Mission and programs · 2024

• Form 990-EZ, Part III, Statement of Program Accomplishmnets. Line 28: NYState-ERA Lobbying Project: Sign4ERA A campaign to lobby and influence several moderate Republican Members of Congress in NY State to support the ERA supporters' campaign to sign on and vote to remove ERA time limits. Buses traveled throughout these Members' districts involving thousands of local activists. MDNOW ERA literature, palm cards, posters, and other materials were used and distributed by the volunteers.

• Form 990-EZ, Part III, Statement of Program Accomplishmnets. Line 29: In addition to this crucial 2024 election with national races for the U.S. House and Senate, a constitutional amendment adding abortion rights to our state constitution on our ballot gave us the opportunity to plan ahead for grassroots development work we would need for the 2026 Mid-Term Elections. Our work in all areas of our state also focused on GOTV projects for Presidential Candidate Kamala Harris. In the spring we worked in statewide primary campaigns for two open U.S. House seats and numerous open state legislative races. For the latter, we produced a statewide "informational" voters' guide to these races, which we mailed to our members and distributed at primary campaign events. For the fall election and Question #1, our Reproductive Justice Task Force produced literature and buttons which we used statewide during the election campaign, especially on the Eastern Shore, in Baltimore City and Baltimore County, and in Carroll, Cumberland, and St. Mary's Counties in canvassing and GOTV work. In total, we distributed 12,000 palm cards statewide, and we mailed 2,500 voter guides in pre-primary work. We also distributed Maryland NOW promotional materials.

• Form 990-EZ, Part III, Statement of Program Accomplishmnets. Line 30: Maryland NOW's 2024 Annual State Conference. For our first in-person state conference since 2019, and in a critical election year, our state conference-themed "Defending Democracy: Women Leading the Way" was a huge draw, not just for MD NOW members, but activists from our state coalition partners and members in neighboring states (VA, DE, NC) who also attended. Our keynote presentation featured professionals in the political polling field and leaders of other feminist orgnaizations. We had both in-person and virtual attendees and broadcast our workshops and state business meetings - hosting more participants than we had had At state conferences in our 20 years. We are committed to continue to have hybrid events in the forseeable future.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
