“Mandate For Moderation:” Governor Hogan Appears on CNN’s State of the Union​

Governor Hogan appeared on CNN’s State of the Union with Jake Tapper to discuss the path forward following the 2020 election. 

As Governor Hogan wrote in a Wall Street Journal op-ed [link removed], President-elect Biden’s victory can only be interpreted as a “mandate for moderation...not radical change.”  

“Pushing a far-left agenda would bitterly divide the country. It may be what the loudest voices in Mr. Biden’s party are demanding, but he wasn’t elected to divide and disrupt. He won the election because America is fed up with bitter partisanship, divisiveness and dysfunction.

Look at the results down the ballot. Despite suffering the first loss for an incumbent president since 1992, Republicans added a governorship in Montana, appear to have held the Senate majority, and even gained seats in the House. Americans wouldn’t vote for divided government if they wanted radical change.

…

We have a choice. We can either continue to perpetuate toxic politics, or we can work together to build a better future. We can either try to score points on social media, or we can come together to solve problems and make life better for all Americans. We can either move forward together, or we can continue to slide backward, divided. Now is the time to govern.”

Dr. Scott Gottlieb to President-Elect Biden: Look To Maryland “As A Model For Handling The Pandemic”​​

In a Wall Street Journal op-ed [link removed], former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb is pointing to states like Maryland and Massachusetts as “laboratories for COVID control” that the incoming Biden administration can seek to emulate.  

According to Dr. Gottlieb, Governor Hogan, “as chairman of the National Governors Association, helped create an interstate testing compact that pooled purchasing power across states and helped ensure supplies were apportioned equitably. Mr. Hogan...worked closely with leaders in low-income areas, where residents faced a disproportionate burden from the pandemic. He was also the first governor to send ‘strike teams’ into nursing homes, consisting of National Guard resources, public-health officials, and providers from local hospital systems. The goal of these efforts was to focus state resources into the communities most at risk from infection. Maryland’s strike teams became a model for other states.”

As COVID cases and hospitalizations rise throughout the country, Governor Hogan is continuing to provide proactive leadership in this crisis, warning [link removed] Marylanders in a press conference last week that although the state is prepared for a surge they cannot let their guard down. 

“The warning lights are starting to flash on the dashboard,' he said, 'and nobody should think for one minute that we are somehow immune to the spikes that we’re seeing spread in surrounding states in the region and across the country. The weeks and months ahead will be difficult and our collective actions will determine whether we can continue safely on this road to recovery…’I mean, it’s simple. It’s not that hard. Just wear the damn masks.”
