Maryland Republican Party Passes Resolutions

The Maryland Republican Party adopted three resolutions during its convention at the Grand Hotel in Ocean City on Saturday.

The first resolution was a bylaw amendment that gave county parties more power to remove members if they are threatening other members with physical violence. Unfortunately, this is something that *has* occurred during recent years. The amendment passed with some amendments to the original proposal that ensured due process for members facing the removal process.

A second resolution urged Governor Larry Hogan to veto House Bill 1272, which prohibits the Department of Health accepting federal Title X funding if the Title X funding cannot be used for abortion. It also requires the state to fully fund the Department of Health to make up the difference if Title X fundings is not accepted. Basically, it guarantees that abortions would continue to be funded by the state. This resolution passed by a unanimous voice vote.

There is no Republican Party any longer that stands for its core principals like free trade and fiscal responsibly, etc. We are now ruled by a former Democrat who changed parties to get elected as a Republican , an I quote " I would run as a Republican, they are the dumbest group of voters who believe anything they see on Fox News" unquote

There are many former Democrats who switched Party's and I am one of them and you won't find a more conservative Republican like myself. Trump is doing a great job, BTW. Have you seen the economy since he has been in Office?

Hogan's got to wait and see what Trump thinks, so he can vote the opposite way on the law. Then he can say it was an anti-Trump vote.

Then 8:04 , I guess you , like me, according to Trump, are members of the dumbest group of voters,...Republicans .

I just have not switched parties , hopefully after Trump leaves the Republican Party can return to its principles
