Dear Senator XXXXXXX,

I am opposed to implementing the "Blueprint for Maryland", aka the "Kirwan Bill", at this time.

I refer you to the following recent quotes from Governor Hogan.

"The last thing Marylanders need is higher taxes. It is unthinkable that our Legislature would even consider doing this while so many Marylanders are struggling."

"Education is my top priority, which is why we have provided historically high funding for seven years in a row and proposed the largest investments in school construction in Maryland history. No governor has ever invested more in our schools. But while we’re working to get our kids back into classrooms and help Marylanders keep more of their hard-earned money, legislators are hellbent on pushing through a multi-billion dollar plan that can’t guarantee better outcomes for our kids."

"An override of this common-sense veto will cost at least $6,200 in tax hikes for every Maryland family. As we continue to battle a global pandemic and the worst economic crisis since the Great Recession, the last thing Marylanders need is higher taxes."

I ask that you please do not override Governor Hogan's veto of the Kirwan Bill. We simply cannot afford it!

Thank you very much!
