Why this exists

Citizens should not need a lobbyist—or a law degree—to follow state policy.

Official legislative sources are authoritative, but the volume and terminology can make it difficult to recognize which proposals affect your family, work, neighborhood, or rights.

This independent project organizes official Maryland data by everyday interests, preserves a visible record of changes, and connects information with practical civic participation.

Summaries are informational and may use AI. Always consult the linked official bill text, amendments, fiscal notes, and committee materials.

After generating the draft

What do I do with this letter?

The website prepares a draft; it does not send the letter or submit testimony for you.

Personalize and verify it. Read the official bill page, replace any bracketed prompts, and explain briefly how the proposal affects you or your community. Your home address helps an elected official confirm that you are a constituent; avoid including unnecessary sensitive information.
Choose the right recipient. While a bill is in committee, contact the assigned committee and your own Maryland senator and delegates. If the General Assembly has passed the bill and it is awaiting executive action, direct the request to the Governor.
Choose how to deliver it. For formal written testimony, follow the committee's witness-signup instructions through MyMGA and observe that committee's filing window and document rules. For ordinary advocacy, paste the letter into the legislator's official email or contact form. Printing and mailing is also available, but may be too slow near a hearing or vote.
Keep a record and follow the bill. Save the final letter and any submission confirmation. Continue checking the official bill page because hearing dates, amendments, committee assignments, and bill status can change.
