Moore nominates six department heads, including secretary of the Department of Health

Maryland Gov.-elect Wes Moore (D) named five more department heads to his cabinet Thursday, with an eye toward making it the most diverse collection of top state officials ever. Moore, who is scheduled to be sworn into office Wednesday, announced the appointments of the secretaries of health, labor, human services, general services and juvenile services, with four out of the five being people of color and one of them an openly gay man. All of the appointees have some sort of government work experience.
