This Bill Ferguson mailer is incredibly misleading and I think voters deserve to know.
I’m a mom and a social worker in District 46. I’m not here to tell you who to vote for, but this mailer is not honest and it bothered me enough to post about it.
He’s claiming credit for standing up to ICE. He let the cooperation ban die FIVE YEARS in a row. Five years of families in our community living in fear. He passed it this year because it was INSANELY popular and an election year. That’s not leadership At all, that’s damage control.
He’s listing “making data centers pay their share” as some kind of win. Data centers are an environmental disaster. More of them means higher bills and more strain on the grid. Asking them to chip in a little more doesn’t fix that.
And he took $59k from BGE’s parent company while they were trying to charge us half a billion dollars for a project in the Peninsula… a part of Baltimore that is basically a ghost town. And didn’t speak out until Bobby’s video calling out BGE went viral.
Not saying Ferguson hasn’t done anything good. But there’s a candidate in this race who hasn’t taken a corporate dollar, was right on these issues before they were politically convenient, and isn’t sending mailers that require this much footnoting.
His name is Bobby LaPin. June 23rd.
