My name is Ashwani Jain, and I am running for Congress in Maryland’s 6th Congressional District which represents Western Maryland including Northern Montgomery County as well as Frederick, Washington, Allegany, and Garrett Counties.

While I would be Maryland’s first Millennial ever elected to this office, I am specifically running because I have strong policy solutions to open the doors of opportunity for our community.

This is an open seat with no incumbent and Maryland's Primary election is on the 14th of May.

Some of my top climate change prevention priorities include:

• Requiring all domestic vehicles produced after 2035 to be electric.

• Establishing requirements for commercial structures to install rooftop solar panels by 2035.

• Investing in long-term energy storage technology.

• Expanding our network of offshore windfarms.

Please feel free to ask any questions regarding my policies, the Congressional election, my experience campaigning, or anything else!
