The Anne Arundel County Council has seven members. It takes a majority of four votes to pass any bill, including any bill to protect our environment. The Anne Arundel Chapter has endorsed seven candidates for the County Council. We are confident that, if elected, they will give Annapolis a strong conservation majority on the Council. Now we have to get them elected.
This is the latest in a series of emails that focus on each individual candidate. In this edition we will introduce you to Lisa Brannigan Rodvien, the Democratic candidate for District 6, Chris Trumbauer’s District. Chris is barred by term limits from seeking another term. District 6 covers Annapolis Neck. Find your County Council District here.

I will also work towards ensuring that our public schools provide excellent education for ALL children so that today’s young people can have prosperous futures right here in Anne Arundel County. Furthermore, I will work towards improving the availability of mental health resources in our county for people of all ages. School counselors in AACPS are currently tasked with serving as many as three times the number of students recommended by national organizations. The number of mental health care providers for adults, even those with insurance coverage, is insufficient to serve the needs of our community. Expanding access and availability to mental health care in our community will be a critical component in stemming the addiction crisis.
Finally, I will work to create an county that is welcoming to immigrants and does not create undue fear for those who are simply working to live peaceful and productive lives in our county.
