A Maryland state delegation led by Gov. Harry Hughes pressed Congress on funds already agreed, not new money, fearing the Reagan plan would cut revenue sharing. Baltimore Mayor Schaefer warned tax rates could rise if revenue sharing ends, threatening parks and recreational programs. Officials cited EPA grants, Farmers Home Admin funds, and highway financing as at risk, with counties and cities urging timely disbursement to avoid service cuts.
