Larry Hogan is the first governor in MD history to have made millions while in office. Amazingly, nearly 40% of all affordable housing awards Hogan’s team approved went to six clients of his own real estate firm, from which he never divested. What’s going on here?
Over Larry Hogan’s eight years in office, nearly 40% of the competitive affordable housing awards overseen by the governor went to developers listed as clients on HOGAN’s website, according to a TIME review of public records time.com/7081664/exclusive-a…

For years reporters always call him “popular Larry Hogan” — my bet was the people who liked him best were the clients of his firm he enabled to make millions. This never should have happened. time.com/7081664/exclusive-a…

You may wonder - who is paying for all those annoying and deceptive ads opposing @AngelaAlsobrooks? I looked it up. "Maryland's Future" funded by out of state MAGA Republican $$$ is flooding our platforms. It is a deceptive effort to boost Larry Hogan.

A vote for Hogan is a vote for Mitch McConnell’s agenda.
Birds of a feather do flock together, and Larry Hogan is no exception. As a lifelong Republican, he supports a party known for its extreme views since he was a kid. As we approach this pivotal election, remember that the future of our Senate, and our values are at stake.

We must elect leaders who will restore the right to safe and accessible abortions nationwide.

Let’s not forget that people of all genders rely on access to reproductive rights including abortions. Language matters - especially when we are talking about healthcare and bodily autonomy!

Today I had the privilege of speaking in support of bills HB 503 and SB 586- a bill that will make our buildings safer through strong CSST standards. Thank you to @BenBrooksSr and @DelDanaStein for leading the charge on these critical bills.

Thank you for your incredible and consistent leadership on this!
I’m so proud to have the SUPPORT of county & city leaders all across the state for Just Cause Eviction - HB 477! The bill authorizes counties & Baltimore City to enact just cause provisions that require landlords to provide a reason when they choose not to renew a lease.

So, no shock that @jessfitzwater was a great guest (and a good sport), but this is a must-listen on content- really interesting and timely policy dilemma. #MDpolitics #MDGA24

A highlight of this briefing was Michael Sanderson coining the phrase “political paleontology.” Incredible! No notes.
Today the #MDGA24 House #Appropriations Committee will discuss the State Transportation Program - see this @MDCounties article that breaks down the looming cutbacks and their effect on local services. Local leaders and professionals will be there to discuss service effects.
