The Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit are two of the most important tools we have to lift families out of poverty. If we want this to be Maryland’s Decade, we need to ensure everyone has a real pathway to success. I know the folks in Washington, D.C. seem to have different types of priorities and different things that are keeping their attention Maryland is going to prove there is a better way

May this celebration remind us that faith and courage can turn any darkness into light, and may you always remember the power and strength in community.
No se puede andar aterrorizando comunidades y lastimando a la gente y pensar que eso está bien. No en Maryland.
Por eso, @oagmaryland.bsky.social y yo estamos presentando una demanda en los tribunales para proteger a los residentes de Maryland frente al operativo de ICE de la administración Trump.
You can’t go around terrorizing communities and hurting people and think that’s okay. Not in Maryland.
That’s why @oagmaryland.bsky.social and I are suing to help protect Marylanders from the Trump administration’s ICE operation.

Text overlay reads: "Governor Moore, Comptroller Lierman, Treasurer Davis demand reimbursement from President Trump for illegal tariffs."
Text on a dark background reads: “I have long said that while tariffs are a tool of international trade, the Trump-Vance Administration has waged war on our families and raised taxes on us all.” “This isn't just about bad policy; this is about the Supreme Court making it clear that these unilateral actions are illegal. This $4 billion represents real money taken away from Maryland families—now the Trump Administration needs to do what’s right and pay Marylanders back.” – Governor Wes Moore.
The Trump-Vance Administration waged war on our families and raised taxes on us all, costing Marylanders billions.
We’re demanding they pay Marylanders back.
Dawn and I join all of Maryland in sending our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of the service members killed in action, as well as to those who have been seriously wounded.
We continue to pray for peace and for the safety of all of our deployed service members.

I am closely monitoring the ongoing military operations in Iran. International military actions have a direct and profound impact on Maryland’s families and communities.
I served in Afghanistan and I’ve seen who pays the price when Washington rushes into conflict.
Maryland stepped up when Washington, D.C. left Western Maryland behind.
This year, we’ve proposed $12 million to support flood recovery efforts in Western Maryland.
We will rebuild together.

Baltimore Banner article titled “Maryland sues to block planned Washington County ICE detention center”
No administration is above the law. Our people must be heard when the federal government makes decisions that affect their health, their safety, and their communities.
We’re filing this lawsuit because DHS must be held to the same legal standard as every other federal agency.
That’s a wrap on this year’s @natlgovsassoc.bsky.social winter meeting. 🎬

Thank you @oagmaryland.bsky.social for stepping up to hold DHS to the same legal standard as every other federal agency.
The safety of Marylanders comes first and this storm has the potential to produce life-threatening conditions across large parts of Maryland.
Please stay off the roads, check on your neighbors, listen to local authorities, and take this storm seriously to protect yourself and your loved ones.
No state can fully replace the role of the federal government when it abandons its responsibilities. But in Maryland, we will continue working to protect our people, and keep fighting to lower the cost of health care.

I've declared a State of Preparedness and am directing @mdmema.bsky.social to coordinate readiness efforts across state government in advance of the incoming storm.
The safety of Maryland families comes first. Please prepare early, stay informed, and adjust plans – including postponing travel.
