January 15, 2013 – Hour 1

 

We look at the battle brewing in the Maryland State Legislature over allowing Baltimore to float a $2.4 billion bond for school construction. To discuss the proposal and the controversy surrounding it, we speak to:
  • Bebe Verdery, Director of Education Reform for ACLU Maryland;
  • Hassan Giordano, columnist for the Baltimore Independent Examiner;
  • Michael Sarbanes, Executive Director, Baltimore City Public Schools’ Office of Engagement;
  • and George Liebmann, Volunteer Executive Director of the Baltimore-based Calvert Institute for Policy Research.
