The 2006 legislation creating 5 commissioner districts was defeated due to the efforts of the Carroll County Democratic Central Committee.  The chairman of the CCDCC sent a letter requesting that the Democrat Chair of the Senate Committee considering the bill kill the legislation.  Later, the Democrat Chairman bragged that it was his personal lobbying [on the final day of the 2006 session] in the hallways of Annapolis that killed the bill.

Hopefully, if legislation creating commissioner districts is refiled in the 2008 session, the Democrats will not put politics ahead of the Carroll County citizens' desire to have commissioner districts.

Bob Kittleman Scholarship Fund

When Senator Robert Kittleman passed away on September 11, 2004, he left a legacy of public service from the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s and 1960s to the 22 years he served in the Maryland General Assembly.

Senator Kittleman worked to ensure that all Marylanders would have an opportunity to get an excellent education.  He said that "education is the great equalizer."  Senator Kittleman recognized that regardless of your income level, race, sex or ethnicity, with an education, every person can determine his or her destiny. 

It is for this reason that the Kittleman family formed the Bob Kittleman Scholarship Fund.  Please consider contributing to the Fund to help students get an opportunity to further their education.
