William G. Bush, Stephanie L. Hansen, Kyra L. Hoffner
Last updated 7 months ago
22 Co-Sponsors
This Act creates a new offense of Aggravated Criminal Mischief with enhanced penalties (class D felony) applicable when an individual knowingly damages or tampers with critical utility infrastructure intending to disrupt utility services. In recent years, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI have issued repeated warnings about domestic terrorists and extremist groups targeting critical utility infrastructure. Bulletins issued through DHS National Terrorism Advisory System in 2022 warned of a heightened threat environment based, in part, on continued calls for violence directed at U.S. critical infrastructure. Physical and computerized attacks on electric utility equipment have reached a 10-year high in 2022. Recent attacks in Washington and North Carolina have caused substantial outages and damage to the power grids in both states.

HB149 - An Act To Amend Title 30 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Personal Income Taxes.
Richard G. Collins, Gerald W. Hocker, Bryant L. Richardson
Last updated 6 months ago
10 Co-Sponsors
This Act requires personal income tax brackets to be annually adjusted for cost-of-living increases. This will prevent tax rate increases resulting from cost-of-living pay increases that push lower income taxpayers into higher tax brackets. This is referred to as "bracket creep". Cost-of-living pay increases are intended to offset inflation and not create a greater tax burden on lower income taxpayers. Social justice requires that lower income taxpayers should not face both inflation and higher tax rates at the same time. This Act will be effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2024.
