In Depth: 2025 Legislative Session recap as the budget remains top of mind | Fox 45 News | by WBFF STAFF | April 10, 2025

"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!

AM radio has a history dating back to the early 1900’s and while I wasn’t around when Orson Welles broadcast the 1938 drama, War of the Worlds, AM radio played a major role with broadcasting news programs and music for many more decades. I recently heard about a bi-partisan Bill introduced in the Senate (you heard that correctly!) requiring AM radio capabilities to be standard in all new passenger vehicles. If the vehicle does not have AM radio as a standard option, the manufacturer must inform purchasers of this fact through clear and conspicuous labeling and may not charge any additional fee for AM radio access.
