Gov. Wes Moore joins Midday to discuss his proposed state budget, unveiled this week.
The Democratic governor plan is to raise taxes for people who earn more than $500,000 a year, while lowering or holding taxes at current levels for those earning less. Moore said about two thirds of Marylanders will get a tax cut.
Overall, he is addressing the nearly $3 billion structural deficit by adding roughly a billion dollars in revenue, and cutting about $2 billion dollars in state spending. Moore proposes freezing funding for community schools, and cuts at public four-year colleges and universities.
