Maryland gets Closer to becoming a Sanctuary State In a last-minute move before the legislative session ended, Maryland lawmakers passed the controversial Community Trust Act, reigniting debate across the state. The bill limits cooperation between local law enforcement and federal immigration authorities in certain cases, including restricting communication about a person’s immigration status while in custody. The bill now heads to Gov. Wes Moore, who will "decide" whether to sign it into law. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip? Share your Mind!

Maryland Energy Bill Heads To Governor, Critics Call Savings “Embarrassing” Maryland lawmakers have passed the Utility RELIEF Act, sending the major energy bill to Governor Wes Moore for final approval. The legislation is aimed at lowering energy costs, with supporters highlighting an estimated savings of about $150 per year for residents through changes to programs like EmPOWER Maryland. Lawmakers also say expanded assistance programs could save some low-income households significantly more. The bill includes several additional measures, such as strengthening the power grid, requiring large energy users like data centers to pay a greater share of infrastructure costs, and limiting how utilities can recover certain expenses from ratepayers. However, not everyone is convinced the relief will be meaningful. Critics argue the savings amount to roughly $12.50 per month, calling it insignificant compared to rising energy costs. Some lawmakers also say the bill fails to address the core issue of energy supply, which continues to drive prices higher. Supporters pushed back, saying the legislation tackles both short-term affordability and long-term energy challenges, even if some of the future savings are difficult to calculate today. Utility companies, including BGE, Delmarva Power, and Pepco, say the bill takes important steps to expand energy assistance and improve affordability, while cautioning that certain policies could create long-term challenges if they limit infrastructure investment. The bill now heads to Governor Wes Moore, who is expected to decide whether to sign it into law. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip? Share your Mind!

Dozens of Cars Get Tires Blown Out Last Night On I-695 Near Owings Mills After Sudden Hazard Multiple drivers reported a chaotic and dangerous scene late last night on I-695 near the Owings Mills exit, where more than a dozen vehicles were seen pulled over with flat tires. According to several accounts, cars suddenly hit what appeared to be a severe roadway hazard, causing immediate tire blowouts, primarily on the front driver’s side. Some drivers believe the issue was a large pothole in the middle of the highway, while others reported being told by a state trooper that metal debris from an underpass may have caused the damage or contributed to the formation of the hazard. One driver described the experience as “driving home smoothly, then bam,” with no time to react before the tire was blown. Another passerby noted the unusual sight of 15+ cars lined along the shoulder with similar damage, calling it “surreal.” 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip?

Sen. Alsobrooks Says She Voted To Block Arms Sales To Israel Amid Iran War Senator Angela Alsobrooks released a statement, , saying she voted to block U.S. arms sales to Israel during the ongoing conflict with Iran. Alsobrooks argued the action was necessary to oppose what she described as an unauthorized war, stating that the U.S. became involved without Congressional approval. Baltimore Scoop's take: This isn’t surprising. It fits a broader pattern of political positioning where party alignment appears to take priority over what they see as a clear-cut issue of standing with an ally under attack. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip?

Crash Reported On Greenspring Ave Near Shomrei Emunah A crash was reported on Greenspring Avenue near Shomrei Emunah, with at least two vehicles involved and visible front-end damage. Traffic in the area was slowed as drivers navigated around the scene. --- Baltimore Scoop's Take: Over the past few months, we’ve posted multiple crashes in this exact stretch of Greenspring Ave including: • Another crash reported just two days ago in the same area • A separate multi-vehicle incident last month It could simply be the heavy volume of cars constantly moving through. But at a certain point, when crashes keep happening in the exact same location, it raises a bigger question. Something may not be working here.

People Of Our Community: Karson Kamenetz My name is Karson Kamenetz, and I’m running for Baltimore County Council. I have worked in the county, in Annapolis for the Chair of the Baltimore County House Delegation, and I was elected in 2022 to the Democratic State Central Committee. A lot of what has pulled me toward public service is the belief that local government has a responsibility to improve people's lives, and we have a responsibility to step up if they fall short. That means everything, from safer streets to cleaner communities, or just showing up to listen. I love this place, but I love it enough to believe we can do better. Baltimore County is home, and I've lived in the Pikesville-area for my entire life. I love it here. I'm a Baltimore Hebrew congregant, I've lobbied in Annapolis with the Baltimore Jewish Council, and I'm fairly active in The Associated. When my father Kevin was in office, it really felt like he was someone people in the community could count on. He showed up consistently, stayed engaged, and built trust over time. Those are values that have stuck with me, and taught me that being part of a community isn't about making appearances, it is about being present and dependable. If elected, those themes of constant engagement and follow-up are something you should expect and hold me accountable to. I am a people person, which is probably a good trait if you're asking strangers to talk to you all day. Running for office, I get to meet a lot of people that I would have never crossed paths with otherwise, and that is really what energizes me on a daily basis. I've learned a lot about the diverse communities that make up this new District 4 just by showing up and listening, and I've really enjoyed making a lot of genuine connections with people throughout the community. If there are issues you are hearing about in the community, especially in and around Pikesville, Smith Ave, and the surrounding neighborhoods, I hope you'll share them. I want to make sure your voices are heard and adequately represented by someone who is paying attention, knows how the county works, and who is willing to keep showing up to solve problems. That is the job I am running to do. I am a total techie. I grew up teaching myself how to code in languages that are now basically extinct. I even spent years doing cybersecurity red-team and blue-team competitions. I always found it especially satisfying to spend hours working on something and finally see the code do exactly what you expected, or finally find the vulnerability you knew had to be there. That mindset has shaped how I view my campaign and county government. Many systems are outdated, inefficient, or more expensive than they should be, and taxpayers ultimately pay the price. I believe having someone on the County Council who is focused on modernizing systems and using technology more intelligently is critical today. If something matters to you, show up for it. Showing up for what's right, even in the smallest of ways, is how we improve the quality of life for ourselves and our peers. It is how strong communities stay strong. People have more power than they think when they stay involved and look out for each other. "Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there." – Will Rogers I'm definitely hard on myself, which is probably just my version of refusing to sit there and get run over. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip?

Message to admin: Free Seed Library Hi, Baltimore Scoop, thanks for all the updates and advocacy for the community, can you post this? I'm Just trying to make gardening more accessible and enjoyable for families who may not have the motivation to go out and buy seeds. This is my small chesed to the community. Seed packs have gotten expensive, around $3 for a small pack with maybe 20 seeds. I buy in bulk instead, something like $10 for 300–1,000 seeds, use what I need, and give the rest away. 📍 Located at: 7010 Wallis Ave This model already exists in public libraries and nature centers, but I haven’t really seen it in the Jewish community yet. If it helps even a few families start a garden, it’s worth it. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip? Share your Mind!

Towson Mall says Goodbye to the Apple Store Apple says it is closing its Towson Town Center location after pointing to the departure of several retailers and what it called “declining conditions” at the mall. The store is expected to shut down in June. The move has drawn major attention because the Towson store has long been seen as one of the mall’s anchor retailers. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip?

Safe Green Transit Expanding, Seeking Volunteers And Drivers Across Baltimore Area Safe Green Transit (SGT), a local nonprofit focused on reducing traffic congestion and improving roadway safety, announced it is seeking additional community support as its operations continue to grow. A key part of SGT’s initiative is expanding reliable yellow school bus transportation to reduce the number of individual cars on the road during school commute hours, helping improve traffic flow and overall safety. SGT currently operates nine daily routes, with two more already confirmed for next year and an additional four routes in the planning stages. The organization also thanked Dalya Attar and Shelly Hettleman for securing $250,000 in this year’s budget to help subsidize transportation costs for families. The organization is currently recruiting volunteers for administrative work, planning, and field coordination, along with both volunteer and paid drivers to support existing routes and future expansion. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip?

Stop Sign Still Down At Gist And Fallstaff A stop sign at the corner of Gist Road and Fallstaff Road remains down more than a week after it was first reported, creating a potentially dangerous situation for drivers. According to community reports, motorists unfamiliar with the area are continuing to drive straight through the intersection, unaware that it is supposed to be a stop-controlled crossing. Residents say this has turned the corner into “an accident waiting to happen,” especially with regular traffic flowing through the area. It remains unclear when the city plans to replace the sign. Until then, drivers are urged to use extra caution when approaching the intersection. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip? Share your Mind!

Message To The Admin: Vaccination Status In Babysitting Groups I recently had a situation that I think is important for other parents in the community to be aware of. Please post this Baltimore Scoop. I was part of a babysitter share and only later discovered that one of the children was unvaccinated, after that child tested positive for measles. This was never disclosed ahead of time. With so many babysitter shares and group childcare setups in our community, I think it’s important to encourage open communication about children’s vaccination status. These environments involve close contact, and parents deserve to have the information they need to make informed decisions for their families. It may feel uncomfortable to ask, but it’s a reasonable and responsible question when it comes to the health and safety of our children. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip?

Highly Contagious Stomach Virus Surging In Maryland A highly contagious virus known as rotavirus is spreading at elevated levels across the country, including here in Maryland, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Health officials say cases have been rising steadily since January. In the Northeast region, which includes Maryland, positive test rates jumped from 3.23% to 9.6% in just one week. Rotavirus primarily affects infants and young children and can cause: • Severe vomiting • Watery diarrhea • Fever • Rapid dehydration (which can require hospitalization) The virus spreads easily through contaminated hands, surfaces, food, or toys, and can live on surfaces for extended periods of time. Doctors warn that symptoms can last several days and are often more severe than typical stomach bugs. There is no specific treatment, with care focused on hydration. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip? Share your Mind!

Maryland to Become the First State to Ban Personalized Pricing in Grocery Stores Governor Moore plans to sign the Protection from Predatory Pricing Act, which will ban grocery stores from charging different prices on the same item at the same time. Major retailers including Walmart are adopting digital price tags in stores. When paired with predictive technology, these tags could have the ability to dynamically change the price of an item, based on which shopper is in front of it. Consumer Reports pushed for the new law, which will go into effect on October 1st. Many other states including NY, NJ and CA are considering similar laws. 📲 For fast & reliable hyper-local Jewish Baltimore news: Got a Tip? Share your Mind!
