Antonino D. "Nino" Mangione (/ˌmændʒiˈoʊni/ ⓘ MAN-jee-OH-nee;[1] born April 1, 1987) is an American politician from the Republican Party who is a member of the Maryland House of Delegates representing District 42A since 2023, and District 42B from 2019 to 2023.[2][3] He also served as a Baltimore County co-chair for the state's Trump Victory Leadership County team.[4]

Background

Mangione was born in Baltimore County, Maryland.[2] He graduated from Calvert Hall College High School, where he played as a sweeper for the school's soccer team,[5] and afterwards attended Towson University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science in 2009. After graduating, Mangione worked as an intern, and later a show host from 2017 to 2018, with WCBM 680, a talk radio station owned by his family.[2][3] His family has close ties to Baltimore's Italian-American community, with his grandfather, Joseph N. Zannino Jr., having been a member of the Order Sons of Italy in America and the steering committee for the first Columbus Day national holiday celebration.[6]

In July 2017, Mangione filed to run for Maryland House of Delegates.[3] He said that he was inspired to run for office by his late grandfather, Nicholas Mangione, a successful real estate developer who grew up in a poor Italian immigrant family.[7] He won the general election alongside Democrat Michele Guyton with 28.6 percent of the vote.[8]

Conflict of interest

Mangione has come under criticism for various conflicts of interest that could possibly arise from his relation with WCBM 680. While Mangione was a webmaster and a host, WCBM reposted several videos and posts advertising Mangione's campaign. The promotion from the station was not reported as in-kind contributions. Additionally, Mangione's campaign Facebook page reported that Towson University had offered a new scholarship solely for undocumented students, though according to a university spokesman it had never existed. WCBM then created a web page on its website about the scholarship, linking back to Mangione's campaign Facebook page. Mangione has stated that he does not see WCBM posts or his radio show as in-kind contributions to his campaign.[3]

In the legislature

Mangione in the House Appropriations Committee, 2023

Mangione was sworn in as a member of the House of Delegates on January 9, 2019, and appointed to the Appropriations committee. He serves on the health & social services subcommittee and the oversight committee on pensions.[2]

In June 2023, Mangione announced that he would run for the Maryland Senate in District 42 in 2026, challenging incumbent state senator Chris West,[9] who later announced he would not seek re-election.[10] He later announced that he would instead run for the Baltimore County Council, seeking to succeed Wade Kach, who is retiring.[11]

Political positions

Crime

During his 2018 campaign, Mangione ran on creating "safe communities" by getting tough on illegal drug dealers.[7] He introduced an amendment to legislation in the 2021 legislative session that would block people convicted as an adult for more than one murder when they were a minor from seeking reconsideration of prior life without parole sentences; his proposal was rejected in a 54–79 vote.[12]

During the 2024 legislative session, Mangione introduced a bill that would sentence people convicted of first-degree murder to death.[13][14]

Education

During his 2018 campaign, Mangione supported expanding charter schools.[7] During the 2020 legislative session, Mangione was one of two legislators to vote against legislation that would provide an additional $577 million in funding over 10 years to historically black colleges and universities in Maryland.[15]

During the 2021 legislative session, Mangione cosponsored legislation that would ban convicted sex offenders from being students at Maryland public schools.[16]

In July 2021, Mangione called for the firing of Baltimore City school administrators after an investigation by Project Baltimore found that 41 percent of all Baltimore City high school students earned less than a 1.0 grade-point average.[17]

In 2022, Mangione signed a pledge to Moms for Liberty.[18] During the 2024 legislative session, Mangione introduced a bill to ban "sexually explicit" material in public school libraries[19] and unsuccessfully sought to add the bill onto the Freedom to Read Act, which prohibits public and school libraries from banning books based on partisan, ideological, or religious reasons, or based an author's origin, background, or views.[20]

Immigration

During his 2018 campaign, Mangione was a vocal opponent to illegal immigration and said that he would not support legislation that would turn Maryland into a sanctuary state.[7] During the 2020 legislative session, Mangione voted to sustain Governor Larry Hogan's veto on legislation that would allow Maryland high school graduates including undocumented immigrants to qualify for the lowest tuition rates at public colleges and universities under certain circumstances, saying that he feared the bill would encourage more illegal immigration.[21]

Social issues

During protests against the murder of George Floyd in June 2020, protesters in the Little Italy neighborhood of Baltimore tore down and threw a statue of Christopher Columbus into the Jones Falls canal of the Baltimore Harbor.[22] Following this incident, Mangione and state delegate Kathy Szeliga wrote to Governor Larry Hogan calling on him to deploy the Maryland National Guard to protect the statue.[23] He later introduced legislation that would prohibit any person from destroying, damaging, vandalizing or desecrating a monument, memorial, or statue of historical significance.[24]

In 2023, Mangione voted against the Trans Health Equity Act, a bill that would require the state's Medicaid program to cover gender-affirming treatment.[25] He later criticized the legislature for passing the bill, saying that he was upset about the direction of the legislative session: "We've promoted issues like trans equity but we haven't really done anything about crime."[26]

Personal life

Mangione is a cousin of Luigi Mangione, a Towson man who in December 2024 was arrested and later charged with first-degree murder in connection with the killing of Brian Thompson.[27][28] Following his arrest, Nino released a statement on behalf of the Mangione family expressing shock with Luigi's arrest and sympathy toward the Thompson family, and asked the public for prayers for everyone involved.[29] Mangione also postponed a campaign fundraising event that was to be held at Hayfields Country Club, which is owned by the Mangione family, in light of Luigi's arrest.[30]
