Ron Miller Candidate For Maryland Senate on the Environment

AAEA is covering the environmental positions of candidates for public office. Ron Miller is running for the Maryland Senate District 27 (President Mike Miller's seat). He sent us his general position on the environment and his specific position on the Chesapeake Bay:

"I strongly support the preservation of open spaces in Maryland and protecting the Chesapeake Bay, and I believe we can preserve the natural beauty of our state while still growing our economy to extend opportunity to all Marylanders. Protecting the environment is not an "either/or" proposition where the environment wins at the expense of the economy, or vice versa. We are problem solvers, and we are the most technologically advanced nation on the planet. We can have both, and the Governor has proved it, delivering an improved environment and a healthy economy during his administration."
