Marylanders will be dealing with the fallout of the federal budget bill for years to com, including thousands of people losing health coverage and struggling to afford food. Read more about the impact this legislation will have on Maryland in our latest blog post. mdeconomy.org/recent-feder...

The budget bill Congressional Republicans just passed rips away healthcare and food assistance from families while rewarding the ultra-wealthy. In Maryland, that means an estimated 210,000 will lose health coverage and 57,000 are at risk of losing some or all of their food assistance.

16 million people would lose health coverage and become uninsured under the Republican health agenda the Senate is debating today, including 210,000 people in here Maryland. Policymakers should protect and improve people’s health care, not cut it.

This Wednesday at 11 am - learn about the current state of homeownership in Maryland and how policy changes can expand access to opportunity and protect homeowners facing challenges. Register for the webinar at mdeconomy.org/events

Hundreds of thousands of Marylanders would be at risk of losing health coverage and states would face billions in new costs under Republican House members' proposed massive cuts to Medicaid now under consideration. Maryland can't afford this massive step back. 🔗 mdeconomy.org/a-step-forwa...

Maryland took a major step toward a fairer and more effective tax code this year thanks to changes that will ensure the wealthy few pay their fair share in taxes. This new revenue will support schools, health care, and many other essential services. itep.org/maryland-bud...

We ask legislators to support CASA's #ImmigrantJustice package. Everyone deserves:

🏫 Safe access to schools, hospitals & places of worship
🔒 Protection of personal data & privacy
🚔 Communities built on trust, not fear

Together, we can create a Maryland where all families feel safe and supported.

Marylanders need #TimeToCareMD and #PaidLeave now to care for themselves and loved ones in the best and worst of times. With more delays Md. will fall farther behind other states, hurting families and our economy.
