I enjoyed spending time with high school juniors and seniors in the Elijah Cummings Youth Program (ECYP). Thank you, Kathleen St. Villier Hill, Executive Director and Liza Koh, Program Director, for helping to prepare students in Maryland’s 7th district to become future leaders.

I’m proud to be an original co-sponsor of the Stem Cell Therapeutic and Research Reauthorization Act of 2025.

25 years ago today, Americans stood paralyzed as we watched 2,753 people in New York City, 184 people at The Pentagon, 40 people in Shanksville, PA, and 246 passengers and crew lose their lives at the hands of terrorist murderers who sought to destroy us at our core.
