Montgomery County tries closed captioning in Spanish - Maryland

“Spanish-speaking residents in Montgomery County can now have a bit more involvement in the county’s operating budget process.

Officials will broadcast tonight’s public budget hearing on county cable TV with an option for viewers to select Spanish closed captioning.

County Council spokesman Neil Greenberger said the pilot program might seem like a small pursuit but it could start a much bigger effort countywide to involve the growing number of Hispanics.”
