I am committed to protecting the right to vote, which is why I am a proud cosponsor of the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act, legislation to ensure every American’s voice is heard at the ballot box. I also oppose legislation that creates new barriers to voting like the SAVE Act, which could disenfranchise millions of Americans, particularly women. Finally, I will continue to trust and support state and local election officials who fairly and effectively run secure elections.

I do not. Under the current Administration, ICE has repeatedly undermined public trust, including through wrongful arrests, the deportation of American citizens and a routine disregard for widely-accepted law enforcement standards. This reckless conduct turned deadly when two Americans were killed during federal enforcement operations in Minnesota. These tragedies were entirely preventable and demand immediate change.

Voters gave Congress a clear mandate: address skyrocketing costs. Unfortunately, Congressional Republicans have consistently prevented efforts to lower costs for hardworking Americans. In fact, their support for cost-raising tariffs and refusal to extend the now-expired Affordable Care Act (ACA) tax credits have only increased the cost of living. That is why I am fighting back everyday: against the tariffs, and for the ACA tax credits and other programs that put money back into your pockets.

We should be focused on ensuring the safety of Americans and setting an example for the entire world through a balance between strategic defense spending, international aid and diplomacy. Trump Administration policies have done the opposite: cutting aid and taking unauthorized military actions, which undermines our credibility abroad and risks more conflicts — actions that jeopardize the lives of our military personnel and drive up costs at home.

We must strengthen our social safety nets – not weaken them. I opposed legislation giving tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy while cutting Medicaid and SNAP. I fought to release SNAP funding during government shutdowns and introduced amendments to block unnecessary work requirements. I will continue to fight cuts and work to strengthen support for vulnerable Marylanders.

The Save Act is essential to assure photo Voter Identification, and proof of Legal U.S. Citizenship is required, as well Voter rolls are purged of any persons, deceased, moved, or where citizenship has not been proven. That we eliminate mail in ballots except in cases of special circumstances, and military service members. And eliminate same day registration and voting. Eliminate Voting Machines use Paper Ballots. To protect every person’s rights: one person one vote.

We must assure America is secure to prevent senseless acts of violence from those who have entered our country illegally. We must maintain secure borders, as they establish our safety, security, and sovereignty. A nation that fails to control its borders cannot protect its citizens, preserve the rule of law, or sustain the liberty that defines the American Republic. End sanctuary for illegal aliens at all levels of government.
