Gas Bandits Are to Blame for Current Gas
Prices
- by Delegate Pat
McDonough (R - 7) -
Jesse James and his gang of
thieves are small change compared to the robbery being perpetrated upon
the American people by the “Gas Bandits.” Politicians, speculators, oil
barons and hustlers have combined to push consumers over a barrel. The
current gas price hike, for the most part, is being promoted by
commodities trading hustlers in a wide open market.
The real price of a barrel of oil is not being controlled by market
demand.

Getting Back to Work
- by Delegate John
Olszewski, Jr. (D - 6) -
It is hard to believe, but it has been almost five months since my last
legislative update. I am humbled to have earned another term to
serve as your Delegate, and I am excited to have the opportunity to now
re-engage the community with information about legislative
developments, community milestones and opportunities for community
engagement.
At the state level, the discussion will remain largely centered on the
ever-present budget deficit. At a recent hearing of the Spending
Affordability Committee, we learned that the projected deficit for the
upcoming fiscal year is $1.6 billion.

Reading Garden Symbolizes
Perry Hall’s “Can-Do” Spirit
- by Councilman David
Marks (R - 5) -
I was very happy to join other community leaders at the
dedication of the new reading garden at the Perry Hall library.
The garden is named in honor of George Barrett, longtime president of
Rosedale Federal Savings and Loan, the institution that provided major
funding for this project. The garden is the last major
improvement to the library, which opened in March of 2009 to rave
reviews from the community.
In reflecting over the recent year, the reading garden symbolizes
the “can-do” spirit of the Perry Hall community. I am very proud
to represent Perry Hall on the Baltimore County Council, as well as
wonderful communities such as Towson, Loch Raven, Parkville and Perry
Hall.
