“Most recently, he served as the Chair of the Anne Arundel County Democratic Central Committee for two years, most prominently helping protect our Board of Education from far-right extremists and building a better party infrastructure in our County. Currently, he serves as a Trustee on the Anne Arundel County Library Board and on the Advisory Committee for the Maryland Clean Energy Center.” (Campaign website (dylanbehler.com))
“Yet, despite all of that, I still believe government can be a force for good. I believe it because I’ve lived it. Without programs like Medicaid, Free and Reduced Meals in School, and Pell Grants, I wouldn’t have had the same opportunities in life. Those investments made all the difference for me — and I want every Marylander to have that same chance.” (Campaign website (dylanbehler.com))
