Dear Friend,

The 2022 elections are coming up fast, and it’s time to get to work to elect candidates prepared to fight for real, progressive change in Maryland politics! This week, in partnership with the Working Families Party, we announced our first round of candidate endorsements across the state.

This group of leaders — our Progressive Maryland Working Families Party slate — embraces a bold vision for Maryland’s future, and we are committed to advancing that vision. By working together, we can help elect candidates running on pressing issues like health care for all, housing security, equal justice, police and drug policy reform, and climate action.

We are proud to officially endorse the following candidates:

Carlos Childs for Charles County Commissioner, D3
Edward Burroughs for Prince George’s County Council, D8 **
Jamila Woods for State Delegate, D26 (Prince George’s County)
Januari McKay for State Delegate, D23B (Prince George’s County)
Laurie-Anne Sayles for Montgomery County Council, At-Large
Logan Endow for State Delegate, D43 (Baltimore City)
Michele Gregory for State Senator, D38 (Somerset County, Worcester County, Wicomico County)
Natali Fani-González for Montgomery County Council, D4
Robbie Leonard, Baltimore County State’s Attorney
Ruben Amaya for State Delegate, D10 (Baltimore County)
Sheila Ruth for State Delegate, D44B (Baltimore County)
Tiffany Jones for Democratic State Central Committee, D45 (Baltimore City)
Wala Blegay for Prince George’s County Council, D6
William “Billy” Reid for State Delegate, D3A (Frederick County)

The stakes are high in 2022, and there are plenty of ways for supporters like you to be involved with our grassroots voter outreach efforts. We can’t do this without you! If you’re prepared to help, please sign up to volunteer on our election team. You can also make a contribution of any amount to support our program here: donate to Progressive Maryland’s New Era PAC.

We’ll be endorsing candidates for the 2022 election cycle on a rolling basis, so stay tuned for more endorsement announcements soon! Thank you for being part of this movement to build progressive electoral power for everyday Marylanders.

Best,

The Progressive Maryland Team

** PS — Edward Burroughs is running in a special election race for a vacated seat on the Prince George’s County Council. This means we only have until January 4 to secure a progressive victory for Prince George’s County.
