Here is One Day in May legislation introduced in the 2019 Maryland Senate.

in State Testing Experiences

SB0757 2019 Maryland General Assembly

This is the bipartisan bill that would have limited state testing to one day in May. The bill was killed in committee, never allowed to come to a vote. The lobbyists won; the children lost.

The Maryland Department of Education admits in Fiscal and Policy note that One Day in May tests could be created - but they argue that they would be more expensive (really?) and would mess up their plans for long “testing windows” and Chromebook purchase because the just must do all of the testing on computers. It’s a revealing read.
