What uniquely qualifies you for this office?
My experience has prepared me for the challenges of leading our state. As an attorney who has practiced in Delaware’s courts, I am uniquely qualified to chair the Board of Pardons, and my work in our State Senate has prepared me to preside in the same chamber. I have a track record of effective leadership and advancing policies benefiting Delawareans and their families.
My time in elected office has given me the opportunity to see the challenges facing so many of my fellow Delawareans – and I can relate. Just like them, I know that the cost of living is too expensive, and I will continue to work as Lieutenant Governor to address rising costs for our communities. I want a strong public school system that will provide a quality education for my two daughters and kids across our state. I share Delawareans’ concerns about combating climate change; too many government officials have passed the buck on this issue, and it’s unacceptable to continue to burden future generations with this liability. And as I see voting rights and reproductive freedoms being eroded at the national level, I join other parents who are concerned about the future our children may face.
