From the Desk of Former Mayor Malinda Miles

It has been two years since I decided to remove myself from the political scene in Mount Rainier, MD, Prince George's County, and the State of Maryland. Holding the lofty position of Mayor was such a great honor, but as the years flew by, I realized that it was time to do something else -- get a life.! I did, and still continue to provide resources to the residents through The Front Porch Ministries (TFPM). Real people pass through The Front Porch Ministries weekly. LIFE is good.

One of Our Campaign Endorsers speaking about Mayor Malinda Miles:

I wanted to take a moment to put forward my endorsement of Malinda Miles for Mayor of Mount Rainier Maryland. I think she is an excellent Mayor and the right person to continue to provide leadership and accomplishment for our city. The Mayor has a real understanding of the complexities of the challenges that we face and combines this with a real, practical, “no – nonsense – get – things –done” outlook.

The Mayor has provided far-sighted leadership on immigration and community policing that has made our neighborhoods safer and improved police – community relations. The Mayor has been a “mover” with hands-on effectiveness, on community development and creating opportunities for our youth, in terms of positive recreation.

Finally, and certainly not least, it is fair to say that the Mayor is a big-hearted person. The way that she has stepped in to help people facing eviction and seniors in need of help after a storm, is a real-world example of this. I support Malinda Miles candidacy for Mayor fully and without reservation and I hope you will join me in helping her to win re-election. Johnathan Haskett, Long-time resident

Mayor Malinda Miles

As a long-time resident of Mount Rainier and a homeowner, it is important to me that municipal government be inclusive of all of its residents. It is equally important that information be communicated through all possible channel so that residents can get involved. It is also important for residents to volunteer and serve on committees, commissions, boards and task forces. I truly believe that municipal government is the government closes to the people, and as such should be easily accessible. This BLOG is another effort to reach out to the residents of Mount Rainier.
