My campaign message:

• Gerrymandering is bad for the country
• But power in Congress goes by seniority — power to the people who get re-elected many times
• So, unfortunately, gerrymandering is a smart and rational strategy for the states
• Goal: Reduce the incentives for Maryland to Gerrymand
  • Approach: A Community Development Corporation (CDC), owned by our voters, will serve as a persistent interface for MD-4 district affairs
  • The CDC will hold frequent town meetings for MD-4
  • The CDC will track action items from those meetings and track the Representative’s progress on those items
  • The CDC will provide recruitment, training, contract support, and career opportunities for MD-4 Congressional staff
  • The CDC will identify and help win new Federal opportunities for people and businesses in our district
• Benefits:
  • New, modern methods of hearing citizen feedback in government
  • Creation of issue dashboards for our district, which will give us greater collaborative long-term planning capabilities
