HoCoJAG Primary Election Voter Guide

The June 23 primary matters. Local offices shape school policy, public safety priorities, and the political climate Jewish families experience every day.

HoCoJAG asked candidates where they stand on antisemitism, discrimination, school safety, and whether Jewish residents will be treated as full and equal members of civic life.

Review the guide, share it with friends and neighbors, and make a plan to vote.

HoCoJAG was formed in response to the explosion of antisemitism in our community after October 7th 2023.

Organized as a 501(c)(4) organization, HoCoJAG serves as a complement to existing Jewish advocacy organizations, most of which are 501(c)(3)s and therefore unable to engage in direct political action such as endorsing or opposing candidates. We ask candidates to take public positions against antisemitism in all its forms, shares those positions, and then endorses candidates and publishes election guides.

We are dedicated to protecting the Howard County Jewish Community and combating antisemitism via direct political action.

HoCoJAG monitors legislation related to antisemitism in Howard County and Maryland and provides easy ways for members to take action.

HoCoJAG partners with other groups that stand against bigotry and hatred.
