Maryland Gov. Moore to make announcements on community investments, cannabis convictions
Maryland Governor Wes Moore is expected to announce an initiative to expand investments in communities he says have been impacted by disinvestment and discriminatory policies, along with an expansion to his executive order which pardoned more than 175,000 marijuana convictions. The announcements will happen at a community roundtable in Cambridge Thursday afternoon. Moore announces program to create affordable housing Just last week, Moore announced the UPLIFT program, a new initiative which aims to boost property values and generate wealth for homeowners. The program, funded with $10 million from the fiscal year 2024 budget, provides financing to housing developers to build affordable housing. Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake, a non-profit homebuilder, will receive $1.25 million to create 26 new three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bathroom homes. Overall, the goal of the UPLIFT program is to transform vacant lots and structures into quality affordable housing. Moore said the program targets "One of the major contributors to the racial wealth gap is inequitable appraisal values in communities that have been affected by redlining. That's why, in this Season of Action, we are taking concrete steps to boost property values and build pathways to greater wealth creation for homeowners," Moore said in a statement. In communities impacted by redlining, homes appraise for less than the cost to build due to patterns of disinvestment, according to the governor's office. More than 175,000 convictions pardoned On June 17, 2024, Moore pardoned more than 175,000 marijuana convictions in an executive order. The order impacted misdemeanor charges for individuals found guilty of possessing small amounts of marijuana. More than 150,000 of the convictions that were pardoned were misdemeanors for simple possession of cannabis, and another 18,000 misdemeanors were for use or possession with intent to use drug paraphernalia. About 25% of the convictions that were pardoned were from Baltimore City, the governor's office said.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (FOX 56) — State leaders and advocates for the older population are taking a stand against adult maltreatment in Kentucky, which includes Kentuckians in the older population. World Elder Abuse Awareness Day is June 15, and advocates packed the Capitol Rotunda on Friday to get the momentum going for this initiative. Chris Clements came to plant flags to represent some of his family members. 'I planted a flag in honor of my father, Keith Clements, and also one for my mother-in-law, who are two very important older adults in our family,' Clements said. Clements is with the Louisville-based organization Blueprint 502. Specifically, he's involved in Project Warm, where he works with older adults.

We want to let them know that we are thinking of them, appreciate them, and we love them so much,' Clements said. Another big topic of discussion was health care and meals, which Governor Andy Beshear said he supports, even signing a proclamation making June Elder Abuse and Exploitation Awareness Month. 'Our seniors deserve respect, and they deserve our care. Together, we can ensure that every senior has the resources and the opportunity to live a long, full, and happy life,' Beshear said. Even the younger generation is joining in, with students from Bath County High School like junior Wrangler Helton also taking it on himself to serve those older.

These populations need it more than ever,' Clements added. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
