Frederick marriage license cap faces challenge in Annapolis
Heartly House along with Frederick County officials urged the House Judiciary Committee to remove the cap on the marriage license surcharge.

Last year Heartly House handled many marriages and faced 150 crisis shelter rejections. The bill would let county commissioners set and raise the cap without state legislative approval.
