Earlier this month we celebrated 🎉 Grason Wiggins, Senior Vice President of Government Affairs at the Maryland Chamber, for two years of incredible leadership, impact and unwavering advocacy.

Grason has led our government affairs team through two highly active legislative sessions, built upon strong relationships with lawmakers and stakeholders across the state, amplified the voice of Maryland’s business community on critical policy issues, championed pro-business, pro-growth legislation to support employers statewide, and elevated the Chamber’s influence and presence in Annapolis and beyond.

Thanks for all that you do, Grason! 👏

📊 Maryland's 2026 CNBC business rankings tell a story we can't afford to ignore.

While our state continues to shine in talent, innovation and quality of life, we're losing ground in the areas that matter most to employers: affordability, competitiveness and business growth. The data is clear, and Maryland must address the policies that are driving up costs and making it harder to attract investment, create jobs and retain talent. 💼

Read our latest analysis and join the conversation 💬 about building a stronger, more competitive Maryland.

A business rarely leaves a state, or decides not to grow in one, for a single reason. It's the accumulation. That's what Maryland's four-year slide in the CNBC business rankings is really measuring.
