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.
