On March 24, legislation establishing the Maryland Commission on Capital Punishment, passed both the House of Delegates 91-47 and the Senate 32-15. The two bills will now go to conference committee to resolve slight differences in language between them.
Legislative leaders supported the bill, including Senate President Miller and House Speaker Michael Busch. This Commission is the first of it's kind in Maryland, a broadly representative and diverse body charged to make recommendations regarding the future of the death penalty in Maryland.
Let's show the public mandate matches the legislative mandate for this Commission. Saying thank you is so important! Each legislator who voted for the bill needs to be thanked.
Thank:
Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller
