AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoDelaware Election Watch: Delaware lawmakers ended the 153rd General Assembly session early Wednesday, but several election bills stalled—HB 65 (moving primaries to the fourth Tuesday in April) died in the Senate Executive Committee, HB 188 (letting unaffiliated voters choose a party primary) passed the House but missed final Senate approval, and HB 183 (special primaries for vacant seats) also failed to clear before adjournment. Late-Session Policy Push: Lawmakers still cleared a slate of major measures before nearly 5 a.m. adjournment, including a large-energy/data-center package requiring utility agreements and renewable procurement, plus other items tied to firearms rules, schools, and firefighter background checks. Wetlands Win: The Nature Conservancy praised passage of the Wetland Stewardship Act (SB 9), a long-fought effort to protect freshwater and non-tidal wetlands and tighten DNREC permitting timelines. National Health Fight With Delaware Ties: A coalition of at least 25 states (including Delaware) sued the Trump administration over Medicaid work requirements, arguing the rule unlawfully restricts access and forces extra documentation for medically vulnerable people. Heat Relief: Cooling centers opened across Delmarva as a heat wave hit, with Delaware and regional partners urging seniors to use free air-conditioned spaces.
