Friends, Early voting is underway and Primary Election Day is next Tuesday, June 26, from 7 am-8 pm. This is an important vote for our community, and I am heartened by how many voters I have already seen at the polls. I hope to see you there, too. I very much appreciate your support of my candidacy these last few weeks and months and especially in the past few days. The work I have done the last two decades on behalf of our neighborhoods could not have been done without

I am proud to be the first in Howard County to have earned the Moms Demand Action Gun Sense Candidate distinction for my campaign for State Delegate 9B.

We can do this. #GunViolence #HoCoMD #9B #MDPolitic

Issue Spotlight: Gun Violence. In the past ten days, the number one issue that voters mention to me as I knock on doors is gun violence. Voters are sick with the thought of another tragic school shooting as happened in Parkland, Florida. I attended a meeting of Marylanders Against Gun Violence in Columbia a couple of days after the incident, and there were three times more people there than expected. Perhaps now, buoyed by the bravery and courage of student survivors as they
