We are closely monitoring the situation at the DMV in New Castle, and I want to be clear that there is no active threat to the public at this time. Law enforcement acted swiftly to secure the scene, and the shooter has been confirmed deceased.

No one should go into debt just to stay alive.

That's why we're cancelling nearly $19M in medical debt for more 18,000 Delawareans through our partnership with Undue Medical Debt, helping hardworking Delaware families breathe easier this holiday season.

I want Delawareans to know about Victor Acurio Suarez.

Victor is a Seaford resident and asylum seeker with severe developmental delays who has been detained by federal immigration authorities. What has happened to him is deeply disturbing. 🧵⬇️

We need dramatic change to deliver the educational outcomes families in New Castle County, and all across Delaware, expect and deserve. Every taxpayer deserves to have more of their dollars go to their child's classroom, and less to bureaucracy and administrative costs.

The first night of Hanukkah should've been a time of celebration for Sydney's Jewish community. Instead, 11 people were gunned down and 29 others wounded in an act of terror.

Happy Delaware Day!

In this week’s #MeyerMinute, we’re celebrating the moment almost 238 years ago when Delaware became the first state to ratify the Constitution, and held that title alone for five days.

In this week's #MeyerMinute, we stopped by 10kthelongway to see how state and local support can help small businesses grow. Places like this create jobs, bring energy to our downtowns, & show what’s possible when talented Delawareans get the backing they need to thrive.

Happy Thanksgiving, Delaware. I’m grateful for the people who make this state feel like home: our farmers, first responders, entrepreneurs, teachers, and every family that helps make our communities stronger.

The shooting of two West Virginia National Guard members in Washington, D.C. today is beyond horrifying.

Our guardsmen and women are dedicated to protecting and serving all Americans, regardless of politics, and they deserve our respect, not our hate and violence.

When Washington shut down, Delaware didn’t wait. We kept SNAP benefits funded because families rely on them to put food on the table. In our state, we take care of our own, especially when times get tough.

Honored to be at Delaware State Police Troop 6 Headquarters to recognize Lt. Douglas Deveney as he completed his walkout ceremony, marking the end of a remarkable 29-year career with the State Police.

Every Delawarean deserves to live with dignity and without fear.

On Transgender Day of Remembrance, we honor the trans lives taken by violence and reaffirm our commitment to protecting and uplifting our transgender community.

Trump’s Big Bill isn’t so beautiful for Delaware. Washington’s tax changes would have cost our state $400M.

That's why I was proud to sign legislation to opt Delaware out of those federal changes to protect state services.

I’ll always put our state first.

Strong communities start with strong healthcare.

That’s why we’re proposing a historic investment to transform rural health across Delaware; expanding access, lowering costs, and growing the workforce to improve outcomes for families in every corner of our state.

When Washington shut down, Delaware didn’t wait.

We stepped up to make sure families still had the food assistance they rely on, because in our state, we look out for one another.

Keeping Delawareans safe, healthy, and financially secure will always be our top priority.

Affordable, high-quality healthcare shouldn’t be this hard. But Congress needs to work together before costs spike for millions of families.

In Delaware, we’re staying focused on what matters: making sure every hardworking resident can get the care they need at a price they can afford.

Last night at the EDGE 2.0 awards, we saw exactly why small businesses are the heart of Delaware’s economy.

The shutdown is over. Healthcare is an f'in mess.

Can we focus on affordable, high quality healthcare for all hardworking Americans, please?

On #VeteransDay, we honor all who have worn our nation’s uniform, and the families who’ve stood beside them.

To our veterans and Gold Star Families: your courage, sacrifice, and strength embody what it means to be an American.

My administration will always stand behind those who step up to serve.

This week, we welcomed a new AmeriCorps class and honored Sheryl Hill Dyer’s incredible career of service.

No Delawarean should ever have to wonder where their next meal is coming from.

Congrats to @abigailspanberger.com and @mikiesherrill.bsky.social on their historic victories! Voters in Virginia and New Jersey chose common sense over chaos, and I’m excited to work together to make life better for families up and down the mid-Atlantic.
