Coming Up
2026 Legislative Session
The Maryland General Assembly convened on January14, 2026 and will sit for 90 days, adjourning on April 13, 2026. You can find out where specific bills are in the process by checking Current Status of Priority Bills under The Latest, or follow bills on a particular issue on each issue's 2026 Session page. Each week, we post a blog on our Home page providing a summary of recent events and upcoming matters, including bill hearings, important votes and approaching deadlines. When we become aware of voting sessions or subcommittee work sessions on priority bills, that information is added to the Current Status of Priority Bills (not in the hearing schedule below), but we cannot guarantee to capture every legislative discussion on the bills.
As ever, we will need your help in moving Maryland closer to Beloved Community. Please provide feedback or ask a question if you cannot find something, and keep an eye out for our weekly Digest every Monday and alerts on how you can make a difference in passing important legislation.
