Why this petition matters

Started by Josh Hastings

The Maryland General Assembly will soon repeal its State Song ("Maryland, My Maryland") and they need a new state song to replace it with... Let's make "Maryland Proud (A Place Called Maryland)" the new state song! 

This song was started by Josh Hastings (in 2012) in Deep Creek, MD, and finished (in 2020) in Salisbury, MD with the help of Sarah Bernstein, Chuck Cook, and Alyssa Hastings. The lyrics reflect the thoughts and comments of dozens of Marylanders who responded to a May 2020 Facebook poll about what they love about Maryland. 

If Maryland is to have a new State Song, let's have one that truly reflects our beautiful state and the beautiful people who have come from it. Here is a link that explains the meaning behind the proposed lyrics. Video of the song being performed to soon follow. Thank you!
