This week, complaints were filed against Dr. Terri Hill, a Maryland plastic surgeon serving in the House of Delegates, for strikingly similar behavior. They were made not only with the General Assembly’s ethics committee but with the Maryland Board of Physicians. The allegation is that she twice joined legislative meetings by video from the operating room, including, most recently, a March 12 meeting of the House of Delegates Health and Government Operations Committee. And, like Dr. Green in California, Dr. Hill saw nothing wrong with her behavior.
““I’m a little surprised that this is becoming a big deal. because there are no privacy issues,” Delegate Hill, a two-term Democrat representing portions of Howard and Baltimore County, told The Sun’s Pamela Wood. “There are no attention-to-duty issues and there’s no dereliction-of-duty issues. So, the only issue is people’s perception of what could or could not or must or must not have been going on.”
Here’s another possibility: It’s grossly unprofessional to shortchange one of the most fundamental responsibilities of a state lawmaker: full participation in legislative hearings. And we’re guessing a lot of Dr. Hill’s fellow physicians would see the distraction of a livestream hearing as not exactly helpful to a good surgical outcome, either.
Don’t take our word for it. House Speaker Adrienne A. Jones has already reportedly instructed Dr. Hill that this is inappropriate behavior. Although to be fair, it’s probably not the only time a member of the Maryland General Assembly has made a bad choice about livestreaming. Complaints about delegates and senators who attempt to engage in legislative activities while driving their cars have apparently been the bane of committee staff existence this legislative session. Perhaps we need to start running public service announcements on television and radio: “See an elected official Zooming while doing something else that should require their full attention (like surgery or driving down Interstate 97)? Call the General Assembly at 800-492-7122″).
