Three veterans of Maryland's information technology industry have formed a political action committee that will make campaign contributions to political candidates who support the industry's efforts in the state.
The new group is called the Maryland IT PAC and will operate at both state and federal levels. The committee's founders were involved in fighting – and successfully overturning – the tax on technology services in 2007.
The committee's chairman is Michael Rosenbaum, chief executive officer of Catalyst IT Services. The vice chairman is Tom Loveland, chief executive of Mind Over Machines and Baltimore's " Google czar" overseeing its application for Google's high-speed broadband Internet service, and the treasurer is Larry Letow, president of Convergence Technology Consulting.
