In regards to the July 25 and 27 editorials that were written about Sen. Ulysses Currie (D-25) I would like to provide some clarity regarding his relationship with the Capital Area Food Bank. (“Currie deals in private? No way,” July 25 and “Good cause, bad governance,” July 27) Before Sen. Currie joined the food bank’s board, our executive committee and general counsel contacted the Maryland Legislative Ethics Committee. The ethics committee approved the decision to nominate Sen. Currie to the board of directors. They further stated that legislators are actually encouraged to be on local boards to better understand the needs of their local communities. Only after receiving this information did we move forward with the nomination.
