Eight Maryland candidates respond to an Associated Press survey on Prop 13 style tax limits. Act Gov Bill Lee backs a spending growth cap tied to personal income gains and housing tax assessments.

Hughes and Orlinsky favor shifting burden to income taxes and cutting programs, with Hughes calling for broad reform and emergency provisions. Orlinsky opposes a strict growth limit. Carlton Beall resists fixed caps, cites inflation. Gore and Pierpont push freezes or immediate tax rewrites, with Pierpont pledging to curb spending and oppose spending ceilings.
