Very civilly, if this issue is so important to you why are you not actively seeking information about it instead of asking random people who may also not know anything to inform you? If you want to know what the state is up to as of right now, the link below is the best place. Otherwise, it would be recommended to wait until summer once the legislative session is over and Gov. Moore’s team has had some time to better develop their climate policy agenda.

I voted for him specifically because his priorities that he campaigned upon WERE my priorities, aggressive DCUM troll.
He had exactly 3 platforms on his campaign website, one of which was climate.

He’s been in office for a couple months and you are already complaining about being BETRAYED. Grow up.

Also, you probably need to be more specific about what climate change policies you want him to pursue, because I doubt that he shares your pet “climate” policy.

NP. Wow, you are a boiling storm of negativity. Why are you trying to squelch discussion about a pol addressing the climate emergency? You sound like you have serious mental health issues.

You sound ill informed and corny.

His new DNR secretary is awesome
Lots of good climate stuff going on in the GA.
Try actually looking into what is going to what is in the works rather than ranting on a parenting messaging board.

You sound like the one ranting.

You clearly have not read his State of the State address. Just skimming through this thing for 30 seconds and I have already identified a number of priorities that he outlined there:

- “Prioritize Equity, Labor and Justice”: He has a big economic justice initiative that includes accelerating phase-in of the $15 minimum wage statewide.

- “Incentivize the electrification of personal and public vehicles”: Funding has been restored for excise tax exemption of new BEVs under $50k starting July 1 and he has committed to ensuring this is funded throughout his term.

- “Invest in cleaner public transit”: He has been talking a lot about the Baltimore Red Line, appointed Wiedelfeld as head of MDOT and is committed to working with the county on I-270 expansion options to include BRT.

It seems that you are just not paying attention.

The OP doesn’t want to hear about that. OP wants Gov. Brown to demolish the American Legion Bridge or something.

Brown is the AG. He lost the gubernatorial election a few years ago.

Yes. The General Assembly session convened on January 11 (and will adjourn on April 10), he was inaugurated on January 18, today is February 19, and he's the governor of Maryland, not the speaker of the Maryland House of Representatives or majority leader of the Maryland Senate. If you're interested in his climate stance, look to his administrative actions, not his legislative priorities.

This is splitting hairs- op is right that not a word about climate has been heard yet.

You are a sad and pathetic person. Get a life.

Local politicians can do nothing on climate other than make their constituents lives worse. Op is an idiot for voting for Moore on climate issues.

I found these by googling "Wes Moore climate" and they were on the first page of results.
