October 26th would have been Paul Farmer's 63rd birthday. No words do him justice; he is without peer. The only words that come close are: love, compassion, equity and justice; that is what he wanted for the world and for us. World Journal of Surgery HarvardGlobalSurgery

During my visit to Coppin State University, a student asked me what my values are.
My values are the same thing I learned when I joined the Army at 17:
Leave no one behind.
And if we’re successful, that won’t just be my values – it will be the new mission for the state of Maryland.
Horrified to read this Joseph Sakran. You & I often talk about gun violence as a public health issue. Seeing it enter the emergency room only reinforces that. I sadly am not surprised that this happened in Texas. GUN SAFETY IS ON THE BALLOT! VOTE LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!
Great afternoon Charleston Democrats Blue Jamboree. Gracie was VERY excited to meet Jaime Harrison, DNC Chair and to get a chance to chat with SC’s next Governor Joe Cunningham. Also I had the pleasure of meeting Ro Khanna and Jonathan Jackson For Congress.
Democrats are fired up!🔥🔥
Led a letter with Congresswoman Madeleine Dean to Visa, Mastercard, and American Express in support of the new Merchant Category Code (MCC) for firearms and munitions retailers. They’ll now be able to better flag transactions for likely straw purchasing of firearms.
Counting down until tomorrow…. Please join us at the Mystic Film Festival tomorrow, 10/23/22 at 11:30 AM at the United Theatre. For more information visit, mysticfilmfestival2022.eventive.org/films/630cfda9…
I’m excited to invite you to join Hillary Clinton and me for a conversation on leadership on Tuesday evening.
The stakes of this election could not be higher. We’re united to move Maryland forward and to deliver the leadership families deserve.

A merchant category code (MCC) can assist credit card companies in flagging suspicious firearms and ammunition purchases.
Thank you to Rep. Mike Thompson, Congresswoman Madeleine Dean, and the 100+ representatives for this letter supporting this lifesaving solution to prevent gun violence.
