The Port of Baltimore supports nearly 150,000 jobs and contributes over $15 million to our economy every day. Getting the Port up and running again is important for all Americans. The federal government will do everything we can to rebuild after this devastating tragedy.

As part of DOT’s ongoing work to ease supply chain disruptions at the Port of Baltimore, our team worked with Tradepoint Atlantic to use a federal grant to lay down pavement and bring in additional cargo. Great to see this construction well underway.

This week, the @SBAgov eliminated a rule that prevented folks on probation or parole from accessing SBA funds and banned the box on its loan forms. By making it easier for returning citizens to become entrepreneurs, we reduce recidivism and rebuild lives.

I applaud @POTUS for taking this action during #SecondChanceMonth . There is so much we must do to right the wrongs from our past & address the decades of overcriminalization our nation has endured, but today we celebrate that these folks will get the second chance they deserve.

Today, I am using my clemency power to pardon 11 individuals and commute the sentences of 5 individuals who were convicted of non-violent drug offenses. These recipients have shown that they deserve forgiveness and the chance at building a brighter future beyond prison walls.

Heartbreaking news. Donald was an incredible man who always stood up for what he believed in. He embodied everything a Member of Congress should be and I was proud to work alongside him for so many years. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones during this tragic time.

Had a great time at the @TuerkConference today. I came to Congress to end our opioid and mental health epidemics after losing my nephew to a fentanyl overdose. The sad reality is that my story is not unique, 112,000 died from overdoses last year alone. We must do more.

Happy #EarthDay ! Today, I reaffirm my commitment to protecting our planet for future generations. I'm proud to have voted for historic climate bills like the Inflation Reduction Act, but we still must do more. We can't let our children inherit a world that's beyond repair.

In 2020, my bill to repeal the Pell Grants ban for incarcerated students was signed into law, expanding education and improving reentry outcomes. Now, it's exciting to see that all #MD prisons will have a pathway to higher education. This is what second chances are all about.

Proud to join @RepCardenas in introducing a resolution to declare April as #SecondChanceMonth to focus on helping returning citizens rebuild their lives. My Fresh Start Act and @RepLBR 's Clean Slate Act aim to do just that by streamlining the sealing of eligible arrest records.

Pain management lies at the heart of our substance use epidemic. We've got to figure out a way to effectively manage pain while preventing the overprescribing of opioids. During our roundtable yesterday, the @bmhsudtf sat down with experts to learn how to address this crisis.

Great to see my friend and former Hagerstown Mayor, @Emily_N_Keller , today! Substance use disorder is a serious disease, last year 112,000 died from overdoses. We've got to do more to end this crisis, and with folks like Special Secretary Keller in charge, we'll get the job done.
