Maryland Assembly ends session with mixed drug policy strides
Lawmakers narrowly divided over suspending driver licenses for drug offenses not tied to driving, settling on suspending commercial licenses only. They backed measures against drug money laundering, suspected drugged driving tests, and higher open space funding to about 100 million by 1997. Pay raises for governor, lieutenant governor, and lawmakers were approved, while many consumer and privacy bills failed.

1990 Maryland session ends amid rancor and gains
The 1990 Maryland General Assembly wrapped after a turbulent eight day abortion filibuster and last minute wrangling. Frederick County secured $150,000 in state matching funds for renovations to the Frederick Historical Society at 24 East Church Street. Delegates praised the session for local gains like Open Space increases and farm preservation, while noting acrimony over abortion bills and a long, sometimes unproductive term.
