'''Westley Watende Omari Moore''' (born October 15, 1978) is a liberal politician and businessman from [[Democratic party]]. He is serving as the 63rd governor of [[Maryland]] since 2023 succeeding [[Larry Hogan]].
==Positions==
Like other Democrat governors, Moore opposed voter-ID legislation introduced by state senator Justin Ready, calling it "voter suppression". Moore supported a bill to ban the possession and sale of privately made firearms in Maryland. He supports creating a firearms database to help law enforcement track guns used in crimes. In June 2022, Moore condemned the Supreme Court's ruling in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen, calling it a "misguided and dangerous decision." He also opposed Governor Hogan's decision to suspend the state's "good and substantial reason" standard for obtaining a concealed carry permit following the ruling.<ref>[https://www.baltimoresun.com/2022/09/06/heres-where-wes-moore-and-dan-cox-stand-on-health-care-guns-the-environment-and-more/ "Here's where Wes Moore and Dan Cox stand on health care, guns, the environment and more"]</ref> Moore dont oppose illegal immigration and want to create pathways to citizenship for them.<ref>[https://hub.jhu.edu/magazine/2023/winter/governor-wes-moore/ The Governor Wes Moore ]</ref> He also against sending members of the Maryland National Guard to the Mexico–United States border.<ref>[https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/politics/marylands-not-doing-that-governor-reacts-to-states-sending-national-guard-to-border/3359149/ ‘Maryland's Not Doing That': Governor Reacts to States Sending National Guard to Border ]</ref>
