In a town hall televised Tuesday evening, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore predicted that the Washington Commanders would keep the team’s stadium in Landover and said using public cash to build it will be part of ongoing negotiations with the team’s new leadership.

“It’s about producing a winner outside the stadium, too,” Moore said. “Are we building economic growth to everyone’s benefit? Are we building new businesses? New entrepreneurs? New pathways to work and wages? Well, the beautiful thing about this new leadership team and the conversations we’ve already had is: They believe in that.”
“That’s part of the conversation, part of the negotiation that’s coming up now … that’s going to be led by the team owners,” he said.The governor responded to questions drafted by news anchors and members of the community in the first of what his staff hopes will be several public town hall forums conducted before the end of his first year in office. He held court with a friendly crowd, primarily made up of people from Maryland’s deep-blue suburbs of D.C.
