Dear Friend,

Today is Sine Die, the final day of the Maryland Legislative Session until it reconvenes in January 2023. As the General Assembly prepares to adjourn at midnight tonight, we’re taking stock of some of the major victories of this legislative session. The Climate Solutions Now Act of 2022, a sweeping bill to dramatically reduce statewide emissions over the coming decades, has become law, as has the Healthy Babies Equity Act, which guarantees Marylanders access to prenatal care regardless of their immigration status.

Over the weekend, Democratic supermajorities in both chambers acted quickly to override a number of progressive bills that were vetoed by Gov. Hogan late last week. Thanks to swift legislative action, the Time to Care Act – a paid family & medical leave bill that has been one of Progressive Maryland’s top priorities this session – has become law!! Veto overrides also saved the Abortion Care Access Act, which will expanding abortion access in our state, and measures that grant collective bargaining rights to lawyers at the Office of the Public Defender and to some MTA employees. Read on for more legislative updates and various ways you can get involved with our electoral efforts as the July primary approaches!

In Solidarity,

The Progressive Maryland Team
