Another contender for Maryland's 3rd congressional district announced their run today.
Harry Dunn, a former U.S. Capitol Police officer, announced on Friday that he will seek the Democratic nomination to fill Rep. John Sarbanes seat.
Sarbanes announced last year that he would not seek re-election.
Dunn was a U.S. Capitol Police officer on January 6th, 2021, and defended the Capitol against an attempted insurrection.
“On January 6th, 2021, I did my duty as a police officer and as an American and defended our nation’s Capitol from violent insurrectionists," said Dunn in a news release announcing his campaign. "Today, I’m running for Congress because the forces that spurred that violent attack are still at work and as a patriotic American, it is my duty to defend our democracy."
Several others have already entered the race, including state lawmakers.
