Christopher T. Adams is registered as a Republican and currently serves as a Maryland State Delegate in District 37B for Caroline, Dorchester, Talbot, and Wicomico Counties. He has been a member of the House of Delegates since 2015. He owns Value Enterprises, LLC (Value Carpet One) and a company called S. Lee Smith Jr., Inc. (family business in residential & commercial real estate).
It appears that Adams has been using his elected seat to derive personal benefit through his businesses by contracting with state agencies and municipalities, which are all funded by taxpayer dollars through the State of Maryland. Using inside knowledge and connections, he has introduced and blocked legislation to serve and protect his personal areas of interest. It also appears that the state and county municipalities knowingly do business with the Delegate’s companies in exchange for political and legislative favors.
The Maryland State Ethics Commission requires elected officials to file a Financial Disclosure to report all of the interest and assets, which is designed to ensure that no conflicts of interest exist in an elected seat of the General Assembly. This is governed by the General Provisions of the Maryland Public Ethics Laws (starting on page 42 in section 5−512 Disqualification—Presumption of conflict).
It’s getting so you don’t need to know anyone’s business or background. Just look at them and use Horse Sense they say not to judge a book by its cover but just LOOK at the people we have at every level of politics they don’t even have to open their mouths or mumble their pitch. Don’t trust anyone that gets involved in it and pretends it’s for anyone’s benefit but their own. I don’t care what they say or how it may agree with my beliefs or position NONE of them are to be trusted. If they were to be they would have REAL jobs.
Oops
Chris had a lot of splaining to do!
Is this not his family business? ARE Legislators not allowed to work the 9 months they are not in ANNAPOLIS? Better look at all the Legislators, and PUBLIC Officials starting with the GOVERNOR when he has rerouted roads to benefit his financial status by increasing the value of is properties on several occasions to begin with.
If he was a demon crat
it would all be ok.
Like I said in a earlier post. Just a stuck up snotty S.O.B. Now we can add crooked politician to his resume. Chris do yourself a favor and resign.
