Maryland said we would be the first state in the nation to provide a year of service for the people of our state.
And we meant it.

John Lewis spent a lifetime fighting for democracy. He reminded us that "freedom is not a state; it is an act” — and that “each generation must do its part to create an even more fair, more just society.”
Four years after his passing, his words have never been more important.

Rep. John Lewis knew voting was sacred.
The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act is a chance for us to make clear yet again that we cannot stand by as voter suppression and the disenfranchisement of communities of color infringe upon the rights of our citizens.

It's been four years since we lost Rep. John Lewis
He was a civil rights titan
He risked his life marching at Selma
He devoted his life to working for the rights of every American
And we continue that march today as we work to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act

Governor Moore and I believe that when we serve others, we shift from a life of consumption to a life of contribution, from a life of ME to a life of WE because in the end, what will matter is not what you get, but what you give.
Congrats to the Maryland Corps Class of 2024!

Political violence is unacceptable, and we will not tolerate it – not now, not ever.
Ideas are won and lost at the ballot box.
That is the promise of our democracy, and it is an ideal we need to defend.

Democracy isn't just a static collection of institutions. It’s statehood for millions of disenfranchised people, a stop to voter suppression, and an end to partisan gerrymandering and dark money.
To defend democracy is to defend progress toward a more perfect union.

I remember going to Brooklyn to meet the families in the wake of this tragedy, and seeing that even in the throes of devastation, this community stood united and unbroken.
As we continue to heal, let us continue the fight to end gun violence.
