Tax Polluters, Invest in Innovation to Clean Bay and Earth

Maryland’s more than 30-year efforts to repair the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries has taken time, resources, and a general commitment from the public. Even with our efforts, oysters, crabs, sturgeon, and rockfish populations remain terribly low compared to historic numbers. Pollution from Pennsylvania and New York continues to seep into our Bay without consequence. Bay water clarity has also not made it to desired levels.
