💨 Abstract

Wes Moore's office disagreed with lawmakers' claims that his administration was pursuing a similar reparations plan after he vetoed their bill. The bill, supported by the Legislative Black Caucus, would have created a commission to study historic racism's effects on Black residents and recommend benefits. Moore vetoed it, favoring direct action. Lawmakers plan to override the veto, aiming for reparative justice. The disagreement highlights differing approaches to addressing racial injustices in Maryland.
