  • 2018 Monoblogue Accountability Project
    2018 monoblogue Accountability Project A voting summary for the Maryland General Assembly ©2018 Michael Swartz. Reprint permission is granted with credit to “Michael Swartz at monoblogue” (with link) Introduction I began the monoblogue Accountability Project in 2008 as the successor to an earlier effort called the Maryland Accountability Project. It graded all 188 members of the General Assembly on whether they voted in what the author considered a conservative manner or not. Since the creator of the project moved on to other things I took up the baton, with my first year’s work incorporating three sessions: the 2007 Regular Session, the 2007 Special Session, and the 2008 Regular Session. I continued the project for the entire 2007-10 electoral term and began anew with the 2011 session. Now I finish my work with this year, the end of my third term for the mAP. With the primary coming up June 26, I thought it important to get this edition out as early as possible. Unfortunately, in looking at the races as they are shaping up, there are sadly too few good opportunities to eliminate the deadwood of the General Assembly as well as those so-called “progressive” members who are, in truth, blocking our progress in returning to the status of the “Free State.” It is for this main reason you are far more than likely looking at the last Maryland edition of the monoblogue Accountability Project – Delaware is a more appealing state, so that's where we plan on relocating. I'll still be working in Maryland but, unless I see a compelling reason to continue I think it's time I shifted focus to the other side of the Transpeninsular Line.

    To: The Honorable Joan Carter Conway Chair, Senate Education, Health & Environmental Affairs Committee Miller Senate Office Building, 2 West Wing 11 Bladen Street Annapolis, MD 21401-1991 Re: SB 748 Position: OPPOSE Date: March 16, 2015 Chairman Conway: My name is Brent Miller, and I am the Northeastern States Director for the Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation (CSF). As a passionate outdoorsman living in Northern Virginia, and working in Washington, DC, I am a regular non-resident license buyer in Maryland and have made many trips to the Old Line State to pursue whitetail and sika deer, geese, ducks, and rockfish. Further, I serve as a Steering Committee Member for the Maryland Sportsmen’s Marketing initiative – an effort to increase fish and wildlife associated tourism throughout the State. I am writing to express the Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation’s strong opposition to SB 748 which, if passed, would authorize the commercial sale of wild venison harvested through crop damage permits. Since 1989 the Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation has maintained a singleness of purpose that has guided the organization to become the most respected and trusted sportsmen's organization in the political arena. CSF's mission is to work with Congress, governors, and state legislatures to protect and advance hunting, angling, recreational shooting, and trapping. The unique and collective force of the Congressional Sportsmen's Caucus (CSC), the Governors Sportsmen's Caucus (GSC) and the National Assembly of Sportsmen's Caucuses (NASC), working closely with CSF, and with the support of major hunting, recreational fishing & shooting, and trapping organizations, serves as an unprecedented network of pro-sportsmen elected officials that advance the interests of America's hunters and anglers.

  • Delegate Jacobs Introduces Bipartisan Resolution on Conowingo Dam
    For Immediate Release February 11, 2019 Media Contact: Betsy Nicholas, [email protected] , 202-423-0504 Delegate Jacobs Introduces Bipartisan Resolution on Conowingo Dam Legislation would hold Exelon financially responsible for reducing pollution (Annapolis, Md.) – Maryland Delegate Jay Jacobs (R-36) joined forces with urban and rural legislators to introduce House Joint Resolution 8 (HJ8) that will hold the Exelon Generation Company, LLC, financially responsible for a portion of the Conowingo Dam’s cleanup costs, as well as at least 25 percent of the costs associated with the Dam’s Watershed Implementation Plan (WIP). Exelon owns and operates the dam, located on the lower Susquehanna River in Maryland, approximately 10 miles north of where the river meets the Chesapeake Bay. “This bipartisan legislation presents a common-sense solution to reducing the sediment pollution stored behind the Conowingo Dam,” said Betsy Nicholas, Executive Director of Waterkeepers Chesapeake. “The burden for cleaning up pollution behind the Conowingo Dam should not fall solely on Maryland taxpayers. Exelon is a multi-million-dollar corporation and should pay its fair share of the total cleanup costs. We urge the General Assembly to support this resolution to sustain the upkeep of the dam and protect clean water.” To help the state meet its requirements to clean up the Chesapeake Bay by 2025, Maryland is including a WIP specifically to address Conowingo Dam for the first time. WIPs document the steps, measures and practices Maryland and its local jurisdictions take to achieve and maintain overall Chesapeake Bay cleanup goals. “As a representative of the Eastern Shore and watermen, my constituents and I are on the front lines of downstream effects of pollution from Conowingo Dam – particularly acute during flooding events,” Delegate Jacobs said.
