Funding
Education
Norm Conway spent 39 years
teaching our kids; so he knows firsthand how important good
schools are to our community. That’s why he fought to boost
education funding to historic levels - a total of $4.5 billion
this year alone. He also secured over $11 million this year for
school construction and renovation in Worcester and Wicomico
Counties.
Improving Healthcare
Affordable health care
should be available to all Marylanders. Norm Conway led the
fight to boost funding for Medicare and children’s health
programs by $220 million so more seniors and families can get
the coverage they need. He supported a bill to recruit and
retain doctors; so that when you get sick you will not have to wait
as long to see your doctor.
Honoring Those Who Served
Veterans and their families make personal sacrifices to
protect our freedoms and rights. That’s why Norm Conway fights
for veterans and their families in Annapolis. This year he
supported a $5,000 tax credit for military retirees and expanded
scholarships for veterans who want to continue their education
at a public college or university in Maryland.
Farming & Our Rural Legacy
Farming is a way of life on the Eastern Shore yet farms are
under pressure by development and the changing economy. Norm
Conway brought farmers and environmentalists together to tackle
this issue. He turned their ideas into a landmark bill to help
farmers stay in business and promote agricultural practices
that will help clean up the Chesapeake Bay.
