About Maryland Subsidiarity Maryland Subsidiarity discusses local and state ideas that will improve our communities and shape our world. Subsidiarity is the principle that the smaller social or political entity or institution ought to be given priority to make decisions on issues that affect them, rather than leaving those decisions to be made by the whole group. In other words, whenever possible, the individual should come before the community, the community before the state, the state before the federation, and so on. In this context, the responsibility of the bigger institution is to enable the smaller one to perform its tasks and to provide it with any necessary support.

Last week, amid news reports of self-dealing by members of the board of directors of The University of Maryland Medical System (known as UMMS), the CEO of the system, Robert Chrencik, was placed on a leave of absence while the board hired an outside firm to conduct an audit of the System’s contracting practices and its conflicts-of-interest policies. Several board members have resigned, including Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh, who had served on the UMMS board for more than 18 years. Other board members who currently have business relationships with the System have also been asked to take a leave of absence from the board. When Luke Broadwater of the Sun wrote about the allegations that Mayor Pugh and others were profiting from their affiliation with the UMMS board, reaction in Annapolis was swift, and unequivocal. Maryland Governor Larry Hogan, Senate President Mike Miller, and Speaker of the House Mike Busch (himself a member of the UMMS board), all condemned the practice of awarding contracts to businesses that were connected to board members. A bill proposed by Speaker Busch is being fast-tracked through the House, and a bill introduced on the Senate side is also making its way through the legislative process . Both bills aim to address conflicts of interest and financial disclosures by board members. Sen. Jill P. Carter, who represents District 41 in the MD Senate and serves on the Judicial Proceedings Committee, among others, is the sponsor of Senate Bill 619. Her bill would prohibit the UMMS board from engaging in the kind of routine self-dealing that appears to have been prevalent at the quasi-private enterprise. Senator Carter joins us on the line from Annapolis.And later, we consider whether the situation at the University of Maryland Medical System is unique: What should non-profit boards do to ensure that they are acting according to best practices when it comes to ethics, conflicts of interest and financial disclosures? Tom is joined in the studio by Heather Iliff, the president and CEO of Maryland NonProfits, an association of more than 1,000 nonprofit organizations. that offers advice and training about best ethical practices...especially by non-profit boardsDoug Donavan joins us as well. He’s an investigative reporter for the Baltimore Sun, who has been covering the University of Maryland Medical System story as it has evolved over the past week or so.

During the height of zero tolerance the voices of dissent among the political establishment were few and far between. We talk to two people who fought back, Former State Delegate Jill P. Carter and Public Defender Todd Oppenhiem about what they experienced and how it affected their lives.
Today, we continue our series of Conversations with the Candidates, in the run-up to Maryland's June 26th primary elections.Maryland’s General Assembly District 41 has had more than its share of upheaval in recent years. Sen. Lisa Gladden represented the district for 14 years before retiring in February 2017 for health reasons. Del. Nathaniel Oaks was appointed to fill her seat, and four months later, he was indicted in federal court on nine counts of fraud and bribery. In November, prosecutors added obstruction of justice charges. Oaks denied the charges, remained in the Senate, and registered to run for re-election in the primary next month. In late March, Oaks changed his mind. He resigned from the legislature, pleaded guilty and attempted to remove his name from the primary ballot. Oaks will be sentenced on July 17. He faces 8-10 years in prison. Additional attempts to remove Oaks’s name from the ballot failed; his name will indeed appear on the ballot next to those of two other Democratic candidates.Those two candidates are Tom’s guests today in Studio A.Until last week, Jill P. Carter served as the Director of the Office of Civil Rights and Wage Enforcement in Baltimore City. Before that, she served for three terms in the House of Delegates representing the 41st District. Carter is 53 years old. A graduate of Western High School, she was born and raised in the city. She lives in the Hunting Ridge neighborhood of District 41.J.D. Merrill taught at his alma mater, City College High School from 2013 to 2016. He also served for two years as a special assistant to the chief of staff at City Schools headquarters on North Avenue. Merrill is 27 years old. He and his wife, Grace O’Malley, live in the Wyndhurst neighborhood of Baltimore City, one street over from where he was born and raised. This is the first time he has run for public office.Further complicating matters, last week, Gov. Larry Hogan appointed Ms. Carter to fill the remaining time in Sen. Oaks’ term. So, for the moment, Jill Carter is the incumbent Senator from the 41st District, although the legislature is not in session. It will reconvene in January of next year. The winner of the primary in this race will not face any opposition in the general election in November.We streamed our conversation live on the WYPR Facebook page.

Ingrained in her since she was a child, justice and equality matter most to Jill P. Carter. Jill is the daughter of prominent civil rights activist Walter P. Carter, and she now serves as director of the Office of Civil Rights and Wage Enforcement. Before joining Mayor Catherine Pugh’s administration and taking over the office in January, Jill served as a state delegate for 14 years. She takes over the civil rights office at a pivotal time; Jill now oversees the Civilian Review Board, which investigates complaints against police, though police don’t have to heed the board’s recommendations. Additionally, the creation of the Civilian Oversight Task Force was one of many police reform measures mandated under the consent decree reached between the city and the U.S. Department of Justice, and part of that task force’s job will be to assess the Civilian Review Board. If that all sounds a little jargon-y, don’t worry; Jill talked about feeling marginalized in the Maryland House of Delegates, taking over an underutilized office and some of the early experiences that shaped her.
