Governor Hogan held a press conference a little bit ago. Under our rules an emergency declaration gives a governor broad powers and he's already making some big changes. For one, he's investigating the possibility of having primary elections completely done by mail-in ballots. Access to the DMV will be by appointment only. And perhaps the biggest thing, he's reactivating open enrollment for the MD health exchange for a special period of time.

 

I wanted to post that particular info about the exchange so people from MD on VJ could find it (since people send me so many pm's about health insurance) but I'm just not sure where to put it. I haven't any more details on when enrollment will be activated, but I know a lot of people have been concerned how they could get insurance when enrollment is shut and they don't want to be uninsured while the virus is circulating. I hope that other governors might consider following his example.

Thanks for sharing Yuna

Hogan elaborated that all schools will be closed after tomorrow. No more public gatherings, religious gatherings, or sports events. Senior centers will be closed and daycare is being looked at. No more ships coming into the port.

I think someone should start wrangling upper level officials and make them take the test.

Great job, finding something from today (after we talked about it).  So your link is three days newer than mine.  The events both took place last week.  One is positive, one isn't.  Don't worry your pretty little head about it, Trump will still be your president next year.

It's just like the flu... people are saying.

You're getting the concept, finally.  Keep up the good work!

No reasonable adult believes the ####### that is coming out of the Whitehouse.  This is not the flu, this is a medical crisis. It is not going to improve on its own.

 

Listen to doctors and scientists, not politicians.

Impeachment didn't take out one you love. This disease is serious and the Whitehouse is just randomly throwing out statements about Cargo blockades, but UK folks are welcome.  

 

We will get through this, despite the incomprehensible incompetence at the helm. 

 

Go ahead and double down on behalf of the man.  I put my trust in medicine and science.

Try the "Moving to the US" forum, si Y ma'am.

Maybe start off with something like "If you've moved to Maryland and missed qualifying for health insurance, [...]."

Then you can point out that this is good for all MD residents (if true).

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).
