WHAT: The Delaware Legislative Black Caucus will unveil a package of legislative priorities designed to address the systemic racial injustice faced by people of color.
The proposals were developed in the aftermath of protests sparked by the most recent examples of police brutality against black and brown Americans that have plagued our nation for generations. The legislative package also follows passage of nearly a dozen criminal justice reform bills signed into law during the first half of the 150th General Assembly.
