Could Delaware's Forests Help Solve Our Energy Problems? As development continues to transform Sussex County, we need to think more carefully about how we preserve and manage our remaining forests, and whether they could also help us produce more affordable energy right here in Delaware.

At our last School Board meeting, we approved a preliminary $246 million budget, reviewed student achievement, discussed declining enrollment, rising substitute teacher costs, and continued looking at our buildings, energy expenses, and our Ingrams Pond property. My approach on the Board remains pretty simple: when we spend money on a program, I want to know whether it is working. And when we identify a problem, I want to know what solution we can find.

Please plan to attend this "Meet the Candidates" forum featuring our own Sussex County Councilman Doug Hudson, who will be challenged by the democratic opponent for his seat. This event is organized by the left-leaning League of Women Voters, and the moderators are registered Democrats. Please come out to show your support and hear about Doug Hudson's accomplishments, as well as the criticisms without solutions from the progressive, pro-offshore wind, pro-remove local control, socialist-Democrat
