He also took an active part in the suppression of the Whiskey Insurrection in 1794. In 1794, Moore purchased a property north of Baltimore known as "Bosley's Adventure", a farm containing 350-acres located just north of the modern Lake Roland. The area in which his property was located is generally referred to as Ruxton-Riderwood, Maryland. Moore served as a member of the Maryland House of Delegates in 1801 and 1802. In 1803, he was elected as a Democratic-Republican to the Eighth and to the three succeeding Congresses, serving from March 4, 1803, to March 3, 1811. During that time he served as an at-large delegate from 1803 to 1807 and represented the 5th district from 1807 to 1811. In Congress, he served as chairman of the Committee on Accounts (Tenth and Eleventh Congresses). He was an unsuccessful candidate for reelection to the Twelfth Congress. Moore was later appointed lieutenant colonel commandant of the sixth regimental cavalry district of Maryland on February 20, 1812. In 1812, Moore was elected to the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Congresses and served from March 4, 1813, until his resignation in 1815 before the convening of the Fourteenth Congress. He again served as chairman of the Committee on Accounts (Thirteenth Congress). He died in Baltimore, and is interred in a private cemetery near Ruxton, Maryland. He was survived by his wife and four children.
