Judge rules Trump can't act as national police chief
The president broke the law when he deployed troops to Los Angeles, Judge Charles Breyer ruled.
I studied the century-old Posse Comitatus Act in law school. The law, which President Trump violated, is designed to protect American civilians and service members. Again, we see this Administration engaging in ILLEGAL acts that threatens our security as a nation.

House Republicans just approved the largest cut to Medicaid & food assistance in American history to fund tax breaks for billionaires. This bill will rip healthcare away from 17 MILLION Americans and takes food out of the mouths of children, seniors and veterans.

Trump administration targets building that housed USAID for FBI
President Trump’s plan to keep the FBI headquarters in D.C. involves moving the nation’s law enforcement agency to the Ronald Reagan Building downtown.
The announcement today to keep the FBI in DC undermines the funding already appropriated by Congress for the site in Greenbelt MD. We will continue to work with our Federal Delegation to ensure that the FBI headquarters are in MD in a space that is secure and appropriate for our federal officers

Maryland loses coveted AAA bond rating - Maryland Matters
Maryland lost its treasured "triple triple-A" bond rating Wednesday when a key bond-rating agency downgraded its assessment of the state's creditworthiness from AAA after more than 40 years.
As lawmakers were crafting a budget amid a chaotic first 100 days of the second term of Republican President Donald Trump, Moody’s issued another report seen as a potential harbinger of a rating downgrade.
That report listed Maryland as the state at risk.

Today, MD House Dems passed a package of bills to provide immediate and long term relief for Marylanders facing high energy costs.
As these issues continue to go unaddressed at the federal level, we are committed to a more affordable and sustainable future.
