All About the Father's

Delegate Jill P Cater, Baltimore City, Dist. 41, is the daughter of the late civil rights activist, leader, and visionary, Walter P. Carter. She is the third African-American female attorney elected to serve in the Maryland General Assembly. She has earned a reputation as an unyielding voice for the voiceless and underserved. She single-handedly led a legislative effort that resulted in stopping the building of a $170million youth jail in Baltimore last year. She continues the fight to stop charging youth as adults, for law enforcement education and reform to address police brutality, killings claiming the lives of unarmed Black people in America every 28 Hours. Delegate Carter made history by winning her seat, a first time candidate, independent of two political machines competing in northwest Baltimore she garnered more votes than any other candidate and placed first in the city which she continues to do.
