ImmigrationNo. 1/8
Maryland should allow local police to partner with federal immigration agents through 287(g) agreements.
Background
A 2026 Maryland law bans 287(g) agreements, which let ICE deputize local officers to carry out some immigration duties. This would restore counties' ability to sign them.
In Maryland, we defend Constitutional rights and Constitutional policing—and we will not allow untrained, unqualified, and unaccountable ICE agents to deputize our law enforcement officers.

Maryland should reverse the higher income tax rates it placed on top earners in 2025.
Background
The 2025 budget added higher income tax brackets for the state's highest earners and a surcharge on large capital gains. Reversing it would return those rates to earlier levels.
Maryland should allow more juveniles charged with violent crimes to be tried as adults.
Background
Maryland law sends some serious juvenile cases to adult court and others to juvenile court. This would widen the set of cases that can go straight to adult court.
we have Wes Moore signing into law the youth reform and charging reform act which is going to turn people back on the street when the community doesn't want that they want people held accountable when you do violent crime
Maryland should continue supporting offshore wind projects off its coast.
Background
Maryland has approved offshore wind projects and offers them state support through renewable energy credits. Continuing would keep that support in place.
Maryland should keep its requirement that handgun buyers first get a state license.
Background
Maryland requires a Handgun Qualification License, including fingerprints and safety training, before buying a handgun. Keeping it would leave this process unchanged.
I am disappointed in the Fourth Circuit Court's decision. This law is not about stripping away rights from responsible gun owners – it's about every Marylander having the right to live free from fear.

One thing I intend to do as a pro-life governor is to stop the flood of our taxpayer funds, of millions and millions of dollars, into other people's choices from out of state.
Maryland should fully fund the school spending increases in its Blueprint education law.
Background
The Blueprint for Maryland's Future law phases in large increases in school funding through the early 2030s. Full funding would keep that schedule rather than delay or reduce it.
