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 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:

• Standing Up and Speaking Out: 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.
• Ensure Accessible Benefits: Guarantee access to critical benefits like unemployment insurance, health coverage and essential support for displaced workers.
• Career Assistance: Provide direct career assistance such as offering resume counseling, one-on-one job coaching, upskilling opportunities and mental health resources to help federal employees and contractors navigate job disruptions.
• Legal Aid: Partner with legal aid providers to offer advocacy and, when appropriate, support litigation to defend worker rights.
• Strengthen Local and Private Job Market: 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.
• No Wrong Door: 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. (Learn more here)

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 communities—and our country—running.
