Where Kathy stands
Government accountability
In 2026 the Governor called a special session to make partisan gerrymandering easier to write into the Maryland Constitution. Kathy went back to fight it.
- Aug 3 – 5
- The 2026 special session she returned for
- 2020 – 21
- Transparency and Accountability Reform Commission
- Vice Chair
- Maryland Freedom Caucus
A supermajority that is never seriously questioned develops habits. Kathy has spent her career as one of the few people in the building whose job is to ask the questions nobody in the majority has to answer.
In January 2026 the House passed a new congressional map; the Senate rejected it. Rather than accept that, the Governor called every delegate and senator back to Annapolis on August 3rd through 5th — not to lower a tax or cut an energy bill, but to change the state constitution itself and make partisan gerrymandering easier in every future election.
Kathy served on the State Transparency and Accountability Reform Commission and has pushed for open government, honest election administration, and district lines drawn for voters rather than for incumbents.
“They are doing something much worse — changing the rules to benefit political power. They want to rewrite the Maryland Constitution to make partisan gerrymandering easier for every future election.”
What Kathy is fighting for
- Fair, compact districts drawn for voters, not incumbents
