It’s a bill! – HB 8 – And it’s on the schedule!
I realize this information will reveal a lot about me; however, it feels like the time to break my anonymity.
While I haven’t heard anything official about testifying, a search of the Maryland General Assembly’s website gave me the good news I’ve been waiting for – the draft bill I submitted and have been working to revise with a bill writer has been officially made a bill and has been given a number. It is on the scheduled to go before the Judiciary committee on 19 January. To say I am astounded would be a gross understatement. This is really happening. I made this happen. Wow.
