It’s an all-Maryland Politics Hour this week. In Montgomery County, councilmembers continue questioning school leaders about an ongoing investigation into a school principal who was promoted despite sexual harassment allegations. At-Large Councilmember Gabe Albornoz sits down with Kojo and Tom to discuss. Plus, a new stricter gun law took effect in Maryland this past weekend, but a federal judge had already struck down parts of it. We ask Councilmember Albornoz his thoughts and how it compares to legislation he introduced last year.
Prince George’s County is considering a bill that would increase the minimum wage for tipped workers, following other local jurisdictions. Councilmember Edward Burroughs introduced the legislation and will join the show. And a bill that will allow councilmembers to vote virtually finally passed, but not without some controversy and political debate. We get Councilmember Burroughs‘ take on it all.
