You may be wondering, what does legislation and regulation have to do with me, an accounting or finance professional – or vasectomies? Well, as it turns out, quite a lot!

New technologies, demographic shifts, and disruptions of all shapes and sizes are coming at us faster than ever – and how our lawmakers and regulatory agencies react to these changes will dictate how our profession works going forward.

That’s why MACPA’s legislative team, with the support of volunteers, is always monitoring new bills and fighting for legislation that will benefit all Marylanders (and if you don’t live in Maryland, this is still important because some of these issues have implications that will affect everyone in our profession).

To share more about our ongoing efforts, we’re joined by Tom Hood, the CEO of the Maryland Association of CPAs and the Business Learning Institute, who is just catching his breath after the end of a busy legislative season.
