• The Current House Members are incredibly spending more than we can afford and they plan to raise our taxes. Do you want them to do that? Read on…

​

• Delaware is spending more than we can afford and About 61% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, no one can afford the increases of everything today. Do living paycheck to paycheck upset you?

​

• Because of the rising cost of everything, it is costing the average Delaware citizen over $7,100 in inflation and falling wages. Okay, who remembers the promise to everyone of “inflation reduction?” Some people forgot that. Were you one of them? What are you going to do about it?

​

• The 2024 Delaware Budget passed with increasing spending of 13% higher. That is $14,736 per household. Tell me, can you, or anyone you know, afford to pay $14,736 more?

​

• Delaware legislators passed the 2024 budget that is $500 million dollars higher yet Delaware brings in $200 million Less in revenue. Repeat: Delaware brings in $200 million Less in revenue. How can Delaware Maintain? Look for tax increases!

​

• A third of Delaware’s population is insured by Medicaid, yet Delaware Lawmakers voted to expand services with less revenue. Again, this is unsustainable. How can Delaware Maintain itself?

DO ANY OF THESE ISSUES CONCERN YOU?

​

• I am certain you have heard that our Delaware schools are failing, which has a grave effect on Delaware’s economy; it is failing, this leads to poverty and crime. Have you noticed the increase in crime and poverty?

​

• There are 17 schools in Delaware which have less than 1 in 10 students that can read or do math at grade level. Changes must be made. The Nation’s Report Card shows Delaware is the 4th worst performing state on the National Assessment of Educational Progress while being the 9th highest in spending per student, spending over $17,000 per student.

​

• There has been a 29% increase in education spending; however, students’ test scores continue to plummet. Even California spends less on average for each student. Do you think our property taxes should continually increase while scores decrease?

​

• In addition to low test scores, Delaware schools have a Chronic Absenteeism problem which is out of control. Delaware is seeing an increase in the level of discipline, violence, and bullying in the schools.

LEGISLATORS NEED TO PRIORITIZE AND FOCUS ON WHAT IS IMPORTANT

​

• Have you noticed that Crime is increasing, and it isn’t just in the cities, but in our neighborhoods too? I will not be soft on crime because the softer you are on crime, the worse it gets. Delaware is ranked #15 in the nation for violent crime per capita in 2023. Have you been a victim of a crime?

​

• Delaware has a drug problem. The average increase in drug overdose death count is 18% every year from 2012 to 2020 and it is still increasing.

​

• The Attorney General created over 40 internal policy changes that make it near impossible to incarcerate an individual, even for an extremely violent crime. Change must come in the legislature. We must work together and be tough on crime. Our families, friends, and property must be protected. However, our rights must not be violated.

​

• Did you know that the most dangerous city in Delaware is Seaford? Seaford was labeled “Heroine Capital of America?” And Laurel, Georgetown, and Dover are right behind it in crime.
