New candidacies in District 18

Two new candidates joined the delegate race for District 18 yesterday: Fredric C. Cooper and Rosalyn "Roz" Woodward Pelles.

Pelles is a high profile organizer in the labor and civil rights movements, serving as director of the AFL-CIO's Civil, Human and Women's Rights Department since 2005. She's previously worked with the Union Community Fund, the National Rainbow Coaltion, as a legislative analyst for the state legislature.

Cooper has been active in Maryland politics in Howard County. According to his letter of intent, he owns "a consulting practice CDC Advisory Services which works to build community assets, improve access to credit and investment for low-wealth communities, and build capacity among those who serve those communities."
