Protecting Maryland's Environment

Demanding clean water and air for our children and protecting our Bay

We owe it to our children to leave Maryland’s environment in better shape than we found it. When it comes to the environment, I lead by example living in a carbon-neutral house, recycling more than I discard, and driving a hybrid vehicle.


In the legislature, and in my community, I have been a leading voice for protecting Maryland’s unique environment for future generations.    

Preserving the bay

Preserving the bay

Preserving the bay

I've supported numerous pieces of legislation to revitalize the Chesapeake Bay – a national treasure and economic jewel of Maryland – including efforts to:


  • limit storm water runoff
  • implement Smart Growth practices
  • close incentives for businesses to contaminate the Bay (and the environment at-large), and hold polluters responsible
  • establish an oyster shell recycling program

A greener maryland

Preserving the bay

With a 97 percent lifetime environmental voting record and experience as Chairman of the Legislative Bicycle Caucus, I've worked to identify opportunities to incentivize state employees to live healthy lifestyles and enjoy more time outdoors.


  • Introduced legislation to increase recycling at state office buildings and to expand the State’s “green portfolio.”
  • Co-sponsored legislation to create a Baltimore Regional Water Governance Task Force to monitor water and wastewater management and make recommendations to Baltimore City and County governments.
  • Supported incentives to businesses and individuals who reduce their carbon footprints and create next-generation energy jobs.
  • Supported initiatives to improve the air quality across our state such as the Clean Indoor and Outdoor Air Acts.
