Last night, the Approps Committee advanced the FY23 Interior, Environment and Related Agencies funding bill, incl. a record $92M for the Chesapeake Bay.

Yesterday I stopped by the @BoozAllen 5G lab in #MD02, where I saw firsthand their commitment to innovating + investing in the hardware + talent necessary to being an industry leader in 5G security.

Today, we lost a true patriot. General Colin Powell dedicated his life to serving our country. He was an extraordinary leader and trailblazer whose love of county was always evident, whether in uniform or out. My deepest condolences to his wife, Alma, and their family.
