For 55 years, Reverend Cleoda “Mama Cleo” Walker has treated service to others as a calling that extends far beyond the church walls.
She has preached, mentored young people, supported violence interruption work, organized, advocated, and cared for generations of Cherry Hill neighbors.
It was an honor to celebrate her retirement with the community she has given so much to and present her with a Senate resolution recognizing 55 years of ministry and service.
Retirement may mark the end of one chapter, but anyone who knows Mama Cleo knows her ministry to Cherry Hill isn’t ending.

Where a statue of Roger B. Taney once stood on the grounds of the Maryland State House, a new monument now honors the Black Marylanders who helped fight for our nation's independence.
Sunday's unveiling of The Pursuit of Transcendent Liberty was an important moment for Maryland, especially on the anniversary of our state's abolition of slavery. Created by sculptor Branly Cadet, this monument honors those who fought for freedoms they were themselves denied.
The history we choose to commemorate matters. I'm proud that future generations visiting our State House will encounter this story of courage, service, and the long struggle for freedom.

Senator Antonio Hayes writes about what it means to lead the Senate Finance Committee as a son of West Baltimore, the leaders who helped pave the way, and the responsibility that comes with making decisions that affect families across Maryland.
I especially appreciated his reflections on Senator Delores Kelley, someone I learned so much from during my early years in the Senate, and his recognition that behind every policy decision are real people whose lives are affected.
I’m proud to have @AntonioHayes40 leading the Finance Committee and look forward to the work ahead.
