Protecting Jobs, Defending Rights and Supporting Families Across Baltimore County

Federal workers are the backbone of Maryland’s economy—especially here in Baltimore County, where thousands of families depend on stable government jobs. But too often, these workers have been treated like political pawns—targeted by reckless shutdown threats, harmful policy changes, and leadership that sees them as expendable.

Nick Stewart knows that standing with federal workers means standing with the families who keep our county strong.

Nick’s Plan to Support Federal Workers and Their Families:

• Advocate for workers harmed by political targeting or unfair policy changes—including standing up for those impacted by Trump- and Musk-era cuts, shutdowns, and instability.
• Guarantee access to critical benefits like unemployment insurance, health coverage, and essential support for displaced workers.
• Provide direct career assistance—offering resume counseling, one-on-one job coaching, upskilling opportunities, and mental health resources to help federal employees and contractors navigate job disruptions.
• Partner with legal aid providers to offer advocacy and, when appropriate, support litigation to defend worker rights.
• Drive long-term economic resilience by developing a comprehensive strategy to grow Baltimore County’s economy, attract diverse industries and reduce overreliance on federal employment alone.
• Reimagine workforce services with a concierge-style, “no-wrong-door” approach—ensuring federal workers, contractors and their families get responsive, real-time help navigating county resources.

Federal workers deserve leadership that sees their value—not leadership that uses them as bargaining chips. Nick Stewart is ready to stand up, speak out, and deliver for the working people who keep our government—and our communities—running.
