Support Vanessa Atterbeary's Campaign

Vanessa believes public trust is earned through action, and service is measured by results. That is why she led Maryland’s first-in-the-nation police accountability reforms and fought for bold education and economic initiatives for Maryland families.

As one of Maryland’s most effective legislators and Chair of the House Ways and Means Committee, Vanessa hasn’t had the time nor the inclination to participate in performative politics. She has demonstrated real leadership as a Maryland Delegate by rolling up her sleeves to solve complex problems. In part, her success can be attributed to her commitment to consensus building and bringing people together. Vanessa’s unique ability to be cooperative while remaining firm has earned her the respect of lawmakers across the nation. 

Now Vanessa is ready to bring that same spirit of service home to Howard County. Her campaign is about honoring the people who live and work here, those who make the community home. It is about making sure families can afford to live here, that children thrive in great schools, that every resident’s human and civil rights are protected, and that no voice is too small to be heard. Vanessa is ready to lead. She is ready to get it done for Howard County.
