Highlights Support for First Responders, Boys and Girls Clubs, and Main Street Businesses Across Western Maryland
Hogan for Maryland today kicked off the Country Over Party, People Over Politics Tour in Western Maryland with stops in Washington and Allegany Counties.
“We’re proud to kick off our Country Over Party, People Over Politics tour in Western Maryland, where our administration focused every day on lifting up communities that too often felt forgotten,” Governor Hogan said. “From supporting our first responders and law enforcement to making historic investments in downtown revitalizations and Main Street businesses, it is all about putting Marylanders first. I’m running for the Senate because I’m committed to putting country over party and people over politics, and I’m asking voters to join me and do the same.”
