## About

**Tuesday, September 3 at 6 pm**

  

Please join me on September 3 to celebrate **Maryland’s wildlife** and to support me to continue my work **protecting the health and well-being of all Marylanders** - human and animal - and the environment we all depend on. ![🐝](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/tbe/2/16/1f41d.png) 🦋 🐢 🦀 

Last session, I introduced bills to:

-   Protect pollinator habitats on the highways (passed!);
-   Reduce plastic waste;
-   Develop highway wildlife crossings to protect drivers and animals from wildlife-vehicle collisions;
-   Protect Marylanders from deadly PFAS "forever chemicals" being used in pesticides sprayed on our food crops;
-   Protect students from being arrested for types of behavior that are better addressed by established school accountability processes;
-   Study creating a state-based universal healthcare system in Maryland;
-   Examine the causes of and solutions to aggressive and reckless driving in Maryland;
-   Study alternatives to the criminal justice system for addressing drug use and harm reduction;
-   Authorize a tax credit to encourage the transition of gas stations to land uses that will benefit the community;
-   Modernize the ballot petition process and make it more accessible to disabled voters;
-   And more!

I support our unions, collective bargaining, and a living wage. My goals include increasing transportation choices and housing opportunities. I'm also working for climate justice and a livable future.

**I don't solicit or accept donations from corporate special interests, including fossil fuel companies and the health insurance industry, so I depend on the support of regular folks like you.**

The event will be held at a private location in Towson. The address will be sent on registration.
