Baltimore City Mayor Brandon Scott, a Democrat who previously served on the Baltimore City Council, took office in December, 2020.

Today, we bring Midday to a close. As of tomorrow, Midday will no longer be part of WYPR’s schedule. Moving forward, Tom Hall will become WYPR’s Senior News Analyst. Tomorrow at this hour, we’ll present On Point from NPR, and beginning Monday, you’ll hear the NPR news program, Here and Now during the noon hour.

For this, our final show, we turn our focus to the city of Baltimore.

We begin with Baltimore City Mayor Brandon Scott. Since he was first elected in 2020, the mayor has appeared on Midday with the Mayor once a month. We are grateful to him for his time over the years, and we are delighted to welcome him back today.

On Tuesday night, Mayor Scott gave his 6th “State of the City” address, and yesterday, he released his proposal for a 4-point-9 billion-dollar city budget.

Mayor Brandon Scott joins Tom in Studio A.
