Yesterday, Shore Progress endorsed Governor Wes Moore and Lieutenant Governor Aruna Miller as they seek reelection this November citing their commitment to growing Maryland’s economy, investing in infrastructure, making our communities safer, and strengthening our public schools.
“Shore Progress has been laser-focused on strengthening Maryland’s Eastern Shore, and I’m proud to have them by our side as we continue to deliver for the hard-working families in their communities,” said Governor Wes Moore. “Whether it’s delivering high speed internet for our communities on the Shore, improving rural healthcare access, or backing our watermen–we must ensure that opportunity exists for every Marylander, regardless of their zip code. It’s why we’ll continue to make critical investments in the Eastern Shore’s public schools, local police departments, and in the vital infrastructure that surrounds the Chesapeake Bay and powers our economy.”
“Shore Progress is proud to endorse Governor Wes Moore for re-election because his administration has shown that the Eastern Shore is not an afterthought,” said Shore Progress Chair Jared Schablein. “From investing in our public schools and infrastructure to creating good-paying jobs and supporting working Shore families, Governor Moore has delivered real results for communities across the Shore. We look forward to working alongside him to continue building a Maryland where every community, no matter its ZIP code, has the opportunity to succeed.”
