Legislating loves company.

I will be testifying next to Attorney General Brian Frosh later this week.

The subject: authorizing his office to bring a law suit to prevent arbitrary or unconstitutional federal actions from harming Maryland residents.

Unlike his counterpart in Washington state, our AG cannot initiate a legal action regarding the travel ban or any future action improperly affecting such areas as our environment, schools, and civil liberties.

I know the issue, but Brian knows it better.

I contacted his office so that we could coordinate our testimony.

I’ve asked that amendments be drafted to my two election bills that have public hearings tomorrow afternoon.

The lawyer drafting the amendments told me that she did not expect to get to them until tomorrow morning.

“That’s when I usually finish editing my written testimony,” I replied. “I’ve got company.”
