Moving Progress Forward in Maryland.
Democrats are leading the fight for progress in Maryland, working to improve the lives of their constituents and protect against a reckless Republican playbook. Maryland Democrats’ majorities have the power to advance and protect progress.
Maryland has had a Democratic trifecta since the 2022 elections. Under Democratic leadership, the General Assembly has taken action to combat the climate crisis, protect reproductive rights, and expand access to health care.
The DLCC will continue to partner with state Democrats to build power in Maryland.
