New Independent Poll: Governor Hogan Approval 20 Points Higher Than President
Biden in Deep-Blue Maryland
<[link removed]>

<[link removed]>
 

A new poll provides more proof that Governor Hogan’s common sense, unifying,
and effective brand leadership is overwhelmingly popular with every demographic
group. According to an independent poll from Gonzales Research & Media
Services, with one year remaining in his second term, Governor Hogan’s approval
rating is at 74%, 20 points higher than President Biden’s approval in the most
deep-blue state in America. Governor Hogan’s support remains near or above 70%
for every demographic group with his approval on the handling of the COVID-19
pandemic remains even higher at 76%.

 

As he continues to fight to re-fund the police and to crack down on violent
crime, Governor Hogan holds an 80% approval rating with black voters, an
astonishing feat for a Republican.

With Record Fiscal Surplus, Governor Hogan Proposes Largest Tax Cut in History
of Maryland
<[link removed]>
With the cost of living rising across the country, Governor Hogan is fighting
for historic levels of tax relief for Marylanders. Before Governor Hogan took
office, Maryland had a $5.1 billion structural deficit after raising taxes 43
consecutive times. Now, after seven years in a row of fiscal discipline and
cutting taxes, Maryland has a record $2.5 billion surplus.

 

At a press conference this week, Governor Hogan outlined his plan to return
this surplus back to Marylanders by eliminating the state’s retirement taxes,
cutting income taxes on working families, and expanding tax incentives for
manufacturers.

 

This new proposal would cut taxes even more than last year, when Governor
Hogan successfully passed the largest tax cut in Maryland history with near
unanimous support from his overwhelmingly Democratic legislature. Governor
Hogan continues to set a national model for how to deliver common sense
conservative results in a hyper-polarized age.

As Governor Hogan Submits Fair Maps, Arnold Schwarzenegger Urges Maryland
Legislature To End Partisan Gerrymandering
<[link removed]>
Governor Hogan personally submitted
<[link removed]>
 fair maps drawn by the independent and non-partisan citizens commission to the
Maryland legislature. While the Citizens commission has proposed maps that do
not favor either party, the Maryland legislature’s partisan political panel has
proposed maps that are even more gerrymandered than what are already among the
most gerrymandered maps in America.

 

This comes as former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has written
<[link removed]>
to Governor Hogan, praising the fair maps and urging the Maryland legislature
to stop their “ugly” gerrymandering and instead “listen to their constituents
and pass fair maps, and serve as public servants instead of party servants.”
Schwarzenegger has long been a national leader on ending gerrymandering in both
red and blue states.

Governor Hogan Outlines Expanded Re-Fund The Police Proposal, Introduces Bills
To Hold Violent Criminals Accountable
<[link removed]>
Governor Hogan held a press conference to announce the expansion of his
re-fund the police initiative to a $500 million program, including historic
salary increases and bonuses for law enforcement officers. Governor Hogan also
once again introduced common sense bills to hold repeat violent criminals
accountable, urging legislative leaders to “put politics aside and pass these
emergency crime bills.” Governor Hogan’s crime bills have passed
<[link removed]>
 through the State Senate for two years in a row, but the House of Delegates
has refused to act each time.

 

As Fox News has reported
<[link removed]>
, An America United has been advocating for greater support and resources for
police across the country by spotlighting the re-fund the police initiative in
Maryland. According to Governor Hogan, “even in the most progressive cities all
across the country, leaders are now following our lead and admitting that
instead of defunding, they need more investment in public safety.”

Thank you to Governor @Schwarzenegger
<[link removed]> for your leadership
and support of our work to “terminate gerrymandering” in Maryland. Today, we
submitted fair legislative maps drawn by citizens. It’s time to let the voters
pick their elected officials, not the other way around.
