We couldn’t do the work of the people without our talented team of clerks and staff in the Amendment Office.
Bagels are just a small token of appreciation for their work behind the scenes to get us through Crossover and as fuel for the final push through the end of session.

Another big week in the House with Maryland retaining its AAA bond rating and ✓Cannabis Reform ✓Reproductive Rights and the ✓Family Prosperity Act passing the House.
We're getting things done and doing them right.
We’ve compiled the best legal cannabis practices from other states, learned lessons from medical cannabis and created an equitable implementation framework.
The House passed one of the best models for recreational cannabis in the country. Let's get it across the finish line.
House Bill 556 has PASSED the House!
It will create a framework for Maryland's new legal cannabis program that will help curb black market sales and puts equity at the center of licensing, taxation, and regulation.
Once again, the House has passed, by an overwhelming majority, my bill to enshrine reproductive rights in Maryland’s constitution.
Regardless of what other states do, we will unequivocally be a state that supports the right to reproductive freedom. #ReproductiveRights
Together, we’re expanding our most effective tool for fighting poverty and ensuring that Marylanders most in need have a chance to succeed.
The Family Prosperity Act has passed in the House. I’m grateful for @GovWesMoore’s work together to permanently expand Maryland’s EITC which is among the highest in the nation.
House Bill 547, @GovWesMoore's Family Prosperity Act, PASSED in the House.
It will permanently expand Maryland’s earned income tax credit, which is among the highest in the nation, and ensure that no one gets left behind.

The MGA’s long history of fiscal responsibility and the Treasurer’s strong stewardship and investments continue to make Maryland’s economy competitive, thriving and where businesses, workers and families can achieve financial success.
