Legislative Bulletin

Each April we, at Harris Jones & Malone, LLC, have the pleasure of sharing with our clients and colleagues some of the highlights from the 90 day session of the Maryland General Assembly.  This is by no means an exhaustive list of all the law that came out of the last three months, but merely a sampling of the legislation most likely to affect our state.  We hope you find this a valuable resource.

2010 Legislative Wrap-Up

Reporter's Notebook:

Name-calling

Lobbyists have been called lots of things over the years — some are unprintable; most are derisive.

Few, we’re guessing, have ever been dubbed Yoda, Godfather, Master or Coach, the terms used by the Maryland Computer Services Association in a recent e-mail to exalt Bob Enten and Tim Perry for their work as the lobbying masterminds behind the tech tax repeal.

‘‘They defined our overall strategy,” the e-mail said. ‘‘We merely listened and executed. We owe them everything.”

Not to be left out, the group also offered props to hired guns Lisa Harris Jones and Kevin O’Keeffe, who aided the organization’s efforts. ‘‘Each are dynamos of boundless energy and optimism and know everybody,” the e-mail said. ‘‘We may have set a record one day, meeting 30-some legislators in just a couple hours.”

And we thought lobbyists fell somewhere between telemarketers and used car salesmen in the professional pecking order ... just above reporters.
