Summary

Madison’s new civil rights director, McClain, is set to bring fresh energy to the city’s equity efforts after his tenure in Baltimore County. With a track record in equal opportunity, fair housing, and federal employment, he’ll oversee discrimination complaints and disability initiatives — a role that’s been vacant for too long. His $30K annual salary and 10-day start buffer come amid lingering questions about his previous departure, though officials say no wrongdoing is known. This appointment signals a major step forward for accountability and opportunity in the city. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
