Today wraps up a light week in Dover when it comes to legislation the State Chamber is following. House Bill 1 & House Bill 2, legalization of recreational marijuana, were released from Senate committee. Both bills have been placed on the Senate ready list, making recreational marijuana in Delaware one step closer to passage. To date, twenty-one states and D.C. have legalized recreational marijuana. We thank Representative Osienski for engaging in conversation with us, listening to our concerns, and adding language into the bill that gives businesses the flexibility to keep and maintain their policies pertaining to drugs and alcohol. You can view a copy of the amendment here. Next week the General Assembly is out of session for Bond break. They’ll return to session on Tuesday, March 28, which is the date of our annual Manufacturing and Policy Conference. You can learn more about and register for the event here.

![]() By Tyler Micik The Delaware General Assembly returned to session on Tuesday after a five-week break. Of note this week: SB58: Removal of Copay Requirements for Delaware Families In Need – Provides financial support to Delaware families seeking childcare by removing copays for Delaware families earning up to 200% of the federal poverty level and reimburses Purchase of Care (POC) providers for 15 absent days per child per month. This bill may help employers attract new workers and retain current employees who may be faced with the choice of working or staying home with their children. It’s also a benefit to early childcare centers in that it will increase the number of paid absent days for POC recipients which in turn could incentivize more early childhood providers to accept POC children. Increasing the number of paid absent days will go a long way to helping early childhood providers maintain financial stability within their centers. State Chamber Position: Support Status: Released from Senate Health & Social Services Committee and assigned to Senate Finance SB59: Act to Establish a Statewide Rate of Purchase of Care for Child Care Providers – Directs the Department of Health and Social Services to pay a statewide rate to all childcare providers that is aligned with the New Castle County rate (as determined by the 2021 Delaware Local Child Care Market Rate Survey) through existing program funds. Childcare providers are struggling to find and attract talent because they are unable to compete for workers due to funding limits. Kent and Sussex County childcare programs currently receive 40% less than those in New Castle County – while they face the same costs for staff and supplies. State Chamber Position: Support Status: Released from Senate Health & Social Services Committee and assigned to Senate Finance SB43: Display of Human Trafficking Public Awareness Signs - This Act adds additional State facilities and categories of establishments to § 787 of Title 11, which would be required to display public awareness signs about human trafficking. Such facilities and categories include state service centers, wellness centers, residential childcare facilities, transitional and independent living service providers for youth aging out of foster care, shelters for victims of domestic violence or sexual assault or individuals experiencing homelessness or food insecurity, hotels, convenience stores along a major highway, gas stations along a major highway, casinos, restaurants with liquor licenses, poultry processing plants, bus or train stations, bars, massage establishments, and shopping malls. The Act includes specific locations on the premises where establishments must display a public awareness sign and adjusts the process by which the Delaware Anti-Trafficking Action Council may designate establishments required to display public awareness signs. Additionally, it allows the Council to promulgate regulations to designate other categories of establishments that must display public awareness signs, designate a specific location on the premises for a category of establishments where a public awareness sign must be displayed, and change requirements for what must be included in a “public awareness sign”, as defined in this Act. It also establishes an enforcement process, including the requirement that establishments will receive a warning before any civil penalties are assessed. If an establishment does not correct the noncompliance, its owner is subject to a civil penalty of up to $500 for their first offense and up to $2,500 their second. State Chamber Position: Opposed Status: Released from Senate Judiciary Committee and assigned to Senate Finance HB41: Digital Right to Repair - Currently when an electronic product such as a phone or electronic game breaks, it is only allowed to be repaired by the manufacturer. Parts are not available whether you are a consumer or a local repair shop. This Act requires the manufacturer to make parts, documentation, tools, and updates available on fair and reasonable terms. State Chamber Position: Engaged and gathering feedback Status: Released from House Economic Development/Banking/Insurance & Commerce Committee and moves to the House for a full vote HB1 & HB2: Legalization of Recreational Marijuana – Would legalize and tax recreational marijuana in the same manner as alcohol. HB1 removes all penalties for possession of one ounce or less of marijuana and HB2 is the “regulation and tax” piece. The State Chamber thanks Representative Osienski for taking our concerns into consideration and incorporating language into the bill that gives employers the flexibility to keep and maintain their policies regarding drugs and alcohol. You can view a copy of the amendment here. State Chamber Position: Neutral based on amended language Status: Both bills passed the House and have been assigned to committee in the Senate We expect to see movement on more bills next week such as SB51, known as the Polystyrene bill, and we will continue to keep our members updated as these proposals move forward. As always, if you have feedback on any of the bills mentioned above or others, please contact me at tmicik@dscc.com. We want to hear from you! ![]() By Tyler Micik In late January, Chris Counihan, Director, Division of Paid Leave for the Delaware Department of Labor (DDOL), shared the draft regulations for Delaware’s new Paid Family Medical Leave insurance program. Chris asked the State Chamber, among others, to submit feedback to the DDOL on the regulations by February 7 so the Department could have time to review everyone’s suggestions and submit a revised version of the regulations to the Office of the Registrar by February 15. The State Chamber asked Timothy Holly, Esq., a partner in the labor and employment law department of Connolly Gallagher, LLP, to review the regulations and help formulate a response to the 42 pages of draft regulations on behalf of DSCC. These regulations are complicated for many, especially smaller businesses who are trying to navigate both Delaware and federal laws like the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). It will to take time for employers to sort out what this new law means and how it will be implemented in real time and administered. Time is of the essence. Delaware employers have a deadline of January 1, 2024, to take action if they want to pursue the opportunity to opt out of Delaware’s public plan and perhaps also potentially reduce the amount of parental leave they will be required to provide, though details for that are unclear. Employers must also be prepared to take action as it pertains to providing various notices to employees including regarding the amount of “contribution” that will be passed ontito employees through payroll deduction, particularly since many employees likely are unaware of this consequence to them from the new law (i.e. less pay in their pocket). In February, Holly submitted a letter to the DDOL on behalf of the State Chamber which presents high-level comments and provides regulation-specific observations, requests, and/or concerns. Some examples from the letter include:
You can view the State Chamber’s full response to the draft regulations here. The State Chamber hopes this feedback, in addition to other’s recommendations, can be used to help the DDOL produce regulations that will be informative, helpful, and less burdensome on businesses as this new law is learned, implemented, and administered. Although the February deadline has passed, the Department is still seeking feedback. It’s important for businesses to stay engaged throughout this process and read carefully through the draft and final regulations. While the State Chamber’s letter may be used by others to help tease out some thoughts and questions, others should continue to formulate their own comments, even if it’s only on a particular section of the draft regulations like grandfathering of private plans and share those comments with the DDOL and legislators. ![]() By Tyler Micik The 152nd General Assembly gaveled into session last month and several bills were introduced that are noteworthy. HB1 & HB2: Legalization of Recreational Marijuana This is the return of Rep. Osienski's two-part approach to legalize and tax recreational marijuana in the same manner as alcohol. HB1 removes all penalties for possession of one ounce or less of marijuana and HB2 is the “regulation and tax” piece. The State Chamber testified in opposition to HB2 as written when the bill was heard in the House Revenue and Finance Committee and requested the agreed upon language relating to the impact of legalization and regulation on employers and employees from last year be added back into the bill. Some companies have federal contracts, and the federal government insists on a zero-tolerance policy. Similarly, regardless of whether companies have federal contracts, they simply want the ability to maintain their own policies without state laws or regulations superseding company policy. The amendment gives employers the flexibility to keep and maintain their policies regarding drugs and alcohol. Osienski agreed to add the language back into the bill after the hearing. Both bills were released from Committee. State Chamber Position: Neutral based on amended language Status: HB1 now moves to the House for a full vote and HB2 has been assigned to House Appropriations SB35: Bond and Capital Improvements (Mini-Bond) Controversy over the bill ensued because the bill's epilogue language called for the creation of a pilot program under the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and DelDOT, which mandates project labor agreements (PLAs) on state funded construction projects. The bill targets six projects: Hodgson school; DNREC Lab; Hospital for the Chronically Ill; OMB Food Building; and two DelDOT projects which have not been identified yet. All four OMB projects contain PLAs, while only one project (Hodgson) included a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) requirement. The State Chamber worked with the Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) and the Delaware Black Chamber of Commerce (DEBCC) to push for several amendments such as removing the PLA requirements, placing DBE requirements on all projects, and requiring that all projects be completed by bona fide legal residents of the State to ensure Delawareans were the ones benefiting from the projects but all amendments were defeated. State Chamber Position: Opposed Status: Signed by the Governor on January 26, 2023 Other bills that saw movement: HB49: Unemployment Benefits and Employer Assessments - Provides post-pandemic related relief to both claimants receiving unemployment benefits and employers who are assessed unemployment taxes. The bill increases the maximum weekly benefit amount payable to claimants seeking unemployment compensation benefits from the Delaware Department of Labor, Division of Unemployment Insurance from $400 per week to $450 per week. The funds necessary to pay the increased weekly benefit amounts will be paid from the Unemployment Trust Fund. State Chamber Position: Neutral Status: Signed by the Governor on January 26, 2023 HB36: Realty Transfer Tax - Decreases by 1% the rate of the realty transfer tax to be received by the State, thereby returning it to the rate that was applicable prior to August 1, 2017. It also makes technical corrections to conform existing law to the standards of the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual. This Act will apply to documents recorded and permits applied for after the effective date of the Act. State Chamber Position: Support Status: Released from House Revenue & Finance Committee on 1/24 and assigned to House Appropriations HB41: Digital Right to Repair - Currently when an electronic product such as a phone or electronic game breaks, it is only allowed to be repaired by the manufacturer. Parts are not available whether you are a consumer or a local repair shop. This Act requires the manufacturer to make parts, documentation, tools, and updates available on fair and reasonable terms. State Chamber Position: Engaged and gathering feedback Status: Assigned to Economic Development/Banking/Insurance & Commerce Committee HB55: Homeless Bill of Rights - Ensures that all individuals, regardless of housing status, have equal opportunity to live in decent, safe, sanitary, and healthful accommodations and enjoy equal opportunities. It sets forth the rights of individuals experiencing homelessness and creates a process by which the State Human and Civil Rights Commission and the Division of Human Relations may accept and investigate complaints of discriminatory treatment, attempt conciliation, and refer enforcement actions to the Department of Justice where necessary. State Chamber Position: Engaged and gathering feedback Status: Assigned to House Judiciary Committee In addition to these bills there are several environmental proposals floating around, which the State Chamber is monitoring and engaging in conversations with our members. It’s important for all businesses, large and small, and their employees to be aware of these proposals and start getting involved in the conversation because they will have lasting impacts for all Delawareans. These proposals include: Delaware Climate Change Solutions Act: Commonly known last session as SB305, this places the Governor's Climate Action plan into law and regulation. A bill has not been introduced yet this year, but one is expected soon. Two sets of recommendations have been sent to DNREC Secretary Garvin, Sen. Hansen, and Rep. Heffernan on behalf of the State Chamber, New Castle County Chamber, and our members. Zero Emissions Vehicles: In March 2022, Governor Carney directed DNREC to promulgate regulations to implement California’s Advanced Clean Car II standards – joining 13 other states surrendering their transportation policy autonomy to CA. Although Delaware meets EPA standards in all three counites, it does not meet CA standards in New Castle County (per monitoring station in Bucks County, PA). Given this, DNREC plans to adopt regulations that by 2035, all new passenger cars, trucks, and SUVs sold in Delaware will be required to be zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs). So, what does this mean? It appears that beginning in Model Year 2026 (Fall 2025), 35% of all new cars sold in Delaware will need to be zero-emissions. By Fall 2031, over three-quarters of all cars sold will be required to be ZEVs, with the sale of new gasoline and diesel-powered vehicles banned by late 2034. New Castle County 2050 Economic Development Plan: New Castle County Department of Land Use is holding meetings to seek public input regarding the 2050 NCC Comprehensive Plan. According to the County, the objective is “to develop policies and programs to create an economic environment that supports a range of industries while ensuring policy is based on leveraging equitable and robust outcomes that limit or mitigate negative community impacts." The State Chamber is looking for feedback from members on how any of these proposals may impact you. Please direct feedback to tmicik@dscc.com. The General Assembly is in recess through the month of February for Joint Finance Committee meetings. They will return on Tuesday, March 7. This is a good time to engage with legislators by phone, Zoom, or schedule a visit to your office. The State Chamber can help. Contact Tyler Micik for assistance. ![]() By Michael J. Quaranta The new normal is not the old normal or whatever that was! This year started off with a new variant of COVID-19—Omicron—and the postponement of our Annual Dinner. Supply chain woes slowly began to resolve themselves but still persist. International disruptions were experienced as a direct result of the Russian invasion of the Ukraine and created roiling energy markets and more. The Federal Reserve Bank raised the federal funds rate multiple times to spell inflation concerns, while borrowing costs surged for consumers and businesses alike. These and other challenges served as a backdrop for State Chamber members who continue to wrestle with workforce scarcity. As Baby Boomers continue to reach retirement eligibility at a pace of 10,000 per day—a rate that will not relent until 2029—employers face enormous pressure to fill jobs. Without the immediate relief that could come from a strategic immigration policy; changes to Social Security wage laws that restrict the income of older workers; or elected leaders doing more to meet the emergency of job vacancies in industries like health care, teaching, technology, and the building trades, technology will march on and idle more of us without in-demand skills. If nothing else, 2022 proved that we have work to do and precious little time to waste. Workforce remains a top priority for the business community, as does the speed with which permitting decisions are made. We need policymakers to be a partner in solving these challenges and recognize that business cycles are moving faster than ever. We also need to recognize that new laws and regulations, while created separately, have an accumulated effect on businesses and that oftentimes is a fact that goes under appreciated. Now more than ever it is important for each of us to invite elected officials into your place of business—be it an office, store, factory, or school—and help them understand what you do, how you do it, the supplies you need to accomplish your end-product, who your customers are, and how incredibly valuable your employees are to your success. Policymakers are called upon to make decisions on a wide range of issues every day, and there is no possible way they can fully appreciate the impacts the choices they make will have on you and your colleagues. That’s why it is so important for you to establish those relationships early and continue sharing updates as your priorities change, customers grow, or supplies run dry. They cannot make good decisions with limited information. This is why you are such a critical link to better policy outcomes. Politics in Delaware are changing, and it follows then that the decisions made will be different too. Your participation and involvement will help shape the outcome in the new year and beyond. I’m certain of that. ![]() By Tyler Micik The State Chamber’s Employer Advocacy Committee met in late October for their quarterly meeting. The committee was joined by Chris Counihan, Delaware Department of Labor’s (DOL) Paid Family and Medical Leave implementation manager. Counihan joined the Department in August with the task of setting up the new insurance program, along with a new division within the DOL to administer it. The new division will add between 35 to 60 employees to the Department, and they expect to be fully staffed by 2025. Counihan discussed a few details within the Paid Family and Medical Leave Program—who is covered, when the program begins, and when benefits are available. Some important dates for employers to be aware of:
Additionally, Counihan asked committee members for ideas on how the program could be set up, so the system is simple and smooth for both employers and their employees to use. One topic considered was eliminating double entry of information. In addition to passing the Healthy Delaware Families Act (PFML), the General Assembly also passed Delaware EARNS, which establishes a State-run voluntary employee IRA savings program. Both programs start the same day—January 1, 2025. Similarly, both require the creation of two new programs within two separate departments, one within the DOL and other in the State Treasurer’s office. Considering this, our members suggested creating a “one stop” system where employers can go to input information once for both programs. Small businesses have limited resources and creating a system that gives employers the ability to input information once for a variety of programs, such as PFML and EARNS, is important because it streamlines the process and saves employers valuable time and resources. Taking the committee’s suggestion into consideration, after the meeting, Counihan held a preliminary meeting with the State Treasurer’s office to create a single data entry point for both programs. Additionally, they will be extending this initiative so that it becomes part of the DOL’s Unemployment Insurance and Workers Comp modernization efforts. There are also conversations on looping in the Department of Revenue so that all these programs and taxes are submitted through one entry point.

The State Chamber is the state’s largest business advocacy organization—representing employers and their employees. We hope that your body of work in 2023 will position Delaware for success, and we look forward to working with you. In that spirit we submit to you our policy priorities, which you can find here (and below) and on our website. It includes items we believe need action. Our policy priorities are a coordinated list of feedback from our members, which includes businesses of all sizes and industries across the state. TO OUR MEMBERS: It’s important to note that nine new legislators were elected in November. That includes three seats in the Senate and six in the House. Six of the nine seats were open following the retirements of Representatives David Bentz, Andria Bennett, John Kowalko, and Senators Bruce Ennis and Ernie Lopez. Additionally, two other seats were open after Representative Steve Smyk chose to run for State Senate instead of his House seat, and an extra seat was created in central Sussex County after redistricting. The nine newly elected legislators are: Russ Huxtable (SD 6), Kyra Hoffner (SD 14), Eric Buckson (SD 16), Jeff Hilovsky (RD 4), DeShanna Neal (RD 13), Sophie Phillips (RD 18), Stell Parker Selby (RD 20), Cyndie Romer (RD 25), and Kerri Evelyn Harris (RD 32). The makeup of Democrats to Republicans in the House will remain the same at 26 (D) to 15 (R). In the Senate, Democrats picked up one seat, strengthening their majority to 15 and reducing the Republican Caucus to six. The House Democratic Caucus will remain the same with Pete Schwartzkopf as Speaker of the House and Valerie Longhurst as Majority Leader. Melissa Minor-Brown has been named the new Majority Whip, replacing Larry Mitchell who lost his primary. The Senate Democratic Caucus remains the same with President Pro Tempore David Sokola, Majority Leader Bryan Townsend, and Majority Whip Elizabeth Lockman. On the Republican side, the House will see new leadership with Mike Ramone as Minority Leader and Lyndon Yearick as Minority Whip. The Senate Minority Caucus remains the same with Gerald Hocker as Minority Leader and Brian Pettyjohn as Minority Whip. Overall, voter turnout was down this year. According to the Delaware Department of Elections, approximately 325,620 ballots were cast out of 762,908 registered voters—that’s a 42.68% turnout. In 2018, the last midterm election cycle, 52.2% of eligible Delawareans voted. Thomas Jefferson once said: “We do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate.” Whatever your opinions may be on Delaware’s elections, the results are in, and the 152nd General Assembly convenes on January 10. The State Chamber will continue to do our part to help bridge all sides and advocate for Delaware employers and their employees. But we need you to participate! Schedule a meeting with a legislator, testify at a committee hearing, or join a State Chamber committee. The policy decisions made over the next six months will have an impact on you, your employees, and Delaware’s future. To learn more about the election results and implications, the State Chamber’s policy priorities for 2023, or join a committee, please reach out to me at tmicik@dscc.com. ![]() By Tyler Micik In January, we’ll see nine new faces in Legislative Hall—three in the Senate and six in the House.

While Delaware’s students are receiving quality education and graduating career ready, there are still many career paths that are either overlooked or lack the partnerships needed to create settings and experiences for students to gain hands-on experience and exposure to careers like pediatric care. But there’s good news! Through programs like our Delaware Principal for a Day program, tremendous opportunities are expanding for our students. Hosted by the Delaware State Chamber of Commerce’s workforce development affiliate—The Partnership, Inc.—Delaware Principal for a Day facilitated 80 visits in 61 schools across the state last week. The program has been creating strong connections between educators and the business community for over 30 years, and with a reimagined focus this year, schools and business leaders were strategically matched to help facilitate intentional and impactful partnerships. An example of one of these pairings is Nemours Children’s Health who visited two vocational-technical high schools, Delcastle Technical High School and St. George’s Vocational Technical High School. These matches were made with the intention to foster discussions around the integration of pediatric training in our schools. They aren’t the only long-term partnership resulting from the program. By identifying the needs of the participating schools in five focus areas, The Partnership paired each school with a business leader who has a unique skill set to support in the identified area. Five focus areas: 1. Basics of Project Management (Time Management, Teamwork + Delegating tasks) 2. Job Readiness (Soft Skills, Resume + Interview prep) 3. Mentorship and Internship Opportunities 4. Program/Club Development 5. Personal Finance Training (Budgeting, Credit Cards, Interest, etc.) Our business community was able to see first-hand the transformative and innovative workforce development programs that already exist in our schools. They also had the opportunity to share with students their own professional experiences; define what job readiness means in their industry; discuss open job and co-op opportunities; hear from principals, educators, and counselors; and much more. The climate of our workforce is ever evolving. Now more than ever, it’s imperative for our education and business communities to invest in the next generation of prospective employees—together. Please reach out to me at hrodriguez@dscc.com if you want to be a part of developing our future workforce! We want you at the table. 2022 VISITS: ![]() By Tyler Micik JOHN F. KENNEDY ONCE SAID, “Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer, but the right answer.” At the time of writing this article, six weeks remain before the General Election. While we may not be able to accurately predict the outcomes on November 8, the primary election results continued a movement towards Democrats nominating more progressive candidates. Of note, progressive Representatives Eric Morrison and Madinah Wilson-Anton defeated their opponents. In four open seats, a more progressive Democrat won against a more moderate challenger. Kyra Hoffner (SD 14), Sophie Phillips (RD 18), Cyndie Romer (RD 25), and Kerri Evelyn Harris (RD 32) all won their races. Moderate Democrats won too. Representatives Debra Heffernan, Nnamdi Chukwuocha, and Stephanie Bolden successfully defended their seats. Lastly, DeShanna Neal beat House Majority Whip Larry Mitchell by 44 votes. The big question now is what does this mean for businesses and their employees? In January, we expect to see at least eight new legislators in the General Assembly and possibly more after the General Election. Add to that possible changes in leadership and committee assignments and that means significant changes in policy choices impacting Delawareans. New legislators bring fresh perspectives and a sense of eagerness, but many have limited business experience and institutional knowledge of Legislative Hall. Expect for many of these new legislators to promote issues such as police reform, organized labor’s agenda, environmental justice, and paid time off. Although well-intended, these policy proposals could have negative impacts on Delaware’s economy and harm the very people they’re intended to help. Now more than ever it’s vital for business leaders to develop relationships with new and incumbent legislators. Meet with them, give them a tour of your facility, and show them first-hand the impacts their policy choices will have on employees and customers. Similarly, we hope more legislators will engage in conversations and be open to incorporating feedback from all stakeholders in their policy proposals. After all, that’s the “Delaware Way”; I like to quote Bob Byrd who once said the “Delaware Way” is the idea that as a state, we can get all the right decision makers in one room to have a conversation and reach an agreement. Whatever the outcome of the November elections, the General Assembly will be different, and the State Chamber will continue to advocate not for the “Republican or Democratic answer”, but the Delaware answer—the one that positions Delaware employers, their employees, and all Delawareans for success. New legislators and business leaders can learn a lot from one another, and we will do our part to help bridge both sides so we understand each other’s point of view and create a shared vision for Delaware’s future.
