House Speaker Adrienne Jones, a Baltimore County Democrat, kicked off a news conference with top Democrats who control the chamber by saying, "We can no longer rely on quick fixes or short-term approaches."
"They will only land us right back in the same place next year," Jones said. "At this point, we know what the solution is, and it’s finally time that we just say it. The answer is revenues."
