Our choice for District 1 – Allison Galbraith – withdrew from the race on or about April 20. We are very disappointed.

Here is the text of our endorsement announcement:

Our Revolution Maryland is pleased to endorse Allison Galbraith for Congress for Maryland’s 1st District.

Raised in historic Bel Air, Allison is a native of Maryland’s 1st Congressional District.

Allison’s responses to our questionnaire left no doubt that she has the bold, progressive message and infrastructure needed to defeat one of the most extreme members of the right-wing Freedom Caucus – Andy Harris.

We encourage all eligible 1st District residents to vote for Allison Galbraith in the Democratic primary on June 2nd. Please make sure to register as a Democrat, if you’re not already, in order to vote in the primary.

Update March 23 at 2pm: Governor Hogan ordered this morning that all non-essential businesses in Maryland close due to coronavirus outbreak.

Several Our Revolution Maryland activists have reported that employees, who could work productively from home, are being required to report to their workplace. This increases their risk of contracting the coronavirus and ultimately jeopardizes all of us. In response, we are petitioning Governor Hogan for an executive order allowing Maryland-based employees to work from home unless their physical presence is required. Maryland Progressive Healthcare Coalition, Progressive Democrats of America – Maryland, and Greater Baltimore DSA, are co-sponsors.

We posted the petition Tuesday March 17. So far 380 people have signed. Please join us if you haven’t already by clicking here.
