Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2020

For some time, economic issues have been at the forefront of the minds of so many hardworking Americans and the poor. In the wealthiest nation in the history of the world, Americans should not have to hold multiple jobs to survive. Here in Delaware, our economy has been relatively stagnant for some time.
Furthermore, wealth and income inequality in the world, in the nation, and in Delaware is reaching historic levels. Such inequality is not just morally repugnant, but socially and economically unsustainable. Hardworking Delawareans deserve a level playing field and meaningful opportunities. We deserve to feel real hope for our futures. We can do better for us, our children, and our grandchildren.
