Convention Wrap-Up

Written by Rushern L. Baker, III on September 18, 2012, 10:53AM

 

Friends,   The convention is over, and the folks who gathered in Charlotte from all over the country last week have made their way home. But I know the energy we felt--and that Democrats across this nation felt as they watched our president speak--is still alive.

Dear Friend,

Summer has arrived in Prince George's County. Kids are home from school, pools are open, neighbors are throwing block parties, and the Bakers are barbequing. I hope you enjoyed our 1st Annual Summer Family BBQ and Picnic last week. It was great to see so many people out celebrating what we've already accomplished together, and talking about what's next on our road from good to great.

The summer has been a busy time for Team Baker. School may be out, but we're making sure that our students are still learning. Maryland's first Middle College program just opened at Prince George's Community College, and the participati... read more>>
