“Instead, our opposition is demonizing neighbors and cutting programs for marginalized community members who are also under attack from national politicians. I know our interdependent communities are our strength. We keep each other safe. We care for each other. We thrive when we rise together.” (Campaign website (brownformaryland.com))
“Every day, I’m advocating for the people who are the hardest hit by bad policies and who have the most to lose when our leaders get it wrong. People in our district are dealing with absurdly high gas prices, lack of transportation, inadequate social services, overcrowded schools, and job insecurity.” (Campaign website (brownformaryland.com))
