  • Montgomery County Office of Intergovernmental Relations General Assembly 2020 End of Session Summary
    MONTGOMERY COUNTY OFFICE OF INTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY 2020 END OF SESSION SUMMARY Introduction The 2020 session began as required by the Maryland Constitution on the second Wednesday in January but ended in an extraordinarily unusual manner on the 71st day when the General Assembly adjourned sine die for the first time since the Civil War in less than the full 90 days authorized under the Maryland Constitution. Prior to adjournment, the Speaker and the President announced their hopes that the General Assembly would return for a special session at the end of May to consider veto overrides and any action necessary to help the State respond to the outbreak of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). The second year of the current four-year term for the 188-member body was destined to be historic before it started. Adrienne Jones (D-Baltimore County) would serve her first term as Speaker, becoming the first woman and first African American to serve in that position. Bill Ferguson (D-Baltimore City) would serve his first term as President of the Senate, becoming, at 36, the second youngest person to ever serve in that position, and replacing Thomas V. (Mike) Miller (D-Prince George’s and Calvert Counties), who had served longer than any other Senate president in Maryland history. The Commission on Innovation and Excellence in Education (Kirwan Commission) completed its three-year comprehensive review of the State’s public education system in December 2019 and the Commission’s recommendations for overhauling the system were expected to be a major focus of the entire General Assembly.

    2 Lung.org American Lung Association “State of Tobacco Control” 2021 “State of Tobacco Control” 2021: Preventing and Reducing Tobacco Use During the Time of COVID-19 The 19th annual American Lung Association “State of Tobacco Control” report evaluates states and the federal government on actions taken to eliminate the nation’s leading cause of preventable death—tobacco use—and save lives with proven-effective and urgently needed tobacco control laws and policies. The COVID-19 pandemic was clearly the main story of 2020, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths and disrupting the lives of everyone in the country. The U.S. Surgeon General has conclusively linked smoking to suppression of the immune system, and smoking increases the risk for severe illness from COVID-19, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). With the threat of COVID-19 in addition to the numerous tobacco-caused diseases, it is imperative to prevent youth from starting to use tobacco and to help everyone quit. Much like how COVID-19 has a disproportionate impact on certain communities, especially communities of color, so does tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke. Menthol cigarettes remain a key vector for tobacco-related death and disease in Black communities, with over 80% of Black Americans who smoke using them. Menthol cigarette use is Menthol in cigarettes plays also elevated among LGBTQ+ Americans, pregnant women and persons a significant role in youth with lower incomes. A recent study showed that while overall cigarette use declined by 26% over the past decade, 91% of that decline was becoming addicted to due to non-menthol cigarettes.1 This underscores what an FDA scientific cigarettes, masking the harsh advisory committee already found:2 menthol cigarettes are hard to quit, and taste of tobacco smoke and disproportionately affects Black communities.3 In addition, secondhand making the smoke easier to smoke exposure also occurs most often in hospitality establishments such as bars and casinos where people from Black and Brown communities more inhale.
