Maryland Gov. Wes Moore will address the National Press Club at a Headliners Luncheon on Thursday, June 22.

Moore, Maryland's first Black governor, recently finished his first legislative session, signing into law a $15 an hour minimum wage, expanded tax breaks for military retirees, and a first-in-the-nation program offering high school students a state-paid service year option. He also signed new gun control bills that restrict who can carry guns in public and where they can bring them. The National Rifle Association immediately challenged the measures in federal court.
