Senate

Maryland Senate, District 1

Representing three counties of Western Maryland in Annapolis, with a record of pushing back when the state forgets us.

Chairman

Fire & EMS Coalition

Leading the statewide coalition that protects volunteer companies, paid responders, and the families they serve.

Western Marylander

Lifelong, not a transplant

Born here, raised here, raising a family here. Mike's priorities sound like Western Maryland's because they are Western Maryland's.

Where I stand

A record built on the priorities of three counties.

Fiscal discipline

Tax dollars come home.

When Annapolis spends, Western Maryland deserves its fair share back. Every funding fight is about that ledger.

Public safety

Fire, EMS, and the people who answer the call.

Volunteer companies, paid responders, and rural hospitals are the spine of District 1. Mike fights for the funding and the laws they need.

Rural priorities

A voice that knows the difference.

Energy, broadband, water, roads, the workforce. The issues hit Western Maryland differently, and Mike represents them that way.
