Top Issues for Maryland in 2023

The Regional Policy Leadership Series, invites elected leaders to participate in open conversations on regional policies, priorities and issues impacting the business community.

Last week, Steve Proctor, president and CEO of G.S. Proctor & Associates lead the discussion with Maryland Senate President Bill Ferguson and Maryland Speaker of the House Adrienne A. Jones.

Mental health, transportation and workforce development were among the top issues that legislators will address in the 2023 Maryland General Assembly. A key theme throughout the discussion was the importance of a clear line of communication with the District and Virginia as well as the business community to create a more prosperous, accessible, and livable region. 

The Board of Trade and our members are committed to addressing these challenges and elevating the region’s inclusive growth and global competitiveness.
