respects to a man who was a progressive champion and great public servant.

    Below is a photo of Russian oligarch, Vladimir Potanin. In July, the FBI blew the whistle on the fact that Potanin was the largest investor in the software vendor that maintains key parts of Maryland’s voting infrastructure. He also happens to be best buds with Vladimir Putin.

    The GOP love talking about health care but never mention that they always vote AGAINST efforts to protect families. Case in point: ’s plan to stop Trump's expansion of “junk plans.” Now those with pre-existing conditions will suffer and millions will face ↑ costs.

    It is an insult to call sexual assault survivors partisan. In fact, many have gone out of their way to say that their decision to come forward had nothing to do with ideology. When President Trump mocked Dr. Ford, he mocked every single one of the 50 Marylanders who wrote to me.

    "I can tell you absolutely, without hesitation, that what haunts you the most, what affects how you relate in the future with your loving spouse, what affects how you feel about yourself, and what affects even your sense of smell, is the memory of the person who abused you."

    Amid the chaos, there was a bit of good news. As we confront a national opioid crisis, the Senate passed a bipartisan bill to boost our efforts to combat the epidemic. Still much work to do, but this is a positive step. Rick, thanks for turning your pain into action for others.

    Happy 60th Anniversary ! You’ve been on the frontiers of scientific discovery for decades and have inspired the next generation of explorers and innovators—including 8-year-old science wiz, Romanieo Golphin Jr., and . May the Force always be with you!

    Last week, I spoke to the Military Association of America. We talked about the importance of providing our veterans with the healthcare they need, the opening of an outpatient clinic in Gaithersburg, and finding bipartisan solutions to help our military members and veterans.

    Thank you to all the Marylanders who have come down to the Senate today to stand in solidarity with Dr. Ford. The support you are providing sends a strong message to victims of sexual assault: you are not alone and we will have your back.

    Look who dropped by the Senate today: Maryland’s Principal of the Year—Mildred Charley-Greene! We discussed her work in schools, the need for great teachers, and how we hope President Trump will sign legislation this week to boost education funding.

    In a rather dim week in the Senate, it is always so wonderful meeting with Marylanders. I am so incredibly lucky to represent such inspiring, hardworking, and thoughtful citizens—your passionate grassroots activism keeps me going!

    Trump said that corporations would invest their tax cut savings in new factories, equipment, and $4,000 pay raises. But instead, most of those savings are going towards $700B+ in stock buybacks for wealthy stockholders. And foreign stockholders own 35% of US corporate stock!

    The facts from the CBO are clear: we’ll have a major increase in deficits as a direct result of the GOP tax plan. $1.8 trillion to be exact. Now the House GOP is trying to pass more tax cuts for the rich with no plan to pay for them. So much for their concern about the deficit!

    Good news: We got full funding for the STAR Act. This law helps address the unique barriers to studying childhood cancer that are slowing down and preventing the next breakthrough in treatment. Thanks to all the advocates, big and small, who helped make this happen!
