In the last few weeks, we have been witness to an unprecedented health crisis that has created havoc throughout the world both as a health and economic challenge and the US has not been spared. The experts fear the worst is yet to come and we want to assure our friends and members that PGAMA is open for business and ready to assist in any way that we can.
While it may be necessary to cancel or postpone workshops, educational sessions and network events in the next few weeks, rest assured that continue to be available for technical, business, HR and government regulation issues both on a state and national level. Additionally, PGAMA has a vast nationwide network of companies with myriad capabilities to assist our members if, for any reason, your ability to manufacture is compromised.
As always, the network of benefits that are exclusive to PGAMA members remain and we are always ready to discuss how any or all of these programs can benefit your company
Most importantly, stay safe and all the best in these extraordinary times
The PGAMA Team

The Kirwan Commission on Innovation and Excellence is a multi-year initiative to research and develop major funding and policy reforms to improve the quality of Maryland’s public education system. However, the promised investment carries a huge price tag - $40 billion over the next 10 years (FY2030); equivalent to nearly $4 billion in annual mandated spending. State taxpayers will pick up an estimated $2.8 billion (70%) of the costs. The remaining balance will fall on the locals - Baltimore City and the counties (all 23) are responsible $1.2 billion (30%). But both Senate and House Leadership have publicly assured Marylanders that they will not incur new taxes or tax increases to fund this initiative…for now.
