Economist Anirban Basu told members of the Maryland Economic Development Association that he foresees what some Maryland Republicans have been predicting for months. Taxes will go up next year, he said, and state aid to local governments will go down.

County leaders: state should cut teacher pensions, not local aid

Lawmakers should consider reducing teacher pensions rather than shifting costs to local governments, two county executives said Wednesday as local leaders sought to prevent more cuts to local aid.

The posters put up by the staff of U.S. Sen. Ben Cardin said, “Thank you Howard County,” but they might just as well have said “Thank you, Ben” from the elected officials who met with the retiring senator Friday.

The effusive praise and thanks for Cardin’s 58 years of elected service were mutual in the second leg of his “farewell tour” of the state. He’s represented Marylanders for 18 years in the Senate, 20 years in the U.S. House and 20 years in the state House of Delegates, including eight as speaker.
