Mr. Myrick announced on April 30th at 12 noon in Annapolis that Dr. Brenda J. Thiam, a professional educator and former Maryland Delegate for Washington County, will be his running mate for Lt. Governor. At the press conference, Mr. Myrick shared his vision for Maryland and introduced Dr. Thiam with the following statement, “I look forward to working with Dr. Thiam as a strong partner to save our great state. As life-long dedicated public servants, we both know the importance of serving the needs and interests of the people, not the government.

We are here to fix Maryland and create a new safe and prosperous future for all Marylanders!”

President Trump’s plan during his second administration is to eliminate global trade irregularities and unfair trade practices, particularly from China. The President plans to convene over 70 U.S. allies to discuss solutions to trade irregularities, such as non-tariff trade barriers, currency manipulation, and other unfair trade practices. He aims to prepare the U.S. and its allies to address China’s unacceptable trade practices. President Trump, with support from strong allies, such as Canada, the U.K., Japan, parts of Europe, Mexico, and South Korea, seeks to decouple from unfair Chinese trade policies.

The residents of Olney, Maryland recently discovered that an out-of-state entity, USR Holdings LLC, is purchasing single family homes next to Greenwood Elementary School and converting them into drug rehab centers designed for people with serious psychological or social issues that require 24-hour care and are at risk for imminent harm. These buildings could have over 190 residents each year plus staff and visitors.

Would you allow this drug rehab center next to your child’s elementary school?  At a community meeting Councilwoman Dawn Luedtke (District 7) said there was nothing that she or the County could do.

Watch this video and please consider contacting the groups at the end of the video to stop these facilities.

"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!

Thank you for the opportunity to speak today. I come to you not with outrage, but with urgency—and with a deep respect and love for this county we all call home. I’m a fifth-generation native of Montgomery County and a tenth-generation native of Maryland. I have the ability to zoom in and out on our rich history. I can state unequivocally that Montgomery County has always made me proud of its excellence, diversity, and opportunity. But it’s as clear to me as ever before that we’re at a tipping point. The signs of a system under stress are all around us.
