Dwyer’s Legislation
What Happened to HB 1156?
May 21st
HB1156 Victims Rights Bill
I suspected all along that the Democrat majority would kill my bill. I was quite suprised when it passed both the House and Senate
without one no vote. At that point it seemed like it would certainly be signed into law. Well as we know, the Governor is a powerful man.
You see, my bill DID NOT have a crossfile. I did that on purpose to prevent this type of game from happening. As we approached the final two days of session, my Chairman told me that the Senate was holding my bill because he was not going to pass Senator Simonaires More >

I consider this to be an important addition in law giving victim’s families the ability to be heard and have a sense of closure when a loved one is killed in an automobile accident.

Health Care Freedom Act
Mar 19th
Yesterday, I requested an emergency bill entitled Maryland Health Freedom Act. I am extremely concerned about the massive, intrusive, and expensive and UNCONSTITUTIONAL health care bill that Democrats on the Federal level are still trying to jam down America’s throat. I have watched along with many of you, the town hall meetings packed with citizens shouting to be heard while arrogant elected officials talk on their cell phones and insult their intelligence.
