Fee Increases Could Be On the Way in Maryland

Marylanders could see higher costs for goods and services following state delegates’ approval of a $1.3 billion budget and a companion bill that mandates increases for ride-sharing and food delivery services. The legislative measures include additional fees for Uber, Lyft, and food delivery services like DoorDash. Throughout the legislative session, Maryland faced a budget dilemma, with lawmakers expressing that the proposed budget fails to meet the House, Senate, and Governor’s priorities.
