“This has been a game-changer.” Because of the bipartisan infrastructure law we passed and President Biden signed, toxic lead pipes are FINALLY getting replaced in communities like Baltimore and across America. — @SenatorCardin and @EPAMichaelRegan

Congress has an opportunity to include the Baltimore BRIDGE Relief Act in our upcoming FAA Bill. For the national economy and Baltimore community, it is critical to replace the FSK Bridge as quickly as possible.

On Monday, I participated in a field hearing at @BowieState with @SenatorCardin and @ChrisVanHollen to highlight the impacts of racial discrimination in federal contracting. We must strengthen protections for disadvantaged businesses unfairly excluded from the American dream.

Happy birthday to my best friend and the reason why I’ll always come home after work, no matter how late Congress burns the midnight oil. Teenage Ben knew what he was doing when he asked you to go steady.

My heart is with the family and loved ones of José Mynor López, the sixth and final missing victim to be recovered from the FSK Bridge collapse tragedy. Those who knew José say he was generous and loved to help people. We can honor his memory by being kind to each other.

Behind our favorite songs, books and people are educators who shaped minds and instilled a love for learning. Each day we should find ways to appreciate educators, but on #TeacherAppreciationDay , we need to shout our gratitude from the rooftops. Thank you! @MSEAeducators 🍎✏️

If there's one unifying belief that every political party should have, it's that children need to be protected. That protection does not stop because of who they love or how they identify. To all LGBTQ kids out there, you're valid, and we want you here.

On Yom HaShoah, communities of all creeds and nationalities come together to commemorate one of the darkest times in human history. We honor the six million Jews who perished and those who survived the Holocaust. May their memory be a blessing.
