Issue Position: Maryland's Budget

Issue Position

Cheryl Kagan is a firm believer that government can and must be a force for good in our communities, but we have a responsibility to see to it that public resources are managed wisely. Especially in a time of economic uncertainty and strapped budgets, taxpayer dollars should be allocated in a thoughtful, accountable, and transparent manner.

Cheryl voted for balanced budgets every year and fought wasteful spending as a representative in the House of Delegates.
Cheryl's leadership and financial management as the first-ever Executive Director of the Carl M. Freeman Foundation allowed the organization to contribute over $1,000,000 each year to deserving nonprofits.
As State Senator, Cheryl will make sure that tax dollars are carefully spent, so that we have funding available for important priorities like education, transportation, and the environment.
