State GOP Leaders Map Legislative Plans At Key Hotel
Republican leaders from across Maryland met at the Francis Scott Key Hotel to present a united front ahead of the January 20 legislative session.

The plan also proposed a Western Maryland Sixth District addition and favored Montgomery and Prince Georges counties remaining strong in district counts.
