GOVERNOR MARTIN O’MALLEY TO CONTINUE “MARYLAND FORWARD” SERIES WITH LOCAL POLICY FORUMS

ANNAPOLIS, MD (February 4, 2010) – A day after Governor Martin O’Malley delivered his 2011 State of the State address, which focused on the choices necessary for Maryland to be a winner in the new economy, Governor Martin O’Malley announced a series of “Maryland Forward” local policy forums to advance many of those initiatives. 

Prior to his inauguration for a second term, Governor O’Malley convened a series of five “Maryland Forward” forums designed to gather the input of various stakeholders, including recommendations for legislative in areas including jobs and the economy; skills and education; sustainability; children and health; and public safety and security.  These day-long summits brought together stakeholders to generate concrete actions and recommendations that support the Administration’s strategic goals.

Following that series, Governor O’Malley will convene smaller groups of local stakeholders throughout the 2011 legislative session focused on specific policy areas that will help Maryland be a winner in the new economy, protect our neighborhoods, and create jobs.
