Maryland taxpayers rally for statewide spending limit after Senate gains
Deeply disappointed Maryland taxpayers hailed a renewed chance for a constitutional limit on state spending as the Senate passed three of six spending bills, a move that could force the House to revisit LIMIT. They criticized Governor Hughes and House leadership for blocking the package, while Senate leaders argued the measure received broad support and momentum. The push highlighted public demand for spending restraint, with polls showing strong cross party backing for a legal cap and public confidence in officials to enforce it improving if such limits existed. Western Maryland lawmakers led the Senate fight to advance part of the package, urging final passage before the 1980 session ends.
