“These proposals are specific, they are feasible, and they represent what I will focus on during my first year in office,” Allen said. “My proposals stand in marked contrast to the status quo thinking and inaction that characterize the last four years in Annapolis. My election will insert new energy and principled leadership into every debate to make Maryland work smarter and better for all of its people."
Highlights of Jeanne Allen’s “One Maryland” Economic Growth Plan include removing revenue-depleting surcharges on small businesses and entrepreneurs, transforming Maryland’s state agencies to bring about efficiency and results and reducing regulatory burdens.
Highlights of Jeanne Allen’s “Next Century” Education Plan include legislation respecting and rewarding effective teachers with new, professional contracts; investigating the loss of local money intended for Montgomery County Schools; expanding the participation of higher education in the state’s charter school innovations; and supporting the parents of children with special needs with more options.
