Jason Ciemielewski

Criminal Justice / Public Safety Implement the LEAD Program County-Wide. Criminal Justice / Public Safety I will overhaul the Sheriff’s Office’s approach to Sexual Assault Evidence Kits to meet Maryland law requirements. Government Reform I will foster a proactive partnership with the Police Accountability Board to ensure transparency and build deeper trust between our deputies and the neighbors they serve. Criminal Justice / Public Safety Save Taxpayer Money: By treating substance use and behavioral health as public health issues, we reduce the costs of jail and prosecution for low-level offenses. Criminal Justice / Public Safety End the Cycle: LEAD reduces recidivism and overdose deaths while allowing our deputies to focus on high-level criminal threats. Criminal Justice / Public Safety I am committed to improving recruitment and retention by prioritizing deputy wellness, and rewarding merit and professional growth. Immigration End 287(g) Participation Day One.
