Congressman Harris Condemns Actions of Baltimore County Superintendent

WASHINGTON, DC: Congressman Andy Harris (MD-01) urged Baltimore County Superintendent, Dr. S. Dallas Dance, to consider the repercussions of his troubling actions on election night. On November 8th, Superintendent Dance used his official twitter account to express concern for certain racial and religious groups, while excluding other groups that were the subject of campaign rhetoric as well.

"As a member of the House Appropriations subcommittee that deals with federal funding of education, I am always concerned with how taxpayer monies meant to educate students (and not to advance a political agenda) are being used," Dr. Harris wrote. "I am particularly concerned when taxpayer funds are being used to discriminate based on race or religion."
