This is a repost of a Gazette.net article from April 16, 2014
As a former small business owner in Calvert County, I’ve been researching the voting records of Calvert County delegates. Just as I thought, former delegate Sue Kullen has one of the worst voting records concerning small businesses and job creation.
For years, businessmen and women have been under siege by Annapolis elites. In response to the poor business climate in Maryland, a group was established called the Maryland Business for Responsive Government (MBRG). MBRG began rating legislators on their voting records concerning issues facing the business community. The group seeks to inform Maryland’s businesses, elected officials and the general public about the policies needed to foster economic development and job creation in Maryland. The ratings provide great insight as to how a legislator values the very people who create the jobs Marylanders need.
After serving two terms in the House of Delegates, Sue Kullen received a cumulative “F.” That’s “F” for “failing” the business community. That’s an “F” for voting against jobs.
Job creation and small business development should always be a priority, particularly during weak economic times. MBRG’s rating demonstrates without a shadow of a doubt that Kullen governed as a far left zealot. After all, didn’t she vote on hundreds of bills? At the very least, couldn’t she vote for a few bills that foster job creation to garner her at least a “C?”
