District 31 Anne Arundel County
Delegate Don Dwyer
I am considered one of the most conservative members of the Maryland General Assembly. I serve District 31 in Anne Arundel County. I will stand for upholding the Constitution- both the United states Constitution and the Constitution of Maryland. I am currently serving my second term as a State Delegate and will seek re-election in 2010.

Six Boys and Thirteen Hands
Mar 16th
This story (Author Unknown) reveals the dedication that our soldiers have for our country. Let us always remember that men have bled and died for the freedoms that today we take for granted. We should honor all of our veterans and recognize the sacrifice that each family gives as their loved ones defend our Nation and our freedom.
Thanks so much to Mr. Frank Eberle for forwarding this touching story!

My Fight against Gangs in MD
Oct 21st
Please take some time to check out the new gang initiatives website thanks to Baltimore/Washington High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area.
I have participated in Maryland’s Gang Task Force, and sponsored or co-sponsored the following bills from 2007-2010:
1. Consecutive Sentencing – (Co-Sponsored by Dwyer) HB1269: Require that a sentence for participation in a criminal gang be served consecutively to any other criminal sentence. This bill was adopted, but amended to only apply in the event of a murder.
2. Definition of Criminal Gang Member – (Sponsored by Dwyer) HB1307: Require the development of a definition of gang member that is consistent across the State More >

Why I Support the Second Amendment
Sep 21st
I support the second amendment because I took an oath to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution and the Maryland Constitution and all of their amendments.
The Declaration of Independence recognizes the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Without the right to Keep and Bear Arms, we the people would have no defense against a tyrannical government. Additionally, without the right to bear arms, we would not have the ability to protect ourselves, our lives, or our property as the Founders so clearly intended.
I have always campaigned with the Second Amendment as one of my core issues. I More >
The Liberal Spin on the TEA Party
Sep 17th
Across America today, the general media is portraying conservative TEA Party activists as some radical, racist group of individuals who are out to destroy America.
Conservatives and TEA Party activists must stay focused. The TEA in TEA Party stands for Taxed Enough Already. Do not let the opposition portray this movement as anything else. Do not let the liberal media define you.
The truth is, the majority of elected Liberals (mostly Democrat) and Party Leaders are the real threat to America. Don’t take my word for it, simply look at who opposes stopping Illegal Immigration in Maryland, for one example. Governor O’Malley, Attorney More >
“Hate Rhetoric” with respect to Views on Homosexuality
Sep 16th
The following article is an excellent one. The emphasis is added, and highlights his main points. I have been accused time and again of having this “hate” toward homosexuals because I disagree with their lifestyle, which simply isn’t so. Joe Sobran has been accused of the same, and explains why this “use of hate” is an illegitimate one.

Thank you!
Sep 16th
I am honored by the support I received in the primary election. Maryland needs strong, convicted statesmen to lead her through these tough times, and I gladly accept the challenge before me. I promise to continue to uphold the State and US Constitutions, I promise to continue to defend your rights as citizens, and I promise to do these to the best of my ability. Thank you.
Dwyer Not Endorsed by the Gazette
Sep 2nd
I was not surprised nor should you be that the Gazette did not endorse me yet again.
It is obvious that our local news paper is more liberal than I am. Fortunately, their editorial attacks only bolster my supporters.
I did not go to Annapolis to make friends, nor did I go to go along get along; I went to make a difference. I have and will continue to defend the Constitution on which this great State was founded.
The editors somehow believe that it is inappropriate for me to stand and defend what I believe in as an elected official. They also believe it was irresponsible for More >
