Maryland House Delays Action on Unemployment Tax and Elector Ballot Change
In Annapolis a 25 minute session saw House of Delegates members introduce bills to broaden unemployment insurance coverage and to remove presidential electors from the state ballot. Speaker Emmanuel Gortine said committees would be named upon reconvening. A Baltimore city delegate pressed a bill to tax employers with one or more workers, expanding beyond the current eight worker threshold. In the Senate, Governor's copies of major budget sections were promised for faster consideration, while a bill to tax unemployment insurance in the Senate was also introduced by Sen J Allan Coad and a separate bill sought moving University of Maryland scholarships from the board of regents to the state senate.
