Congresswoman April McClain Delaney Releases Statement on H.R. 28
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congresswoman April McClain Delaney (MD-06) released a statement on her vote on H.R. 28:
Washington D.C. – Today, Congresswoman April McClain Delaney (MD-06) officially took the oath of office as a member of the 119th Congress, representing Maryland’s 6th Congressional District, which includes all or parts of Montgomery, Frederick, Washington, Allegany, and Garrett Counties.
Freshman Rep. April McClain-Delaney (D-6th) might not need as much orientation as the other newcomers: Her husband, John Delaney, represented the 6th District for three terms, from 2013 to 2019. He was on hand Friday as she headed to the House for her swearing-in.
Maryland's congressional delegation went from having no women to having three. Rep. April McClain Delaney represents the 6th Congressional District; Rep. Sarah Elfreth represents the 3rd District.

“I do think that women focus on a lot of the issues that are important to families – the economy, affordable daycare – and a lot of the different issues that I think we haven't made progress against but we really need to,” McClain Delaney said.
All of Maryland’s incoming House class, including Johnny Olszewski Jr., April McClain Delaney and Sarah Elfreth, are Democrats who believe they can bridge the gap between Republicans, though Olszewski and Delaney told The Baltimore Banner they’d prefer to see Democratic minority leader Hakeem Jeffries in the House’s top seat.

Delaney believes she can bridge the fissure between Democrats and Republicans with her “common sense, common ground” mindset.
