Answering Questions From The Maryland Green Party Assembly

This year the Maryland Green Party hosted it's 25th Annual Assembly. You can see the speech I gave proclaiming "Ralph was Right."

I also facilitated a panel of Green Party candidates for the 2026 election season. After the panel several candidates asked to hear my take on the questions I asked them.

I put together this video of my answers to the questions I asked (and some I did not ask)

Future Plans?

I like the format for this video and I think it is good practice to answer questions and see them on video so I am thinking about making this a regular thing.

It would be some combination of questions I generate, questions from the public, and questions other candidates and party members share.

More on this later, but for now check out this video and let me know what you think!
