Governor O’Malley’s legislative agenda will create jobs, strengthen our Innovation Economy and build Maryland’s sustainable future. But don’t take our word for it.
Read the Baltimore Sun’s take on the Offshore wind legislation, The Capital’s explanation of the electric vehicle legislation, the Washington Post’s description of InvestMaryland, and an oped by Jim Strong of the United Steelworkers of Maryland and Mike Tidwell of the Chesapeake Climate Action Network on the Offshore Wind initiative.
Here are a few excerpts:
From the Baltimore Sun: “The wind farm envisioned by the legislation would represent too great a benefit to the residents of this state to be ignored.”
From the Capital: “For Maryland to look at this issue (electric vehicles) and set the right incentives and policies is critical”
From the Washington Post,” InvestMaryland seeks to pioneer a stronger economy by injecting a larger degree of capital into forecasted growth industries at no immediate cost to Maryland taxpayers.”
From the Gazette: “By making Maryland a leader in the construction and deployment of offshore wind turbines, the O’Malley bill would create thousands of jobs, help stabilize electricity rates, and — oh, yeah — help solve a big part of the global-warming problem.”

Wow, if these really conservative papers say this it must be true. Oh thats right, they are liberal rags just propping up their boy O'Smelly.
On the same subject,the State has money to pay for classes for solar training......I took a NEBCEP class @ Chesapeake College last month and passed the exam. This puts me half way to getting my solar certification. I've been paying MD taxes all my life...this is the first time the state has "paid me" to improve my skills.
O'Malley propaganda.
EdenMan, that was Federal Dept. of Labor money, not MD state money. Part of the so-called stimulus money recently authorized by Congress.
MD may be administering the program, but it ain't MD taxes funding it.
You could tell by the wasteful spending that it was federal money being spent. They Fed-EX'd the textbooks for crying out loud! Could have been sent MediaMail for a LOT less!
They made the participants fill out gobs of forms, paperwork, etc. It all could have been done with maybe one or 2 forms, if administered privately....
Makes you wonder what else they did which was wasteful
Edenman, congrats on your initial certification and your initiative to upgrade your skills. I hope you find a great paying job in a real, private, non-subsidized corporation.
