The Maryland Chamber Political Action Committee issued its endorsements for state legislative races for the November 7 General Election.

“We support candidates who support business and who will make policy decisions that foster a healthy, competitive business climate for our state,” said Maryland Chamber PAC Chairman Arthur D. Ebersberger.
