REPUBLICANS HELP PUSH BACK MONTGOMERY COUNTY’S LATEST TAX HIKE

Rockville, Md. – A coordinated Republican campaign throughout Montgomery County contributed to the Council’s ultimate decision to scale back a proposed property tax increase from 10% to 4.7%. The Montgomery County GOP, along with the Greater Capital Area Association of Realtors and Empower Montgomery, was a major opponent of County Executive Marc Elrich’s excessive, hoped-for tax. Between the testimony of former county executive candidate Reardon “Sully” Sullivan, and the pressure from phone calls, emails, and physical protests of Republican voters and other sensible citizens, the Council ultimately settled on a rate increase that was less than half what Elrich proposed in the 2024 budget.


NEW CENTRAL COMMITTEE MEMBER

Peter Huessy was elected and sworn in as a new Member of the Maryland Republican Central Committee from Montgomery County at the May meeting last week in Rockville. Mr. Huessy is from Potomac. Chairman Del Lamiman administered the oath of office.

If you Defund, Disrespect and Devalue the Police. If you excuse crimes and send a signal of entitlement without consequences. If your schools teach "social activism" instead of social responsibility you reap a whirlwind of unrest. Check out this video of the looting of a CVS Store in Bethesda.

Tell Marc Elrich to support the police and put an end to crime and lawlessness.
