		<description><![CDATA[A CECIL TIMES Special Report NEWS ANALYSIS Cecil County Council member Jackie Gregory (R-5), faced with an ethics complaint and a directive from the county’s Ethics Commission to stop working as a substitute teacher in county schools while holding an elected Council seat, is pressing subpoenas against three fellow Councilors and County Executive Alan McCarthy, according to multiple sources. She wants them to testify at a hearing in early March before the ethics panel which is convening to review her own situation, according to subpoenas reviewed by Cecil Times. Gregory is seeking re-election in the April, 2020 Republican primary, running against Don Harmer, the longtime chair of the county’s Parks and Recreation board, a member of the county Planning Commission, and a youth sports coach. Gregory has frequently opposed funds to support parks and recreation programs and school sports fields. County Council President Bob Meffley (R-1), Councilor George Patchell (R-4) and Councilor Al Miller (R-3) were served with the subpoenas on Tuesday by Wendy Culberson, a private attorney now retained by Gregory. She also served a subpoena on McCarthy. The subpoenas were signed by the chairman of the Ethics Commission, Robert Boonstoppel, who also wrote that the subpoenas had been [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS The old political wisdom, “all politics is local,” is being turned on its head in the District 5 race for Cecil County Council, with the incumbent, Jackie Gregory, raking in Annapolis and Washington campaign donations while her opponent in the 2020 Republican primary election, Don Harmer, is relying on Cecil County supporters, according to new campaign finance reports filed with the state Board of Elections. Gregory has received a total of $6,303 in contributions, political committee transfers, event ticket proceeds and “in kind” donations of services, with expenditures of $1,001. She reported a remaining bank balance of $5,301 in as yet unspent money. Her donations included money from residents of Delaware and Pennsylvania as well as the Annapolis area and other non-Cecil County locales. The most interesting aspect of Gregory’s campaign finance report, which covered activity in 2019 up until 1/8/2020, is the proportion of her political money that came from state and federal political candidates’ accounts&#8211; $2,350 of her total of all funds raised. That figure is almost as much as the $2,638 she received in direct contributions from individuals. State Sen.

		<description><![CDATA[A CECIL TIMES Special Report Cecil County Councilor Jackie Gregory (R-5) delivered an impassioned defense Tuesday of her paid job as a substitute teacher in county schools while voting on budgets including education as a member of the Council, saying a state Attorney General opinion in a Carroll County case supported her dual roles. However, Cecil County’s Charter and Ethics Code specifically bar Council members or public officials from working for any other “department” that receives county funds. The Attorney General’s opinion Gregory cited held there was no “incompatibility” under state law between a Carroll County Commissioner holding that post while also working as a part-time teacher for county schools. However, the opinion specified it was only reviewing state law and refused to address county laws or ethics codes, which the AG said were up to local authorities to interpret and enforce. During the Council members’ comment period at the end of the 11/5/2019 morning worksession, Gregory announced that she wanted to address an issue that has been brewing “behind the scenes” and to contradict anyone “suggesting that I’ve been engaged in wrongdoing.” She said she was raising the issue of her schools job in public in the interests of [&#8230;]]]></description>
