Amy on the Issues

As a Mother to two daughters, one with special needs, Amy understands the unique issues facing the state of Delaware's education system. Being a first-hand witness to the lack of institutional structure, Amy will focus on grades, discipline, structure, and accountability. Amy has served on the PTO for multiple schools so she could work with educators to ensure students received the best education and teachers received the resources they needed. Amy looks to use her elected position to make Delaware schools more accessible for children with special needs. 

Amy is an avid supporter of small businesses and local arts. She served on the board of the Greater Dover Arts Council and the Dover Art League and knows firsthand the obstacles that small businesses and local artists face. Amy believes that our communities thrive when local businesses, not chain stores, are on our street corners because our small businesses give back to our community. Amy will fight for the small businesses and local arts in Dover.

Living in Dover, Amy is saddened by the amount of homeless population our city has. In the House, Amy will create a commission to investigate the root cause of homelessness and implement solutions to clean up our communities. Amy will help this vulnerable community and improve their situation. In Dover, Amy will support a mentorship program to help this population with job hunting and resumes. Amy plans to treat our homeless population with kindness while helping them get off of the streets.
