The promise and potential pitfalls of the next four years in Annapolis were on dramatic display Thursday night, when six progressive members of the General Assembly spoke virtually to a left-wing advocacy group. All six lawmakers — Sens. Jill Carter (D-Baltimore City) and Paul Pinsky (D-Prince George’s) and Dels. Gabriel Acevero (D-Montgomery), Julie Palakovich Carr (D-Montgomery), Sheila Ruth (D-Baltimore County) and Vaughn Stewart (D-Montgomery) — said they were excited and intrigued by the prospect of working with a Democratic governor for the first time after eight years of Republican Gov. Larry Hogan.
