News Update:
"County Council backs keeping the Dickerson incinerator, 6-5. The County Council voted 6-5 Tuesday to keep the Dickerson incinerator open long term, thwarting outgoing County Executive Marc Elrich's plan to close it. The vote is non-binding: refurbishment money needs approval in the fiscal 2028 capital budget, which County Executive-elect Will Jawando (who voted no) must propose by Jan. 15." Rockville Loop 11/11/2026

The LWVMC Environment Committee has submitted a letter to the council urging them to keep the RRF open. The committee’s analysis revealed that continuing to operate the RRF would produce better environmental, public health, financial, and environmental justice outcomes than long-hauling waste to an out-of-state landfill. The LWVMC recommended the county continue to operate the RRF while aggressively pursuing cost-effective waste reduction, reuse, recycling, and composting.

2026 Census Alert

    "The proposed rule would:
     1) exclude noncitizens other than “lawful permanent  
         residents” from congressional apportionment through an
         administrative action
     2) eliminate questions about race and ethnicity from the
         decennial census
     3) redefine “usual residence” in multiple ways, including an
         unprecedented enumeration period and tying enumeration
         to certain administrative records
     4) prohibit sexual orientation questions on future censuses. "
