WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD) voted against the President’s nominee for Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). She issued the following statement: “Project 2025 architect Russell Vought has no place being Director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought has made it clear he will slash federal funding and continue the witch hunt targeting our federal workers. “‘We want to put them in trauma’ is what Russell Vought has said about our civil servants.

WASHINGTON, DC – Senator Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD) joined SEIU President April Verrett, 1199 President George Gresham, and dozens of SEIU members on Capitol Hill today to rally against this Administration’s attacks on Medicaid. “Cuts to Medicaid would devastate so many Marylanders,” said Senator Alsobrooks. “It would disrupt care for 64% of nursing home residents in Maryland. The threats this Administration has made against Maryland families is shameful. I know I won’t stand for it, and I know the members of SEIU won’t stand for it. Together, we will protect Medicaid and fight for our workers.”

Last week, Head Start programs were temporarily unable to access the Payment Management System (PMS)
