Herbert,

As we gather with family and friends this Thanksgiving, I want to take a moment to share my gratitude — for this community, for your engagement, and for your support.

This holiday reminds us what truly matters: being kind and working together toward a future where every person and every family can access opportunity. Whether it's helping neighbors in need, strengthening our education and housing systems, or fighting for a democracy that serves the people, I draw my inspiration from the generous and resilient people of Maryland’s Second District each and every day.

I’m thankful for the trust you place in me and for the opportunity to serve you. The conversations, ideas and challenges you share drive me to fight even harder for transparency, fairness and a government grounded in decency and compassion.

From my family to yours, I wish you a safe, joyful, and restorative Thanksgiving.

Gratefully,
