Through our recent national traumas, we’ve learned the importance of the rule of law. No one in our society should be above the law including the Delaware General Assembly.
As Thomas Jefferson warned, “Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves therefore are its only safe depositories.”
Our lawmakers have used their lawmaking power to exempt themselves from the section of the Delaware Code known as the “State Employees’, Officers’ and Officials’ Code of Conduct” and from oversight of the Public Integrity Commission.
In 2015 the Center for Public Integrity gave Delaware an F, ranking the First State 48th in systems to deter corruption in state government. The report characterized ethics enforcement in Delaware as “anemic.”

DELAWARE – State legislators are considering a bill that would make it a law that people have to clean snow and ice off their vehicles before driving. Senate Bill 64 would create a civil penalty for violation for those who fail to remove snow and ice from their vehicles.
Bill sponsors also tell 47 ABC, the act creates a civil penalty for times when snow or ice dislodges from a moving vehicle and causes property damage, or physical injury. Delaware department of transportation says, it’s a hazard to drivers. They say chunks of snow and ice flying off moving vehicles can cause people to swerve, and lose site of the roadway, which can cause accidents like it has in the past.
