The economic security of all Marylanders is one of my top priorities in Annapolis. I have sat in the living rooms of countless families in our community and listened to their challenges and triumphs. I am a sponsor of legislation to raise the state minimum wage, and helped champion the passage of earned sick leave. I believe that a livable wage and resources to support a standard of living are the right of every resident. By bringing the county and state together, we can create high-quality jobs that enable working people to support themselves and their families, and increase access to affordable child care and housing.
