Faces From Lobby Night 40
Annapolis Maryland, February 26, 2018. Social justice activists from Progressive Maryland, CASA, Jews United For Justice and many other groups gathered at Lawyer's Mall for a night of lobbying for a range of good causes including a state $15 minimum wage, gender wage parity, immigrants rights and fairness for our fellow citizens returning from incarceration. While many of the overwhelmingly Democratic Delegates and Senators here profess support for most progressive causes the actual pace of change is glacial. Lobbyists and the Democratic leaders in this town seem to be adept at impeding almost any good idea until they can squeeze a buck or two out of it. I say it's way past time for a change of leadership in both houses.
