  • 2018 Legislative Wrap-Up
    2018 Legislative Wrap-Up To Our Valued Clients, Friends, and Colleagues: On April 9, 2018, the Maryland General Assembly concluded its 438th Legislative Session. At this time each year, we like to take a moment to share the highlights of the last 90 days. A record 3,101 bills were introduced in 2018. Needless to say, this synopsis is not an exhaustive report of the legislative activities this session, but merely an overview on certain topics of interest. If you have specific questions, please feel free to contact us. Labor and Employment Minimum Wage Increase (“Fight for Fifteen”) Continuing a nationwide effort, Fight for Fifteen labor advocates reintroduced legislation to increase the state minimum wage to $15.00 per hour by July 1, 2024. The bill would eliminate a tip credit for employers who employ tipped employees, and was strongly and successfully opposed by Maryland full service restaurants. Maryland is one of 29 states that mandates a minimum wage higher than the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. Only seven states require employers to pay the full state minimum wage before tips. Senate Bill 543/House Bill 664, introduced by Senator Richard Madaleno (D-Montgomery County) and Delegate Shelly Hettleman (D-Baltimore County), received significant opposition from Maryland businesses who already face an increasing wage to $10.10 per hour, beginning July 2019. Advocates were not successful in moving this bill in either the House of Delegates or the Senate, although a push is expected again next year. There were several other pieces of legislation introduced this session to increase the state minimum wage rate or to index it including: Senate Bills 235 and 1019, both sponsored by Senator Barbara Robinson (D-Baltimore City), and Senate Bill 368, sponsored by Senator Nathaniel McFadden (D-Baltimore City), all of which failed due to lack of action by the legislature.

    NPAM Election Analysis Maryland Primary Election Results – At a Glance Governor’s Race Former NAACP leader Ben Jealous defeated five other Democrats and will face Governor Larry Hogan in the general election. Maryland General Assembly While provisional and absentee ballots are being counted this week (and as a result, key aspects of this report are subject to change), we expect at least fifteen (15) new members of the 47-member Senate, and twenty-nine (29) new members of the 141-member House of Delegates after the November 6 General Election. Both chambers will also see changes in several key leadership posts when the Governor and General Assembly are sworn in mid-January 2019. While not an exhaustive list, below are some updates from the Maryland’s primary elections. Please note, provisional and absentee ballots have not yet been counted. Some of these outcomes are not final and may be subject to change. We will update you accordingly.
