We’re heating things up

John, do you feel it? There’s something chilly in the air and it’s not just the weather. The fundraising freeze is fast approaching, and it’s a cold front. It’s three whole months of zero fundraising, meaning our team has to rely exclusively on the trove of resources we currently have. We n…

Freeze goal

John, it's Patrick. I’m sure you know, but from January 8 until April 7, the team will be prohibited from all fundraising. Any funds we receive after January 8, we will have to return. That means that we only have four more days before we shut down all of our fundraising links and pages, an…

Power of Community

John,  Let me make one thing clear: Power cannot be taken by someone who didn’t even give it to you in the first place. The power comes from us. It comes from community, our neighborhoods, and our families.  In Maryland, we celebrate our communities as we stand together with love and stand …

Since day one

John, From day one as Governor of Maryland, I set out to be the best public servant I can be. To govern with humility and grace. If there is one thing I have learned as governor, it is that everyone has a story — including myself. After my father passed away when I was young, I was raised b…

January 8

John, it’s Aruna Miller. The Maryland legislature will gavel in for the 447th legislative session in less than a month. In exactly 28 days, we must stop all fundraising efforts until the spring. That puts us at a significant disadvantage when we can’t fundraise for ¼ of the year, so we need…
