Sen. Ben Cardin’s retirement opens Senate seat in Maryland
“I am proud of all I have done for Maryland,” Mr. Cardin, 79, said. “I have given my heart and soul to our great state, and I thank Marylanders for trusting me as your representative for all these years.”
“I will continue to travel around the state, listening to Marylanders and responding to their needs,” he said. “My top priorities include continuing our progress for the Chesapeake Bay, helping the people of Baltimore City deal with the challenges they face, and permanently expanding opportunities for telehealth, mental and behavioral health.”
The National Republican Senatorial Committee was quick to paint Mr. Cardin’s exit as a consequence of the difficult political map facing Democrats in 2024 as they try to keep their slim 51-seat majority within the Senate. While the balance of power is up for grabs in the Senate, Democrats don’t expect any trouble holding onto Maryland. President Biden won the state by more than 33 percentage points in 2020.
