Maryland's Governor. On a mission to #LeaveNoOneBehind.
Today marks 81 years since Auschwitz was liberated. Tonight, the First Lady and I lit Government House in remembrance of those who had their lives and loved ones persecuted and murdered during the Holocaust.

I testified in support of House Bill 488, which puts forth a new congressional map as recommended by the bipartisan Redistricting Advisory Commission.

Our administration is stepping up to deliver relief by focusing on driving down the cost of utility bills and investing in local projects that make energy more reliable and affordable.

Fentanyl overdose deaths have significantly dropped in the past years, but we must continue to work with federal, state, and local officials to keep Marylanders safe.

I commend the hard work being done by Mayor Scott, State’s Attorney Bates, and local law enforcement to tackle this head-on.

Enjoy the day indoors, Maryland!

Please stay off the roads if you can and enjoy this time with friends, family, or any furry friends you're snowed in with. ☃️🐾

The team at our Emergency Operations Center has been working around the clock throughout this winter storm.

I appreciate them sacrificing the comforts of their own home to help keep Marylanders safe and informed.

I’ve reached out to both Gov. Walz and Sen. Klobuchar following the latest shooting involving federal agents in Minnesota.

Marylanders have witnessed this cruelty in our own communities – during a school drop-off in Salisbury and in Glen Burnie on Christmas Eve. These are not isolated incidents.

This winter storm has the potential to be dangerous.

Please use common sense and show common courtesy.

Unless you have a serious emergency, plan to stay home starting tomorrow. Adjust your plans for Sunday and Monday now.

Let the professionals do their jobs, so we can all stay safe.

Ahead of the winter storm, I’ve signed an executive order declaring a State of Emergency.

I've also requested that Pres. Trump authorize a Federal Emergency Declaration so that the federal govt can provide resources including personnel, equipment like generators, and funds for protective measures.

When it comes to vaccines, there should be no confusion or politics involved.

That’s why we’re introducing the Vax Act – so Maryland can issue its own health recommendations and guarantee recommended vaccines are fully covered by insurance.

Yesterday, I declared a State of Preparedness for Maryland and have directed @mdmema.bsky.social to coordinate preparation ahead of the expected winter storm this weekend.

Our top priority is keeping people safe. Please stay alert, follow guidance, use common sense, and make sure you’re prepared.

Protecting our people. Lowering costs for Marylanders. Increasing Maryland’s economic competitiveness.

These pillars are what our proposed budget focuses on – what Marylanders need most.

Being fiscally responsible doesn't mean we stop investing in what matters to Marylanders.

But it does mean being more targeted and data-driven in how we invest.

These maps represent the will of the people. The people of our legislature should now vote on them.

Marylanders are already being stretched by the rising cost of groceries, housing, and everyday necessities.

Now, they’re worried invasive data practices and unpredictable price spikes could make grocery bills even more expensive.

I strongly condemn the Islamophobic and anti-Palestinian message spray-painted on the walls of Walt Whitman High School in Bethesda.

Hate has no place in Maryland. We and the MCPS community share a commitment to ensuring everyone feels safe, seen, and heard.

Everyone can be great because everyone can serve.

I’ve teamed up with the Department of Service and Civic Innovation for their Statewide Day of Service to honor Dr. King and all he stood for.

It was great to serve with members of the Maryland Corps/Service Year Option and Americorps Maryland.
