As Larry Hogan Prepares To Take Over, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake Says Baltimore Must Reconsider 'Reliance On State Aid'

Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake has spoken with Governor-elect Larry Hogan and came away thinking he knows Baltimore City is an economic driver for Maryland.

"We talked about the importance of Baltimore to the economy of the state," Rawlings-Blake said Wednesday. "I got the sense in our conversation that he understands how important the success of Baltimore is to the success of his administration."

The mayor offered little more in the way of details about her conversation with Hogan. They did not talk about the proposed Red Line light rail, she said. They did not talk about taxes.

Hopefully his goal is to get most of Baltimore off Welfare, and back to work!!!!!

Maybe it will force leaders to push a more pro-business agenda to bring jobs instead of taxpayer reliance.
