Maryland House GOP Responds to Moore’s Budget

The Maryland House Republicans released a statement regarding the announced Govenor Wes Moore and the Democratic budget agreement.

“It is abundantly obvious that the definition of “Democratic Values” is a tax-and-spend-then-tax-again policy, “ said House Minority Leader Jason Buckel. “They have provided no solution to the long-term budget issues that have been facing our state since the passage of the Blueprint. Even worse, they are pushing through taxes that will only serve to damage our economy.”

“We have had weeks of rhetoric from the Governor and Democratic leadership about the existential threat Washington D.C. poses to Maryland’s economy,” said House Minority Whip Jesse Pippy. “Now they turn around and deal what will be a horrendous blow to our economy with more than a billion in new taxes including a significant tax on the technology sector we are trying to grow.”
