Common Cause Maryland, the League of Women Voters of Maryland, Maryland PIRG and ACLU of Maryland today urged Governor Larry Hogan and the Maryland Board of Elections to implement changes before the delayed 2020 Presidential Primary and the 7th Congressional District special election.

Common Cause Maryland, Maryland PIRG and dozens of other organizations today sent a letter to House Speaker Adrienne A. Jones and Senate President Bill Ferguson, urging the General Assembly to recess rather than continue operating with only limited input from the public and advocacy organizations.

Voters, City Council and Mayor have all supported the fair campaign finance program, now the City Council will vote on funding it.

The bill would update the campaign finance system for Governor, Attorney General and Comptroller to be inline with local small donor public financing programs.
