$3 billion budget deficit looms as legislators return to Annapolis

ANNAPOLIS, Md. — The budget is all anyone’s talking about in Annapolis.

Maryland faces a $3 billion dollar budget shortfall and people want to know how Governor Wes Moore and state lawmakers will balance it.

The governor announced he has a plan to make $2 billion in cuts — but didn’t provide details.

“I inherited a structural deficit when I became the governor because the state was both spending at a clip that was not sustainable, and we were not growing at a clip that was embarrassing. So we’ve got to be able to reverse that trend,” said Moore in his opening day press conference.

Moore is set to unveil his budget in a week.

Senate President Bill Ferguson echoed the sentiment of the governor.
