The greatest threat to civil rights is the erosion of equal protection, voting rights, reproductive freedom, and protections against discrimination. I will continue using the Attorney General’s office to defend constitutional rights, enforce civil rights laws, protect vulnerable communities, and challenge unlawful actions that harm Marylanders.

Yes. I support evidence-based approaches, including restorative justice and diversion programs, that improve outcomes for young people while protecting public safety. We must reduce recidivism, expand mental health and reentry support, and invest in prevention and rehabilitation alongside accountability.

My top priorities are protecting consumers, improving public safety, defending civil rights, safeguarding the environment, and holding powerful interests accountable. I will continue strengthening partnerships with local, state, and federal agencies, aggressively enforcing the law, and ensuring the Attorney General’s office remains responsive to Marylanders.

Yes. The Attorney General’s office should aggressively combat scams, fraud, deceptive advertising, and schemes that exploit consumers, especially seniors and vulnerable communities. We will continue using enforcement actions, public education, partnerships with law enforcement, and consumer alerts to protect Marylanders from financial harm and deception.

I will continue taking action against unlawful federal policies that harm Marylanders, threaten constitutional rights, undermine consumer protections, weaken environmental safeguards, or jeopardize public safety and healthcare. My responsibility is to defend Maryland residents and uphold the rule of law, regardless of politics.

The greatest threat to Marylanders' civil rights is the erosion of equal protection under the law — when government plays favorites, enforces laws selectively, or uses legal power as a political weapon. I will enforce civil rights protections evenhandedly, without ideology. Every Marylander, regardless of background, politics, or zip code, deserves equal justice. I am committed to uphold the MD Constitution and apply the law without partiality or prejudice as the AG’s oath of office requires.

As AG, I will focus on victim-centered justice and public safety. I support approaches that hold young offenders accountable, change the direction of their lives, protect victims, and reduce recidivism. Restorative justice can complement — but not replace — accountability. I will work with prosecutors, juvenile case workers, and community leaders to identify solutions that can actually reduce juvenile crime and create hope for our young people, who are often victims of abuse themselves.

1) Fighting crime by supporting our State’s Attorneys and law enforcement and by putting the rule of law ahead of partisan politics; 2) Thwart cyber predators by pushing cyber-crime investigations to the next level, and 3) Protect clean water and our Chesapeake Bay by investigating and prosecuting environmental crimes that harm them. I will promote the Maryland Constitution without partiality or prejudice to build confidence in our institution of law for all Marylanders, not just a favored few.

Absolutely. Protecting Marylanders from consumer fraud, scams, and deceptive business practices is a core responsibility of the AG. I will aggressively seek to hold these predators accountable. What I will not do is use the office to punish political speech or label a political viewpoint as 'disinformation' — that path leads to censorship, which I condemn. The AG does not have the power to declare whose political opinions are acceptable. That decision is made by the voters of Maryland.

The AG should defend the people of MD when the federal government exceeds the authority granted to it by the US Constitution. The MD Constitution declares that federal laws are the Supreme Law of the State and “all the People of this State, are, and shall be bound thereby.” It is a grave matter for MD to resist federal authority and sue to nullify federal law. I will make my decisions based on the facts and the law, and my allegiance to the MD Constitution, not to partisan politics.
