MAP OF DISTRICT 22
Meet Majority Whip Ashanti Martinez
"I was raised in New Carrollton, attended school at St. Mary's Landover Hills, and graduated from Parkdale High School. I know the challenges and triumphs our community has faced."
Throughout my career as a Nonprofit Lobbyist, Legislative Staffer, and Community Advocate, I’ve brought people together to deliver results. As House Majority Whip, I represent all members of our community, fight economic and housing inequality, support green policies, protect our neighborhoods from Trump and ICE while delivering results for our district. I bring that style of leadership to Annapolis - and I will always have your back!
