Governor Wes Moore speaks on Maryland's recovery efforts following the Key Bridge collapse, highlighting the swift reopening of the Federal Channel which protected port workers' jobs, supported small businesses, and stabilized the supply chain.

He credits the Biden-Harris administration for helping maintain low unemployment rates, increasing wages, and addressing the racial wealth gap through education and entrepreneurship.

Moore also shares he is endorsing Angela Alsobrooks for Senator, contrasting her achievements with the previous governors, particularly in crime reduction and reproductive rights.

He also notes the reduction in Baltimore's homicides, attributing it to comprehensive strategies, including victims' compensation and the use of federal resources.
