  1. Giving illegal immigrants drivers license encourages them to break more laws

    As a life-long Maryland citizen, I completely oppose efforts within our misguided General Assembly to pass the Maryland Highway Safety Act of 2013, which would allow the state to issue a Maryland driver's license to illegal immigrants ("State Senate...

  5. Justice for Maryland's HBCUs

    For many Marylanders, Gov. Martin O'Malley's proposed fiscal year 2014 budget includes plenty to celebrate.

  8. Md. petition reform: a tempest in a teapot

    Twenty years after the last time Maryland voters weighed in on a law passed by the General Assembly, they got the chance to do it three times in 2012, with referendums on in-state tuition for some illegal immigrants, same-sex marriage and a gerrymandered congressional district map designed to deliver one more seat to the Democrats. The powers that be in Annapolis are not thrilled — Gov. Martin O'Malley proclaimed it "a little too easy" to put a law on the ballot — and now several of them have introduced legislation to make the task harder. Though Maryland's recent experiences with petitions have exposed some flaws with the process, lawmakers should think twice before declaring referendums to be a dangerous trend that needs to be curtailed.

  10. Republicans rediscover the virtues of immigration reform

    In my <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-mcmanus-column-republican-retreat-20130127,0,6893665.column">Sunday column</a>, I suggested that Republicans in Congress have begun to evolve in a more pragmatic, less ideological direction after their losses in last year&rsquo;s election. As evidence, I noted that House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) backed off last week from a threatened showdown with President Obama over the federal government&rsquo;s debt ceiling.

  14. A loophole in the dream

    When the General Assembly passed the Maryland Dream Act, lawmakers intended to allow certain students who are undocumented immigrants to pay in-state tuition rates at the state's colleges and universities. It was a recognition that these young people...

  16. Will we be who we say we are?

    I devoted most of my columns over the last several weeks to the holidays, the memories they invoke and the way they bring people together. But as the year draws to a close, even I am surprised to see that none of the scenes I drew took place in church &mdash; not even by way of flashback &mdash; because I have learned more on Sunday than on any other day of the week. On Sunday I heard lessons about morality couched in stories, punctuated by dance and song. It's when I felt a visceral connection to God and a community. It's the day I saw how one man with a podium and a book could hold hundreds transfixed while he hovered between this world and the next.

  22. The forgotten side of the immigration debate

    Recently, I returned home from a three-week stay in Guanajuato, Mexico. I lived with a gracious Mexican family, took Spanish classes and had the chance to immerse myself in Mexican culture. Mexican society was beautiful and vibrant &mdash; full of ideas, art and religion. Needless to say, the crude stereotypes of drug cartels and kidnappings were hardly relevant or applicable to my experience, or the experience of anyone I met.
