Three months after Maryland lawmakers raised taxes on the wealthy,
saying the money was urgently needed for classrooms, surging revenue
from other areas has left the state with a surplus, prompting a fight
about whether the tax increase was needed at all.

in the bank — or more than twice as much as expected, Comptroller Peter
Franchot (D) announced late last week.

GIVE IT BACK!!!
I echo 1:22. The State has taken taken taken for so long. Show some goodwill to your citizens & give something back for a change. It woouldn't be much, but it would be the thought that counts.
Does anyone really think they know what they are doing ??
i guess owe-mally will give himself a raise.
So why do the democrats pushing the casino on tv like the state is broke?
The state is broke. They just supposedly found this extra money because the projections were off. This closed the budget gap very little.
Not to mention the city has over charged about a third of it's residences bay restoration fee. Will they give it back? The rates were charged the new fee before it came into effect!
Again, will they give it back?
Don't forget the budget is money NOT YET SPENT. Trim the fat!
what uh I twas expecting the sky to fall in!!! if we did'nt get our special sessions?.Just proves that Omally and the DEMS in this state are on crack and dont even now how much they really need..
