11 Point Plan

The entire state of Delaware could disappear tomorrow, and it would have virtually ZERO impact on global climate change

Delaware's Electric Vehicle (EV) Mandate, known as the Advanced Clean Car II Act, was recently approved to encourage the transition to zero‑emission vehicles (ZEVs). The mandate begins with the 2027 model year and gradually increased targets for ZEV sales in the state. Starting in 2027, 43% of new cars and trucks sold in Delaware must be ZEVs, with this figure rising to 82% by 2032. The mandate applies to passenger vehicles but exempts larger vehicles like semi‑trucks, school buses, and delivery trucks. It expires by model year 2033.

I oppose Delaware's Advanced Clean Car II mandate because it imposes unfair burdens on working and middle‑class families, artificially limiting vehicle options and increasing the cost of living ‑ all the while doing literally NOTHING about climate change.

The fact is, the entire state of Delaware could disappear tomorrow, and it would have virtually ZERO impact on global climate change. Moreover, it's not going to curb the use of traditional gasoline‑fueled vehicles; It's just going to make our people go to neighboring states to buy new cars ‑ and put our family‑owned dealerships out of business.

Laws like these primarily serve to let the more privileged and financially secure among us virtue signal at the expense of ordinary citizens who must bear the financial cost and practical consequences. As your State Senator, I will fight to repeal this mandate that prioritizes appearances over actual results, and I will promote realistic, practical, and fair environmental policies that respect the needs of all Delawareans.

Here's a brief news report about why people prefer gasoline powered vehicles ‑ and why politicians don't!

Delaware also needs to WITHDRAW from the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) SCAM.

The Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) is a voluntary cooperative effort among several U.S. states - Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Virginia (though Virginia has taken steps to withdraw from the program) - to supposedly reduce greenhouse gas emissions through a market-based cap-and-trade program.

This racket makes power providers buy allowances from the State Government for each ton of CO₂ they emit. The revenue generated by this TAX ostensibly gets used to fund "green energy projects", "energy efficiency programs", and other boondoggles with oh-so-noble sounding names that enrich a select few at the expense of the working men and women of Delaware.

This is a voluntary Cap-And-Trade program that Delaware CHOOSES to participate in, and it ARTIFICIALLY RAISES THE OPERATING EXPENSES OF POWER PROVIDERS, WHO SIMPLY PASS THAT ADDITIONAL COST ON TO US.

WE NEED TO GET OUT OF THIS ASAP!

Pennsylvania has resisted this swindle - at least for now.

We need to INVEST in the TRUE CLEAN, GREEN ENERGY that the future is actually going to be built around.

Wind is far less efficient in that Natural Gas, both in terms of Capacity and Thermal Efficiency. It's also environmentally destructive in and of itself - not to mention the fact that it's an incredible eyesore.

Nevertheless, there's a lot of money to be made by pushing the "Green Energy" narrative, and that's why politicians fall all over themselves talking it up. Two companies are primarily involved in force-feeding us this scam.

US Wind, which has formal agreements with the State of Delaware, and Equinor Wind US, which has secured offshore wind energy leases from the Federal government in the U.S. Central Atlantic region, making future collaborations with the State of Delaware likely. Both are PRIVATELY HELD COMPANIES that are not publicly traded, and BOTH ARE PRIMARILY CONTROLLED BY FOREIGN INVESTORS.

True "Green Energy" is best represented by next-generation nuclear power, particularly the promise of sustained fusion reactors in the coming decades, followed by the development of commercial plants.

Within 50 years or so, fusion energy will be 100% CLEAN, PRODUCE NO RADIOACTIVE WASTE, AND WILL BE VIRTUALLY LIMITLESS. It will also provide high-paying, high-quality jobs for local economies, transforming them into epicenters of technology. We need to ditch the wind power bill-of-goods that's been sold to us with phony, short-term "feel-goodism" and start doing the smart thing by playing the long game. Delaware should join Virginia in leading the way.

And while we're working on making sustained fusion reactors a reality, Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are a new type of nuclear reactor that are smaller in size and built in factories, making them quicker and cheaper to install than traditional nuclear power plants. SMRs are designed with advanced safety features, require less land, and can provide clean, reliable, carbon-free energy.

The first SMRs are projected to come online in the early 2030s, with developments already underway in states like Texas and Wyoming. Delaware should jump on this bullet train to the future as well.

We also need to focus on our most IMMEDIATE Environmental Problems.

Microplastics in our environment is a far more immediate environmental problem than climate change. Most people don't realize that only a tiny fraction of the plastic waste we throw into our recycle bins actually gets recycled. Most of it gets incinerated or ends up in a landfill, eventually contaminating our drinking water. If Delaware is serious about green initiatives, investing more in Advanced Plastics Recycling technology and research could be a powerful driver for job creation, industry growth, and increased revenue for Delaware.
