Democracy Wire

This session, Common Cause Maryland supported reforms that responded to the needs of the local boards of election – especially as more voters are expected to vote by mail in the 2022 elections. We also watchdogged the redistricting process and supported several reforms that meet the public's demand for more accountability and transparency in our government. 

As the Maryland General Assembly continues to navigate the ongoing public health crisis, we’ll be working to ensure the public can observe and meaningfully participate in both chambers during the 90-day legislative session. We’ll also be advocating on the reforms aimed at building a more inclusive democracy.
