“Marylanders we may never meet in our lifetimes will be affected by the actions we take, or fail to take, in the next four years,” said Scott Goldberg, Candidate for Montgomery County Council At-Large. “The ethos of Leave No One Behind doesn’t have a timeline and if future generations cannot afford to live here, it’s our responsibility to make sure that they can and our fault if they can’t. Governor Moore understands this and I cannot wait to tackle this challenge head on, together.”
