Maryland Governor's Office

What Maryland Governor's Office does

The Maryland Governor's Office is the executive branch of the State of Maryland under the Moore-Miller Administration, led by Governor Wes Moore and Lieutenant Governor Aruna Miller. The office serves all Maryland residents and 24 county jurisdictions, directing state agencies, executing the state budget, and setting policy across public safety, economic development, education, and infrastructure. Core functions include law enforcement oversight, agency coordination, legislative agenda execution, and direct engagement with Maryland's 6 million residents.

The office's notable initiatives include the Capital of Quantum partnership with IonQ and the University of Maryland, a $27.5M investment to anchor Maryland as a national quantum hub; the Government Modernization Initiative, an executive order targeting $50M in operational savings; the FBI Headquarters relocation project, projected to generate $4B in economic activity and 6,000 construction jobs; and the Tradepoint Atlantic port expansion, which will increase cargo capacity by 70% and create over 8,000 jobs. The administration also launched the Maryland Public Servants Resource Website in March 2025 to recruit displaced federal workers. The economic growth agenda includes a $750M legislative package, Manufacturing 4.0, BioHub Maryland, CyberMaryland, and the Maryland Defense Initiative, alongside a $10M investment in a Johns Hopkins AI and data science facility.

The office is funded through Maryland state tax revenue as part of the state's approximately $60B annual operating budget; it does not operate a commercial revenue model. Pricing and customer segments are not market-driven — the Governor's Office serves as the constitutional executive authority for the state, with its "customers" being Maryland residents and the broader public it governs.
