WATCHING YOUR WALLET

Every county dollar comes from a Frederick County family.
For 12 years, Jerry has fought for taxpayer relief when it mattered most.

Said No to the Property Hike

May 2024

Voted against raising the property tax rate by 5 cents, citing the "sticker shock" homeowners were already feeling from rising assessments.

Fought for Property Tax Relief

May 2026

Joined a bipartisan effort to find about $15 million in budget cuts for property tax relief.

Held the Line on Rates

FY2026 & FY2027

The property tax rate stayed flat at $1.11 in both budgets. "This budget will help seniors."

Tax Cut for Lower Earners

FY2023

Voted for the budget that lowered the income tax rate for lower earners.

Growth Should Pay for Growth

In 2021, Jerry co-sponsored a school mitigation fee on developers, so new development helps cover the cost of the schools it fills instead of putting it all on current homeowners.
