As the son of a Cheverly, Maryland public school teacher, David has witnessed the value of a strong education firsthand throughout his entire life.
After taking out student loans for his graduate degree, he started a small business while in school to continue supporting his family. In Congress, he’s championed efforts to provide that same quality of education to students nationwide.
David has:
- Worked with Senator Cardin to introduce legislation expanding the Blueprint for Maryland’s Future into a nationwide education initiative.
- Provided millions in federal funding to higher education institutions in the 6th District for workforce development, STEM education, and campus development.
- Written and passed legislation to provide Pell Grants to justice-impacted individuals.
Back in Congress, David will continue working to ensure the best access, quality, and affordability of education for our students.
