马里兰州州长任命曼尼·韦尔什为幕僚长：前任戴维斯转掌州科技发展公司
马里兰州州长韦斯·摩尔（Wes Moore）11月5日宣布，任命曼尼·韦尔什（Manny Welsh）为州长幕僚长，即刻生效。韦尔什此前任首席副幕僚长兼全州首位首席行政官；前任幕僚长莱斯特·戴维斯（Lester Davis）同日被马里兰科技发展公司（TEDCO）董事会任命为临时首席执行官。戴维斯自2025年10月起任幕僚长。
韦尔什2025年10月起出任首席副幕僚长兼首席行政官，此前任副幕僚长、分管12个州机构，并于2023至2025年任州公共工程委员会执行官。更早前，他在前州主计长彼得·弗兰乔特（Peter Franchot）手下工作七年多，其中两年多任幕僚长，管理一支1100人、预算1.31亿美元的机构团队。
韦尔什出生于菲律宾，2003年11岁时移民美国，获陶森大学学士学位与巴尔的摩大学公共管理硕士。摩尔在声明中称，自己多年来一直倚重韦尔什的判断，相信他能带领州长办公室进入第二任期的工作节奏。
TEDCO是马里兰州扶持早期科技企业的主要经济发展机构。州长办公室称，戴维斯转任后将负责该机构的投资与创业支持业务过渡，正式首席执行官的遴选随后展开；州长办公室的人事交接同日完成，不设空窗期。

Maryland Governor Names Manny Welsh Chief of Staff as Lester Davis Moves to Lead TEDCO
Maryland Governor Wes Moore announced on November 5 that Manny Welsh is his new chief of staff, effective immediately. Welsh had been serving as principal deputy chief of staff and the state's first chief administrative officer; the outgoing chief of staff, Lester Davis, was named interim chief executive officer of the Maryland Technology Development Corporation (TEDCO) by its board the same morning. Davis had held the chief of staff job since October 2025.
Welsh became principal deputy chief of staff and chief administrative officer in October 2025, after serving as a deputy chief of staff overseeing 12 agencies and, from 2023 to 2025, as executive director of the Board of Public Works. Earlier he spent more than seven years in leadership roles for former Comptroller Peter Franchot, including over two years as chief of staff of the 1,100-person, $131 million agency.
Born in the Philippines, Welsh immigrated to the United States in 2003 at age 11 and holds a bachelor's degree from Towson University and an MPA from the University of Baltimore. Moore said he has relied on Welsh's judgment for years and expects him to lead the office into the second term.
TEDCO is Maryland's lead economic-development body for early-stage technology companies. The Governor's Office said Davis will steer its investment and startup-support operations through the transition while a search for a permanent CEO proceeds, and that the Governor's Office handover was completed the same day.
