EXCERPT:

Tax season is officially underway, and this year, there’s a new feature thousands of state taxpayers may find beneficial.

A handful of state officials were joined by a familiar sports legend on Monday, as they kicked off the new easy enrollment health insurance program for tens of thousands of Marylanders who would benefit from this new program.

“Just say yes to health care, it’s that easy,” said Orioles Hall-of-Famer Eddie Murray.

“Easy” Eddie Murray is helping people sign up for this insurance program through a campaign.

“Now there’s no way you should be sitting at home and not wanting to take care of yourself at least the best of your ability right now, and to have it be free and affordable now, this is awesome,” Murray said.

The program is thanks to legislation passed by the General Assembly last year.
