Maryland ranked as the 38th least “unfair” state in Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy’s semi-annual taxation report, published on Wednesday.

The 435th session of the Maryland General Assembly convenes at noon, with swearing-ins, receptions and family time; there’s a large crop of freshmen, some with rather interesting backgrounds; Gov.-elect Hogan taps Keiffer Mitchell to oversee charter school expansion, new transportation secretary with highway building creds.

Young to push right-to-die legislation; GOP keeps caucus leadership; and O’Malleys moving out.
