Cardin Hosts Anne Arundel County Executive Schuh at State of the Union Address 

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Ben Cardin (D-Md.) announced that Anne Arundel County Executive Steve Schuh (R) would be his guest at tonight’s State of the Union Address. Maryland State Senator Catherine Pugh (D-Md. 40th District) and Alan Gross, a Maryland aid worker recently freed from a Cuban Prison, also will attend the Address as guest of First Lady Michelle Obama.

“All Marylanders benefit when we set aside partisanship and our federal, state and local officials work together. It’s why I asked County Executive Schuh to join me for President Obama’s speech tonight. He understands that our constituents must come first,” said Senator Cardin. “Steve Schuh has spent years serving the people of Anne Arundel County and I look forward to working with him in his new role as county executive.”

Steve Schuh is a lifelong Marylander who served in the Maryland House of Delegates before being elected to serve as Anne Arundel County Executive in November 2014.
