A LinkedIn post from me, that reads: "I don't post here a lot, so please indulge me. I'm not the journalist I am today without Towson University. And I'm not the *person* I am today with the Towson University Honors College. That's why today, during TU's annual "Big Give" fundraising event, I am proud to have committed a recurring gift to help fund the Honors College Alumni Growth Network Scholarship to fund scholarship support for Honors students at TU. If you're so inclined to give to Towson University today, the website is https://give.towson.edu/ — and if you're so inclined, I hope you'll consider designating your gift for the Honors College or the College of Fine Arts and Communication. Go Tigers!"
"I will be voting NO on the CR proposed today. "I have voted eight separate times to reopen the government. And each of those times, I voted for a CR that addresses the health care crisis Republicans have unleashed on working families across this country. "After weeks of refusing to negotiate, Senate Republicans have finally put forth a new CR that reaffirms their indifference to the health care crisis and growing unaffordability of our country. "As I look at this new CR, I am glad to see it includes language I fought for to reverse the draconian RIFS. "But, I have maintained from the beginning of this Republican shutdown that I could not vote for anything that does not address the rising health care costs.
"I have voted seven times for a responsible funding agreement to end the shameful Republican shutdown, hold the president accountable to the law, and prevent health care costs from skyrocketing for tens of millions of Americans. I am prepared to work toward a compromise, but this funding bill before us tonight does not come close to meeting those terms. Not only does it fail to address the impending explosion in working Americans' health insurance costs, it also lacks the necessary guardrails to stop President Trump from ignoring the law and withholding funds for important priorities. That is why I am voting NO.
