Sens. Cardin And Van Hollen Tout $1.5M Investment In Three West Baltimore Projects

Sens. Ben Cardin and Chris Van Hollen appeared in West Baltimore on Friday to tout $1.5 million in federal funding for three community projects, including plans to turn the former segregated school U.S. Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall attended as a child into a community hub and legal center. The effort to restore P.S. 103, also known as the Henry Highland Garnet School, has received $1 million. Rev. Dr. Alvin C. Hathaway Sr. said the funding would allow organizers to break ground on July 2, Marshall’s birthday.
