Great seeing Maryland's next Governor @iamwesmoore at the JCRC's annual Shmooze and Nosh.
The MD State Agency Transparency Act (HB 58) applies certain Open Meetings Act requirements including web streaming of mtgs to the State Ethics Commission. It has passed the House and the Senate version from @CherylKagan has passed that body. https://mgaleg.maryland.gov/mgawebsite/Legislation/Details/hb0058?ys=2023RS /3
Back with 4 of yesterday’s bills from Finance, including SB 862 from @CherylKagan, which like SB 639 last year, would ban the use of a very specific security question…: https://mgaleg.maryland.gov/mgawebsite/Legislation/Details/SB0862?ys=2023rs
By a vote of 37-9, the Senate has approved one of the @GovWesMoore Administration's priorities. A service year option will allow our young people to explore career options while engaging in our communities and building lifelong friendships! #CampaignPromise #MDGA23
Today SB129 passed second reader with no amendments. This will eliminate the spousal defense for sex crimes (yes that's still a thing in MD!)- Thanks @MCASAorg and @MLAW1994 for making this a priority and @CharCrutchfield for championing through the House! #session2023
Today I tried my hardest to keep up with @CherylKagan. Watched her, @Willcsmithjr & @SenArianaKelly present bills, and @BrianJFeldman preside over the EEE Committee meeting. When I was leaving at 4:30, another floor session was about to start! #IAmImpressed #grateful https://twitter.com/cherylkagan/status/1636443494280511498

Check out this video from the House this morning! I'm proud to support immigrants pursuing careers in health fields. HB454 allows qualified immigrants to apply for licensure while waiting for immigration approval so they can work in our communities the 1st day they federally can.
From July 19 to Aug. 24, canvassers for @777Vote counted and recounted votes to declare who would be @MontgomeryCoMD executive. That led @CherylKagan to create a package of eight bills to speed up the counting and election process.
It took 36 days after the 2022 primary election to declare incumbent Marc Elrich as the Democratic nominee for Montgomery County Executive.
@CherylKagan introduced a #MDGA23 election reform package designed to fix scenarios like this one.
