Our Platform

Common Sense Over Chaos.

MD-01 should be affordable for the people who built it, not just wealthy second-home owners. Here's what we're working toward together.

Empty hospital corridor
Healthcare

Put the care back in healthcare.

2½ hrs
Drive to a specialist from the Eastern Shore
9 of 11
MD-01 counties are medically underserved
15 yrs
Andy Harris in Congress. Hospitals are closing.

The Problem

  • If you need a specialist on the Eastern Shore, you might be looking at a 2½ hour drive to Baltimore. People are losing their lives on the way there.
  • Caroline County. Somerset County. These are places where lives are lost just trying to get help.
  • Black women especially are treated like they're invisible when they walk into a hospital. Like their pain doesn't matter. We treat people like human beings.
  • They make healthcare confusing on purpose. All the jargon, all the fine print. It's designed to keep you from knowing what you're owed.

Harris's Record

  • Private equity firms are buying up our regional hospitals, mining them for profit, and shutting the doors permanently.
  • Andy Harris has been in Congress 15 years and our hospitals are closing. He's not fighting for your healthcare. He's not fighting for you at all.

What Randi Will Do

  • Bring the Shore's fair share of federal funding home. Go to bat for it where Andy never has and never will.
  • Bring specialists to the counties that need them through federal grants.
  • Stop private equity from gutting our hospitals.
  • Protect the subsidies keeping your premiums from doubling overnight.

“You deserve a doctor you can get to. You deserve a hospital that stays open. You deserve to be treated like a human being when you walk through those doors. All of us do.”

Education

How effective your children's schools are shouldn't be based on your zip code.

18M
Kids will lose free school meals under the Big Beautiful Bill
$186B
Cut from SNAP over ten years. Harris voted "present."

The Problem

  • Our kids deserve better and Andy Harris hasn't fought for a single dollar of the federal funding we're owed.
  • With the highest food insecurity rates in the state, kids on the Lower Shore are showing up to school hungry. You can't learn on an empty stomach.
  • Teachers are paying out of pocket to run their own classrooms.
  • Kids with IEPs and 504 plans aren't getting the support they need. Every child, every ability, every school.

Harris's Record

  • Andy Harris didn't even have the courage to vote yes or no on the Big Beautiful Bill. He voted "present." Then he spent the summer defending a law that cuts $186 billion from SNAP and takes free school meals away from 18 million kids. On the Lower Shore, where food insecurity is already the worst in the state, that means kids going hungry at school. Andy did that.
  • He hasn't gone to bat for our schools in 15 years of Congress. Not for funding, not for teachers, not for your kids. They ripped the US Department of Education apart. We have to put it back together.

What Randi Will Do

  • Fight for our fair share of federal funding to fix our schools, secure them, pay our teachers, and feed our kids.
  • Make a real path to affordable higher education, whether that's trade school or college.
  • Proper training, better compensation, and real support for teachers.
  • Make sure kids of all abilities get the resources they're promised.

“Your kids deserve schools that work. Your teachers deserve to be paid like they matter. And no child should be hungry at school. Not here. Not anywhere.”

Person shopping in a grocery store
Cost of Living

You work full-time and still can't afford groceries. The system is robbing you blind.

21,000
Federal workers at Aberdeen had their jobs ripped away
40 min
Drive to the nearest grocery store in parts of the Shore
15 yrs
Harris in Congress. Your grocery bill keeps climbing.

The Problem

  • Your paycheck buys less every month. Groceries, gas, rent. It all goes up and wages don't keep pace.
  • There are places in this district where the nearest grocery store is 30, 40 minutes away. You're paying more and driving further just to feed your family.
  • 21,000 federal workers at Aberdeen Proving Ground and across the district had their jobs ripped away. That's 21,000 families in Harford County who don't know how they're paying the mortgage next month.
  • Small businesses on the Shore are struggling while corporations post record profits.

Harris's Record

  • Corporations are gouging you on groceries and essentials, then funneling profits to shareholders instead of employees or customers. They exploit loopholes, dodge accountability, and consolidate into monopolies so you have no choice but to pay whatever they charge.
  • Andy Harris voted against the infrastructure bill, then showed up for the ribbon cutting. He takes credit for things he tried to kill. Fifteen years in Congress and your grocery bill keeps climbing.

What Randi Will Do

  • Fight for federal workers to get their jobs back. All 21,000 of them.
  • Push for new industries on the Shore. Secure federal funding for clean energy jobs that pay well and stay local.
  • Support small businesses with real grants, real advertising of those grants, and real follow-through. Especially minority-owned businesses that have been locked out.
  • Protect union jobs and the right to organize. Your right to bargain for better pay and benefits is your right to thrive.
  • Hold corporations accountable for price gouging. Break up monopolies. Put employees and customers first, not shareholders.
  • Get groceries closer to the people who need them. No one should drive 40 minutes to buy food.

“You work full-time and still can't afford groceries. And they want you to think that's your fault. It's not. The system is robbing you blind. We're fighting to take it back.”

Man looking out over the Chesapeake Bay waterfront
The Bay

The Bay isn't just pretty. It's how people feed their families.

2%
Andy Harris's lifetime environmental score
$31M
Blue crab harvest value, down from $50M in 2008
24,000
Jobs depend on the Chesapeake Bay economy

The Problem

  • Watermen are watching their livelihoods disappear. Blue crab harvests are worth $31 million today, down from $50 million in 2008. When the Bay suffers, we suffer.
  • PFAS, forever chemicals, are showing up in our blue crabs, our oysters, our striped bass. You're catching dinner out of water that corporations have been poisoning for decades. Nobody's telling you that, right?
  • Andy Harris sits on the Water Resources and Environment subcommittee. The committee literally responsible for the Bay. His lifetime environmental score is 2%. His 2025 score? Zero.

Harris's Record

  • Andy Harris voted against $844 million in water infrastructure funding for Maryland. Then he went to Dorchester County and held a press conference taking credit for Slaughter Creek dredging that was paid for by the bill he voted against. The Baltimore Sun called him a "Hall of Fame Hypocrite."
  • He tried to kill two approved wind farm projects off Ocean City. When a whale washed ashore at Assateague, he blamed offshore wind with zero evidence. He's called for more coal and natural gas while the Bay chokes.

What Randi Will Do

  • Fight for real federal funding for Bay restoration and hold corporate polluters accountable. The people dumping PFAS into our waterways pay the cleanup bill, not taxpayers.
  • Protect watermen and the fishing industry. This is our heritage and our economy. Nearly $600 million a year flows through Maryland's seafood industry.
  • Work with family farmers to prevent poultry runoff. They can farm in a better way. We help them get there.
  • Support clean energy jobs on the Shore. Wind, solar, the Bay economy. Jobs that pay well and stay local.
  • Make sure federal clean water funding reaches every neighborhood, including the Black and Hispanic communities that have been treated as dumping grounds for decades.
  • Actually use her seat on the committees that matter for the Bay instead of scoring zero on the scorecard.

“The Bay raised us. It fed our families. It's our responsibility to fight for it. And we need someone in Congress who actually will.”

Zero
Abortion clinics on the entire Eastern Shore offering in-clinic procedures
65%
Higher risk of severe complications for Black women in MD
20 yrs
Harris has been trying to control your body since the MD State Senate

The Problem

  • There is no abortion clinic on the entire Eastern Shore that offers in-clinic procedures. If you need that care, you're driving hours.
  • Black women in Maryland face 65% higher odds of severe complications during pregnancy and childbirth. In rural counties with barely 2 doctors per 10,000 people, that's a life-threatening gap.
  • Andy Harris co-chairs the Pro-Life Caucus in Congress. He cosponsored the Life at Conception Act, a total federal ban with no exceptions for rape, incest, or the health of the mother.
  • He voted against codifying Roe. He voted against protecting patients who travel across state lines for care. He voted against protecting your right to contraception.

Harris's Record

  • Andy Harris cosponsored a total federal abortion ban. He supported a 6-week ban. He signed onto a brief trying to revoke FDA approval of the abortion pill. He's been trying to control your body since he was in the Maryland State Senate.
  • He's been against emergency contraception without a prescription since 2006. Twenty years of trying to make it harder for you to make your own decisions.

What Randi Will Do

  • Codify the right to reproductive healthcare at the federal level.
  • Protect access to contraception.
  • Fight for advanced, comprehensive maternal healthcare on the Shore. You shouldn't have to drive two hours to get proper prenatal care in a county with two doctors.
  • Protect patients and providers. No one should be criminalized for seeking or providing healthcare.

“Freedom means you get to decide what happens to your own body. That should be simple. We're going to make sure it stays that way.”

LGBTQ+ Equality

You live here. You work here. You pay taxes here. You deserve the same protections as everyone else.

14th
Most anti-equality member of Congress, out of 435
39
House Republicans voted for marriage equality. Harris refused.

The Problem

  • In 2023, Andy Harris compared funding an LGBTQ community center to funding the Ku Klux Klan. Said it on the record, in committee.
  • He voted against the Equality Act, which would have added gender identity and sexual orientation to federal anti-discrimination laws. He voted against the Respect for Marriage Act. 39 other House Republicans voted for it. Andy Harris wasn't one of them.
  • In 2001, he ran a 2-hour filibuster in the Maryland Senate to block a bill protecting same-sex couples from discrimination. He's been at this for decades.
  • The Human Rights Campaign named him one of the 14 most anti-equality members of Congress. Out of 435.

Harris's Record

  • 39 Republicans voted to protect marriage equality. Harris chose not to. He's voted to strip LGBTQ community funding, pushed anti-trans sports legislation, and tried to amend anti-discrimination bills to create religious exemptions. Every chance he gets, he votes against your neighbors.

What Randi Will Do

  • Support the Equality Act. Full federal protections against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. In housing, employment, public services. Everywhere.
  • Protect marriage equality at the federal level.
  • Fight against legislation targeting trans youth. They want you angry about trans kids so you don't notice they're picking your pocket. We see through it.
  • Stand up for LGBTQ+ people in MD-01. You live here. You work here. You belong here.

“We take care of each other. All of us means all of us.”

Democracy & Voting Rights

Andy Harris tried to throw out your vote. Now he wants to make it harder for you to cast one.

25,000
Maryland federal jobs gutted by this administration. Harris cheered.
43 days
Longest government shutdown in American history. Fall 2025.
$186B
Cut from SNAP in the Big Beautiful Bill. 18M kids lose meals.

The Problem

  • This administration gutted 25,000 federal jobs in Maryland. Aberdeen Proving Ground, Fort Meade, NIH. Harris called it "efficiency." Those are your neighbors' paychecks.
  • The government shut down for 43 days in fall 2025. Longest shutdown in American history. SNAP benefits got cut off. A federal judge had to order them reinstated.
  • The Big Beautiful Bill cut $186 billion from SNAP over ten years. 18 million kids will lose free school meals. Harris voted "present." He couldn't even vote no.
  • The SAVE Act would require a passport or birth certificate to register to vote. 146 million Americans don't have a valid passport. If you don't have a college degree, there's a 75% chance you don't have one. This bill would eliminate online voter registration, mail-in registration, and voter registration drives.

Harris's Record

  • Harris chairs the Freedom Caucus. He helped force the shutdown. He pushed the SAVE Act. He celebrated the federal layoffs. Now a draft executive order is circulating among his allies to seize control of election mechanics before November.
  • On January 6th, after police officers were beaten, after people died, he still voted to throw out Arizona and Pennsylvania. He'd attended the December 21st White House planning meeting. He said he'd "take the invitation again."
  • He voted against giving the Congressional Gold Medal to the Capitol Police officers who defended the building that day. One of only 21 members to vote no. The officers who protected him.

What Randi Will Do

  • Protect your right to vote. You're a citizen, you vote. Full stop.
  • Pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Congress let it die. We bring it back.
  • Fight to restore the 25,000 federal jobs this administration gutted in our district.
  • Hold everyone who tried to overturn the 2020 election accountable. Including Andy Harris.
  • Make sure every eligible voter in MD-01 can register and cast their ballot without obstacles.
  • Protect immigrant families in our district. ICE raids are designed to make people afraid, not make communities safer. We stand with our neighbors.

“He tried to overturn your vote. Now he wants to make it harder for you to cast one. We're not going to let that happen.”

Follow the Money

Andy Harris doesn't work for you. He works for whoever writes the check.

  • Every election cycle, Andy Harris takes hundreds of thousands from corporate PACs. Pharmaceutical companies, the gun lobby, Big Ag. Then he votes however they tell him.
  • Pharma PACs fund Harris. He votes against lowering prescription costs. Fossil fuel PACs fund Harris. He votes against protecting the Bay. NRA PACs fund Harris. He votes against gun safety. See the pattern?
  • Citizens United lets corporations spend unlimited money on elections. Andy Harris has never lifted a finger to change it.
  • After January 6th, corporate PACs stopped donating to election objectors. That lasted about six months. Then the checks started flowing again.

What Randi Will Do

  • Reject corporate PAC money. We already do. Every dollar we raise comes from real people. Check our FEC filings.
  • Fight to overturn Citizens United. Our elections shouldn't be for sale.
  • Support a real ban on congressional stock trading.
  • Close the revolving door. You serve the public, then you go home.

“We funded this campaign with $5 and $10 donations from neighbors. Andy Harris funded his with corporate PAC checks. That tells you who we each work for.”

NRA money to Harris since 2008. Only MD member who takes it.
#1
Somerset County: highest rate of red flag orders per capita in the state

The Problem

  • Andy Harris is the only Maryland member of Congress who takes NRA money. $25,000 and counting since 2008. He votes against gun safety legislation every single time.
  • Two weeks after January 6th, Harris tried to bring a concealed handgun onto the House floor. Set off the metal detector. Asked another congressman to hold it for him. The other congressman refused. Capitol Police opened an investigation.
  • He voted against the assault weapons ban. Voted against background checks. Voted for forcing every state to accept other states' concealed carry permits. He called for eliminating gun-free zones at schools, saying that's what causes school shootings.
  • In 2018, at a town hall, Harris said "gun violence doesn't happen on the Eastern or Western Shore of Maryland." Tell that to the families on the Shore dealing with suicide, domestic violence, and the reality that the nearest mental health provider is an hour away.
  • Somerset County has the highest rate of red flag protection orders per capita in the entire state. People here are already using these tools to save lives. Harris votes against them.

Harris's Record

  • Andy Harris takes the NRA's money and votes however they tell him. He compared background checks to Nazi Germany. He's called for arming teachers. And he said gun violence doesn't happen where we live.
  • The gun lobby isn't protecting hunters. They're protecting the corporations that sell weapons of war and blocking every commonsense measure that would save lives.

What Randi Will Do

  • Support universal background checks and an assault weapons ban. Common sense.
  • Protect and expand red flag laws. Somerset County is already proving they work. Let's make sure every county has the tools and funding to use them.
  • Invest in mental health access on the Shore. Gun violence in rural communities looks different. It's suicide. It's domestic violence. And when the nearest provider is an hour away, people fall through the cracks. Gun safety and healthcare access are the same fight.
  • Reject NRA money. Every dollar. Always.

“This isn't about hunting. We're a community that knows guns and takes responsibility. This is about making sure your kid comes home from school. Common sense keeps us safe. Andy Harris votes against it every time.”
