December 2021

Dear Friend:

Welcome to my website! As the omricon variant of the coronavirus ramps up across the country, I hope that you have received your COVID-19 vaccination. If you still need a shot or want to get a booster, visit my COVID-19 Homepage to locate a site near you.

 The General Assembly is convened in Annapolis for a “Special Session.” Every 10 years, states redraw congressional and state legislative district lines. My colleagues and I will debate and vote on proposed Congressional districts based on the 2020 Census results. Additionally, will be electing a new State Treasurer to take the place of my friend and distinguished leader Nancy Kopp— who recently announced her retirement. To learn more about Nancy’s long and impressive career, please watch my “chat” with her on “Kibbitzing with Kagan“.

The legislature will also vote whether to override some of Gov. Hogan’s vetoes from the 2021 Session. Topics include providing local tax relief for working families; establishing a marketing plan for Maryland’s Purple Line; allocating more funds for Metropolitan Transportation Authority upgrades; and much more.

My staff and I have been working hard from home to provide resources during the pandemic; address constituent challenges with unemployment insurance; and prepare my legislative agenda for 2022.I am deeply honored to represent you in the State Senate. Although the General Assembly has adjourned, my staff and I will continue to work diligently to serve the residents of Gaithersburg and Rockville. Please continue to stay in touch!

Best,

Cheryl

Cheryl C. Kagan

Maryland State Senator
