looking to the future

Cascade Falls, Elkridge, Maryland

As your Senator, it has been my pleasure to serve the citizens of Maryland with issues related to the federal government over the last 18 years. Since I am not running for re-election, my office will have to stop taking new constituent cases after Wednesday, November 6, 2024.

If you have an open case with my office, you will receive a letter regarding the status over the next few weeks. If you have any questions, please call 410-962-4436.
