Governor Moore Testifies Before House Ways and Means Committee in Support of The Keep Our Heroes Home Act

Statement

Governor Wes Moore yesterday testified in support of The Keep Our Heroes Home Act, presented as House Bill 554 before the House Ways and Means Committee, marking the first time a sitting governor has testified in support of a bill since 2014. The act is a major component of the governor's legislative agenda to support veterans and their families.

"Maryland's veterans start small businesses, serve on boards, and bring their talents to companies that are driving Maryland's economy forward," said Governor Moore. "These public servants start families, make friends, and build their lives here in Maryland--and yet we're losing them to other states. I believe that this legislation stands to be among the most impactful that you will consider this session."
