Michael Peroutka, the Republican candidate for Maryland attorney general, faces an uphill battle to beat his Democratic opponent, Maryland Congressman Anthony Brown. The latest poll shows Peroutka behind by more than 20 points. What will it take for him to bridge that gap? We talk with the former Anne Arundel councilman about his priorities, which include election integrity and opposing abortion.

A D.C. council committee approved a bill that, if it passes the full council, would give District residents up to $100 each month for Metro.

Plus, what are his priorities as chair of the council's judiciary committee? We know that one of them will be a massive rewrite of the city's criminal code.
