This morning, I met with the Delaware State FOP to discuss issues affecting law enforcement here in Delaware and across the nation. I’m grateful to our state’s brave, dedicated officers and I’ll do everything I can to support their work to keep our communities safe.

Glad to tour the BrightBloom Center at Nylon Capital Shopping Center in Seaford. Geared toward children with autism and other special needs, this place is a wellspring of learning and enrichment. Thank you to the staff for telling us about the amazing work they do!

Nylon Capital Shopping Center used to be a regional landmark, but it has fallen by the wayside in recent years. Now, it’s coming back. Thanks to an incredible vision, and $20M from the American Rescue Plan Act, we're on the verge a new era here in Seaford! February 2024 and now:

Earlier this year, Michael, a Veteran, reached out to my team about getting his honorable discharge certificate. While working to help him, we learned he was also entitled to an award! I was so proud to welcome him to our office, present his awards, and thank him for his service.

Nooses are symbols of hate. Swastikas – the literal symbol of the Nazi Party, the perpetrators of the Holocaust – are symbols of hate. This isn’t controversial.⁣ ⁣ This isn’t how you recruit upstanding Americans into our armed forces.
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols. The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”
Glad to meet with the Sussex Economic Development Action Committee this morning for a conversation about our shared vision for an economy that works for all of Sussex County. I look forward to working with the partners in this room for years to come
The Department of Education’s job was never day-to-day management of classrooms, it was to protect our kids from discrimination and give every student the chance to thrive. Don’t be fooled. The impacts of their negligence will be measured in years, not weeks or months.
The White House may have a new gilded ballroom and a new marble bathroom, but hardworking Americans are struggling to afford housing. It's time for the federal government to get off the sidelines when it comes to solving our housing crisis.
I didn’t vote for this deal. But where do we go from here? I know there are House members from both parties who want to keep our health care crisis from getting worse. It’s on Speaker Johnson to hold a vote, restore these tax credits, and bring down costs.
A 50-year mortgage just shows how shortsighted this administration is. For a slightly lower monthly payment, you end up paying WAY more interest in the long term. We need to pass real solutions to bring down housing costs- not just move costs around to benefit big banks.
