Great to be with you, @ubame.family!
Today I issued an executive order to establish the Maryland Department of Service and Civic Innovation. It will be the home of the Service Year Option, through which high school graduates will have the opportunity to serve their communities and their state, be paid for their work, and learn skills that will serve them in their futures. This department is going to channel the energy of Marylanders to solve our biggest problems. I’m proud of this historic Executive Order and look forward to nominating a Secretary in the coming days and getting to work.

I want you to see what I saw today as I was inaugurated as the 63rd governor of Maryland. This is our state in all its beauty. And this is who I’ll fight for every single day that I have the honor of being your governor.
My son James leading us in pledge of allegiance at my inauguration. James, your mother and I are so proud of you.
Leaving Government House to head to State House for inauguration.
Maryland, I am proud to be your governor. Together, we will build a state where we leave no one behind.
We begin inauguration day by gathering here at the Kunta Kinte-Alex Haley memorial in Annapolis to lay a wreath. It is here where two centuries ago, enslaved people arrived in this country against their will. Today I will be inaugurated as the first Black governor of Maryland on the steps of a state capitol built by their hands. Today is a testament to the fact that progress is not inevitable, but progress is possible. And as your governor I will work every single day to make Maryland the state that our ancestors hoped for and our children deserve.

Today I take the oath of office on two bibles: The bible of Frederick Douglass and the bible of my grandfather, Rev. James Thomas. They embody what it means to be a leader and what it means to be an American. As governor, I am committed to carrying on their legacies.

See you soon, Kenosha! But first, @culvers!
They say when you’re busy go to church. And, when you’re really busy, go twice. Cannan Baptist you gave me some spirit I’ll proudly carry back to Maryland with me. Thank you, and god bless you!

With the historic investments made in our budget, we plan to be bold without being reckless. This budget will impact every community in Maryland, and will put us on track to create a Maryland where no one is left behind. Learn more on the preliminary FY24 budget via the link in my bio.
