Micro breweries in Calvert and St. Mary's counties.
Government operates best in the sunshine.
Good laws evolve through frank and open discussion, lively give and take and thorough public debate. I have seen, both in Congress and in the Maryland General Assembly, bills introduced with no public discussion. Inevitably, opponents learn about them and complain bitterly. Invariably problems emerge with the bills which could have been avoided if both sides had input right from the start. I don't know why sponsors feel they can squeak by something in a public forum such as a legislative body without the word getting out sooner or later.
