In the first episode of In Session for 2020, host Heather Mongilio speaks with county government and statehouse reporter Steve Bohnel about the Kirwan Commission, a well-known statewide initiative to improve public education. The two discuss how some of the current members of the Frederick County delegation view the issue, and what possible funding sources could be used. Later, they discuss Sen. Ron Young's assault weapons buyback program bill, which was recently withdrawn due to state police stating the bill would be costly. The episode wraps up with discussion of a bill which would make "The Land Mary-Land" by Tom Wisner the state song for children.
