Tom Kelso emphasizes continued commitment to Maryland Stadium Authority until his removal

In his first public comments since Gov. Wes Moore announced the decision to rescind Tom Kelso’s appointment as the chairman of the Maryland Stadium Authority, Kelso said he understood the decision and will continue working as long as necessary through the transition. “I respect Gov. Moore’s decision to name the chair of his choosing, and I am committed to continuing my work until the governor has named a new chair and the nominee is confirmed by the Senate,” Kelso said in a statement Sunday. “Once my successor is confirmed, I will work diligently through the transition to ensure our longstanding partnerships, including those with the Baltimore Orioles, Baltimore Ravens, Baltimore City Public Schools and others remain strong and the great work of the MSA continues.”
