"Control MoCo Spending" (CMS) was formed to limit the County spending to the prior year Consumer Price Index (CPI). The County Executive and County Council have a long history of lavish spending relative to our metropolitan neighbors, and raising taxes in all forms. We currently find ourselves with yet another round of tax increases occurring in under two years.
The purpose of this ballot petition is to secure enough signatures to get the question on the ballot for the 2026 election.
Objective
We want to change the County Charter to ensure that the Montgomery County Executive and County Council cannot increase spending above the prior year CPI.
How to get the job done
We were able to secure over 10,000 signatures to get term limits on the ballot in November 2024. We Can do it again!
