Voters in Baltimore City have much to consider on their ballots in the upcoming election, including several proposed amendments and initiatives. Early voting begins this week, are you ready weigh-in?
Judge Katie Curran O’Malley joins Midday to talk about Question 1, a proposed amendment on ballots statewide that would enshrine "an individual's fundamental right to reproductive freedom" in Maryland's constitution.
O'Malley is a retired judge on the District Court of Maryland, the former first lady of Maryland, a candidate for state's Attorney General and the Executive Director of the Women's Law Center.
