The legislature's special legislative session in October is supposed to be limited and quick. The to-do list includes approving a new congressional district map for the state, and not much else.
But with Maryland facing a projected $1 billion shortfall, budget debates in Washington putting future federal contributions in question and Wall Street rating agencies re-evaluating the state's creditworthiness, Annapolis leaders could add taxes to the agenda.
Asked about the possibility of an October revenue debate, Gov. Martin O'Malley signaled a degree of openness to the idea.
"We give all sorts of thoughts to all sorts of things," he told reporters this week. "It is very, very fluid."
