Relief is on the way: the General Assembly has given final and near unanimous approval to our top legislative priority, the RELIEF Act of 2021. This is wonderful news for Maryland families and small businesses in every corner of our state.
I want to thank the House and Senate for acting with the urgency that the crisis demands. I look forward to signing this legislation so that we can get much-needed relief out the door, and into the pockets of those who desperately need it.
The RELIEF Act will deliver more than $1 billion in tax relief and economic stimulus for struggling families and small businesses. It will help Marylanders barely hanging on right now as we work to bring this global pandemic to an end.
While Washington gears up for yet another partisan fight, here in Maryland we are once again setting an example of what effective and bipartisan leadership looks like.
