Two voters at my address. Four official mailers from the Board of Elections. Our polling place is Clarksburg HS. Half the mailers say otherwise: Germantown and Poolesville. Weeks before a critical election. Don't trust the mailer. Check yours: voterservices.elections.maryland.gov/PollingPlace...

"Super Intelligence" in the headline. "Unites States" on the signature line.

Redundancy only works if you keep it. WSSC took one of its largest plant's two power feeds down and kept running with no fallback. The other feed failed today, and Pepco says WSSC's own equipment caused it. That wasn't bad luck. It was a decision, and whoever made it should lose their job.

A sitting member of Congress running for US Senate wrote this. Five days before her primary. 🧵

Tonight, from the East Room, the President told America our elections are rigged. He offered no proof, because there is none. He lost. He's just afraid to lose again. This cannot be accepted. My full statement on tonight's address.

This is the map our congresswoman used in a campaign video. She doesn’t live in this district. She can’t find it on a map. She represents it. I cannot. Vote tomorrow.

Being gay. Being bisexual. Being trans. Not a liability. That kid who knows they’re different but hasn’t told the world yet deserves to see someone who looks like their future. I’ll be proud to carry that banner. Primary tomorrow. June 23.

A Maryland State Senator told me to go where I could reach the most voters. This morning I went with a family to an ICE check-in instead. Because they needed me. Because no one else answered. You go where you are most needed. That’s why I’m running.

Frederick County needs new energy on the Council and on the Board of Education. Christian Benford and Casey Day bring exactly that. Out knocking doors today because local elections decide what Frederick looks like tomorrow. #Maryland #MD06 #EthanforMD

Garrett County DCC Roosevelt-Kennedy Dinner — Proud Democrats under open skies, and the one question I’m bringing to the table tonight: who are we building for? Roosevelt had one. Kennedy had one. So will I. #Maryland #EthanForMD #MD06

MoCo needs someone cool under pressure on its Council. Dr. Prabu Selvam is an ER doctor, veteran, a public school product, and the son of immigrants who built their lives here. He's lived these challenges. That's who I want solving them. I'm proud to endorse him for County Council At-Large.

He owns the platform. He owns the AI. He asked the AI to fact-check me on his own platform. The AI said I’m right. 1M+ people now know Congress is quietly making it near impossible for a future president to pull back intelligence sharing with Israel. Didn’t plan it this way, but I’ll take it.

Cumberland — today. Stop 4 of the Open Book Tour. Western Maryland is part of MD-06 — and the people out here deserve a representative who actually shows up. So I’m showing up. Come for 5 minutes or stay the whole time. 🗓️ Today, 4:00 – 5:30 PM 📍 South Cumberland Branch Library, 100 Seymour St

The people of this district deserve a representative who won’t hide from accountability, who will answer the tough questions, and who won’t make it all about them. That’s why I’m running. I’m not asking for your trust. I’m asking you to hold me to it.

I’m bisexual. Coming out changed everything — I finally got to be myself. But that freedom is under attack. Our community is losing rights in real time. I won’t go quiet. I’m running for Congress to fight back. Happy Pride. We’re not done yet. 🏳️‍🌈

Honored to earn the endorsement of CAIR Action. MD-06’s Muslim community deserves a representative who shows up — and not just at election time. I’ve been here. I’ll keep being here.

Last night someone asked me how we bring younger voters back into politics. I said: start by actually listening to them — and making them believe their voice matters. Then I got this alert. Voters under 45 broke hard for Massie. The party establishment backed someone else. Massie lost.

Six town halls. Six libraries. Six chances to ask me anything across MD-06. The Open Book Tour starts May 16 in Boonsboro — pinch to zoom on the dates, I won’t judge. No pre-screened questions, no spin, no RSVP. More on each stop as we get closer. #Maryland #MD06 #CommunityFirst #FightingForYou

Had an incredible time at the My Future Forum tonight! So many great elected officials, candidates, friends old and new — and students who absolutely ran the show. The absence of certain candidates was absolutely noticed. #Maryland #MD06 #CommunityFirst #FightingForYou #EthanforMD

The contrast in MD-06 isn't subtle. Medicare for All. PRO Act. Wealth tax. Abolishing ICE. Blocking the bombs. Trone had three terms to support any of it. He didn't. June 23 is your chance to send someone who will. #MD06 #Maryland #CommunityFirst #FightingForYou #EthanforMD

In January 2024, the U.S. Office of Special Counsel received a formal complaint: McClain-Delaney was allegedly using her position at the Department of Commerce to lay groundwork for her campaign. This is not speculation on my part. I have the letter.

I support the full PRO Act, repeal of 14(b), and ending union-busting. The people who build this country deserve a Congress that actually has their back. #MayDay #WorkersDay #MD06

Garrett County, you were worth every mile. Met with the Garrett County DCC and then joined neighbors for a Town Hall at the Oakland Community Center for a real conversation about what’s at stake in MD-06. More of this. A lot more. #Maryland #MD06 #CommunityFirst #FightingForYou #EthanforMD

Proud to have Reproductive Justice Maryland in our corner. When reproductive freedom is under attack at every level, MD-06 needs a rep who won't flinch. That's why I'm running.

On 3/19, I posted a thread on elder care. The Medicare myth bankrupting families. Medicaid spend-down. And plenty more Today, elder care showed up in an opponent's video. One sentence. Bundled with pre-K. MD-06 deserves someone who's already done the homework. 👇 bit.ly/41JrBee

Garrett County, I'm coming to you! Join me Monday April 27 at Oakland Community Center (14 N 8th St) from 5:30–6:30 pm. Let's talk about what MD-06 actually needs — no PAC money, no BS. Just real conversation. RSVP: actionnetwork.org/events/garrett-co…

Proud to earn the endorsement of Our Revolution, Montgomery County, MD — a grassroots organization that's been in the fight for working families long before it was convenient. No corporate PACs. No shortcuts. Just accountability. #MD06 #Maryland
