Additional funding to hire correctional and police officers
I ask for your support this year for an additional $7 million dollars in this year's budget to fund 155 additional correctional officers. I also ask for your support for $2 million additional dollars to protect Maryland families from sexual predators,
with advanced Global Positioning Systems that track offenders and give law enforcement, as well as families, a heads up to protect their own children. I ask for your support also for an additional $500,000 for the Maryland State Police.
