- ➤ Montgomery County Councilmembers have announced a bill that will require labor peace agreements for hotel projects in which the County holds a financial interest, aiming to prevent labor disputes that could delay events and lower revenue (a measure prompted by a boycott at the Conference Center). The proposal will also let the County’s chief administrative officer meet with Marriott to discuss adjusting contracts and protect public-private partnerships. The MoCo Show
- ➤ Governor Wes Moore announced on Thursday that a $19M Customer Relief Fund—funded by Exelon and managed by local nonprofits—provided one-time energy bill assistance to limited- and middle-income Marylanders in the BGE, Pepco and Delmarva Power areas; approved grants range from $250 to $750 for BGE customers and up to $300 for Pepco and Delmarva customers.
