How can Howard County residents get involved in passing legislation in Annapolis? What environmental legislation is currently being considered by legislators in this session of the General Assembly? What are the costs and benefits of these bills, and what can residents do to help get them passed?

Speakers:

and several of the sponsoring State Legislators
