The gross display of antisemitism & bigoted graffiti found at Walt Whitman High School today has NO PLACE anywhere. Silence in the face of abominable actions like these is not an option. We must speak out loudly & support MCPD’s efforts to catch the perpetrators of this hate.

Thank you to our beautiful friends at for everything you did to get out the vote here in #HoCoMD. It has been a pleasure working with you in support of our immigrant community.

Voters re-affirm what we already knew: Howard County is a safe and welcoming place! CASA’s rallying cry for this election cycle was to “Vote for Question A,” to uplift the Liberty Act, which prohibited collecting & sharing immigration information about residents.

10 years ago today Maryland passed marriage equality granting same-sex couples their civil right of marriage. And Barry Glassman voted against it. Just a reminder to think about who should represent you as you vote.

HUGE NEWS: A new @washcoll poll shows #MD01 is anyone's race, with six-term incumbent @RepAndyHarrisMD well under 50% just 4 days out. This race will come down to undecided voters, and we know our message of unity and bipartisanship is resonating. Will you RT and spread the word?
