“Obviously, it’s a very nice gesture,” Ehrlich said. “I really appreciate it. It takes you back to a lot of battles.”
Ehrlich revived the long-debated highway linking Interstate 270 in Gaithersburg to U.S. 1 in Laurel after his predecessor, former Gov. Parris Glendening (D), killed the project in 1999. The first section of the 17.5-mile tollway opened in 2011, and it was fully completed in 2014.
Hogan’s office announced Wednesday that the governor would be appearing at an ICC dedication ceremony Thursday morning on Muncaster Mill Road in Rockville, near the highway, but was mum on the details. Ehrlich said he didn’t know what to expect.
“I know nothing,” he said. “I’m showing up at 9:45.”

Well, if his family didn't own slaves, it's probably alright.
I'm not offended.
They sure as hell wont be singing Maryland My Maryland. Shame on Hogan who started off great and is now letting us down.
Miss ol Gov Ehrlich!
