(BALTIMORE – July 2025) — Delegate Joseline A. Peña-Melnyk is no stranger to fighting the tough battles in Annapolis. As Chair of the Maryland House Health and Government Operations Committee, she’s spent her career advocating for those too often left out of the conversation — the working poor, the undocumented, the sick, the voiceless. On April 1, 2025, Peña-Melnyk again showed that resolve as she fiercely defended an amendment to Senate Bill 587, the Maryland Reparations Commission legislation. Her leadership helped the bill pass its second reader on the House floor — a vital step toward historical accountability and repair.…

(BALTIMORE – July 20, 2025) — When I wrote “Fear, Power, and the Price of Reparations” two months ago, I was writing from a place of deep frustration. Governor Wes Moore — America’s only Black governor — had just vetoed a bill that would have established a Maryland state reparations commission. It was a bill crafted with care, shaped by years of work from Black lawmakers. At the time, the veto felt like a retreat. A missed moment.
