Inside the Committee Room With Delegate Marc Korman

On the latest episode of the Conduit Street Podcast, Kevin Kinnally and Michael Sanderson are joined by Chair of the House Environment and Transportation Committee, Delegate Marc Korman, for a deep dive into the inner workings of legislative committees in the Maryland General Assembly — how they function, why they matter, and what changes when one takes on the role of chair. In addition to unpacking the committee process, the discussion covers Delegate Korman’s move from the House Appropriations Committee to lead one of the legislature’s most policy-focused panels. Topics include pivotal local issues like housing production, land use challenges, and long-term transportation funding. The conversation also explores strategies to bolster Maryland’s transportation network, including restoring Highway User Revenues, investing in transit, and examining the potential role of regional transportation authorities. Plus, a nod to Delegate Korman’s well-known Metro fandom — and how his deep knowledge of trains and transit fuels serious work on regional mobility and transportation policy. Follow us on Socials!
