EARTHQUAKE!!!

This morning's 5am earthquake (a 3.7 centered in Gaithersburg) was a reminder about the need to make public safety a top priority on the next Montgomery County Council. Our first responders are trained and well-prepared for many scenarios, but our political leaders have failed to prepare the general public for such disasters, and we currently lack sufficient hospital beds for a minor catastrophe, much less a major one.

This leadership vacuum must be filled by new councilmembers on November 2.
