On April 14, 2021, Schulz announced that she would vie to become the state's first female governor by running to be the Republican nominee in the 2022 Maryland gubernatorial election. [27] [28] Her running mate was Jeff Woolford, an Air Force veteran and assistant Health secretary. [29] She was endorsed by Hogan, who was stepping down as required by Maryland term limits. [30] [31]

During the primary, Schulz was noted for withdrawing from many of the candidate forums held around the state, refusing to take a stage with her main opponent Dan Cox. [32] [33] The Schulz campaign said this was to avoid propping up Cox, who was farther to the right than the more moderate Schulz. [34] [35] [36] [37] Cox had been endorsed by former president Donald Trump, who had criticized Governor Hogan and attacked Schulz as a RINO. [38] The primary between Cox and Schulz was seen by election analysts as a proxy war between Hogan and Trump. [39] The Democratic Governors Association (DGA) spent $1 million on television ads promoting Cox, believing him to be a weaker opponent in a deep blue state. [40] [41] [42]

On July 19, 2022, Schulz lost the primary to Cox, earning 43.5 percent of the vote to Cox's 52.0 percent. [4] [37] Schulz declined to endorse Cox after conceding on July 29, predicting correctly that Democratic nominee Wes Moore would defeat him in the general election. [43] [44]

Jim Dornan, who worked as an on-and-off political strategist for the Schulz campaign, attributed Cox's primary victory to Trump's endorsement and the DGA ad blitz. Other observers, including former Maryland lieutenant governor and Republican National Committee chair Michael Steele, said the ads had little impact on voters. Steele noted that neo-Confederate activist Michael Peroutka won his primary to be the GOP's candidate for Maryland Attorney General by an almost identical margin to Cox without DGA ads. [45]

In October 2022, the Maryland Tech Council announced that Schulz would serve as the trade association's CEO, beginning on November 1. [46] In February 2023, Schulz was named as a member of the Hood College Board of Associates. [47]

Political positions

Education

During her 2022 campaign, Schulz said that she supported school choice and advocated for keeping schools open. [48] She also drafted a "parental bill of rights" that included promises to post classroom lessons online, expand the use of school resource officers in classrooms, make it easier to open public charter schools, increase funding for private school scholarships, and "keep partisan politics out of the classroom". [6] [49]

Elections

In August 2013, Schulz called for an investigation into the integrity of Maryland's elections in the state after conservative activist group True the Vote claimed to find 173 cases of interstate voter fraud in Florida. [50]

Schulz introduced legislation in the 2014 legislative session that would allow mail voting for municipal incorporation elections. [51] [52]

Guns

Schulz introduced several pieces of gun-rights legislation during the 2015 legislative session before she resigned to join the Hogan administration. The first bill would have allowed licensed gun shops to instigate a National Instant Criminal Background Check and sell firearms to a person upon passing the background check. The second bill would have allowed owners of assault weapons to repair broken parts of a firearm that is registered with the Maryland State Police. The third would have changed Maryland from a may-issue to a shall-issue state. The fourth and final bill would have repealed a law that requires shell casings to be sent to the Department of State Police Crime Laboratory, which maintains a database of discharged casings to track guns that may be used in crimes. [53]

Immigration

In January 2011, Schulz said she opposed legislation that would provide financial aid to illegal immigrants. She also said she thought the state should prevent illegal immigrants from receiving welfare benefits or social services. [54]

Schulz opposed legislation introduced in the 2013 legislative session that would allow undocumented workers to obtain limited driver's licenses. [55]

Labor

In 2012, Schulz worked to weaken the Workplace Fraud Act, which gave employers twice as much time to produce records and added exemptions for employers. [16]

In December 2013, Schulz wrote an op-ed for the Frederick News-Post criticizing legislation that would raise the state's minimum wage from $7.25 to $10 per hour. [56] She voted against the bill in the House Economic Matters Committee, which passed it, 13–8. [57] Schulz did remove a provision from the bill that would have indexed increases of the minimum wage to inflation. [58]

In 2017, Governor Hogan appointed Schulz to chair a committee to investigate paid-leave policy. In November, the group released a 72-page report containing its conclusions on the implementation of statewide paid-leave legislation. [59]

In February 2019, Schulz wrote to lawmakers to urge them to consider implementing regional or county wage rates into legislation that would increase the state's minimum wage to $15 an hour. [60]

Marijuana

During a debate on legislation that would legalize medical marijuana in Maryland, Schulz introduced an amendment that would report medical marijuana use on the state's prescription drug monitoring program. The House of Delegates rejected the amendment. [61]

In August 2021, Schulz said that she did not have a policy position on the legalization of marijuana, but mentioned that hemp development for farmers was an important economic development opportunity. [62]

Social issues

As a state delegate, Schulz sponsored and voted for bills that would have restricted abortion rights in Maryland, including a bill to block state funding for abortion services and proposed ballot referendum to amend the state constitution to extend the state's constitutional rights to people "from the beginning of their biological development". [63] During her gubernatorial campaign, Schulz said that she personally opposes abortion but would not move to change current Maryland law. [64]

In January 2012, Schulz said that she opposed same-sex marriage and supported a grassroots movement to start a referendum to overturn same-sex marriage legislation. [65] She voted against legislation introduced in the 2012 legislative session that would legalize same-sex marriage in Maryland. [66]

Schulz opposes mask and vaccine mandates, saying that both should be up to the individual. [67]
