Redistricting Only in Maryland Special Session | Dover News

Published 3 weeks ago
Description

Maryland’s lawmakers are locking in a tight focus for their August special session—only redistricting bills will be allowed, shutting out urgent issues like energy costs and tax relief. Senate President Bill Ferguson and House Speaker Joseline Peña-Melnyk say the goal is to keep the session laser-focused on its constitutional amendment task, but Republicans are furious, calling it a political maneuver that sidelines families struggling with inflation. With proposed maps potentially giving Democrats full control of Maryland’s congressional seats, the session could reshape the state’s political landscape—and the GOP says they’re being forced to wait while maps are redrawn.
