  • During the fourth Democratic presidential primary debate on January 17, 2016, Martin O'Malley talked about restructuring the budget to make investments in infrastructure and other areas. He said, “I had to make more cuts than any governor in the history of Maryland, but we invested more in infrastructure, more in transportation. We made our public schools [the best] in America more than five years in a row, and went four years in a row without a penny's increase to college tuition. The things that we need to do in our country, like debt-free college in the next five years, like making universal -- like making national service a universal option in order to cut youth unemployment in half in the next three years, all these things can be done if we eliminate one entitlement we can no longer afford as a nation. And that is the wealthy among us, those making more than a million dollars, feel that they are entitled to paying a much lower marginal tax rate than was usual for the better part of these 80 years. And if we tax earnings from investments on money -- namely capital gains -- at the same rate as we tax sweat and hard work and toil, we can make the investments we need to make to make our country better.”[2]
  • O'Malley "eliminated 4,200 state jobs and $5.6 billion in spending during his first term," according to the National Journal.[3]

Agricultural subsidies

  • O'Malley advocated for the federal government to increase funding for dairy supports by $350 million.[4]
