| HB190 | An Act To Amend Title 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Grants-in-aid. | This Act creates a new Grant-in-Aid Subcommittee (Subcommittee) of the Joint Finance Committee and codifies requirements and procedures for organizations seeking a grant-in-aid from the General Assembly. The Subcommittee will be composed of 3 members of the Senate and 3 members of the House, with the Chair alternating between the chambers each year.

| HB187 | An Act To Amend Title 4 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Direct Purchasing And Shipment Of Wine. | Like House Bill 187, this substitute permits wine producers holding a valid license within this State or another state to obtain a license and ship wine directly to Delaware consumers, so long as it is done through a common carrier permit. This substitute act adjusts the language in this act to be consistent with the Liquor Control Act (LCA). Language regarding common carrier licenses has been moved to Chapter 5 of Title 4. It adds a definition for "common carrier" and requires age verification training for common carrier employees and independent contractors, with training to be approved by the Commissioner. This substitute also extends the effective date of the Act to 365 days after enactment into law and requires the Commissioner to study the impact of this Act on wine retailers and submit the results of such study to the Governor and the General Assembly by June 1, 2028. This substitute also adds a sunset provision of 5 years to the Act, unless otherwise provided by a subsequent act of the General Assembly. | Passed |

| HB168 | An Act To Amend Title 11 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Noncompliance With Sentencing. | This Act makes it a class G felony if a person breaches a no contact provision of the person's sentencing order, where the sentence was for 1 or more felonies. This Act also makes it a class A misdemeanor if a person breaches a no contact provision of the person's sentencing order, where the sentence was for 1 or more misdemeanors and no felonies. | Crossed Over |
| SB187 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Educator And School-based Mental Health Practitioners Support Programs. | The Department of Education (Department) currently administers the High Needs Educator Student Loan Repayment Program, the Speech-Language Pathologist Student Loan Repayment Program, and the Mental Health Services Student Loan Repayment Program. | Signed/Enacted/Adopted |
| SB165 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Student Improvement Component. | Like Senate Bill No. 165, this Act requires the Department of Education to pilot a revised student improvement component under the Delaware Performance Appraisal System and Delaware Teacher Growth and Support System beginning in the 2025-2026 school year before implementing it statewide. The revised student improvement component must consider factors such as student absences, mobility, and noncompliance that may adversely affect a students performance. During the 2026-2027 academic year, the pilot program will expand, allowing for further refinement of implementation and support structures. Participants in the pilot program will be held harmless, so that the revised student improvement component will not factor into overall ratings. The program will be implemented statewide in 2027-2028 for all licensed and certified educators. | Passed |
| SB174 | An Act To Amend Title 11 And Title 16 Of The Delaware Code Relating To An Animal Abuse Offender List. | This Act establishes an animal abuse offender list which will be maintained by the Office of Animal Welfare. The list will be available to the public on the Office of Animal Welfares website. The list will contain information regarding adult individuals who are convicted of an animal abuse offense to assist the public and animal agencies in identifying individuals who present a risk to animal welfare. This Act prohibits animal shelters from approving pet adoptions to individuals who are on the animal abuse offender list. | Passed |
| HB171 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Elective Credit For Volunteering With Local Fire Departments. | This Act updates the Delaware Volunteerism Act to specify that high school students may complete their community service with local fire departments to obtain up to 1 elective credit. It also requires schools to notify students of the opportunity to earn elective credit through volunteer work at or before the time students select their classes. | Passed |
| HB160 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Related To Delaware National Guard Education Benefits. | The Delaware National Guard provides financial assistance to eligible service members for certain postsecondary education tuition and fees. Under the current education benefits program, the Delaware National Guard reimburses service members for tuition and fees the service members have already paid. But young service members often cannot take advantage of this program because they cannot afford to pay upfront for tuition and fees. This also hurts Delaware National Guard recruiting efforts because potential service members may choose to join National Guard programs in other states that do not require service members to pay upfront for tuition and fees. Keeping the Delaware National Guard fully staffed is essential to responding to state emergencies. Lack of staff also leads the Department of Defense to shift positions from the Delaware National Guard to other states that can recruit at higher levels than Delaware. This results in reduced mission capability in Delaware and less federal funding coming to Delaware. | Passed |
| SB156 | An Act To Amend Title 6 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Medical Debt Protection Act. | This Act is a substitute for Senate Bill No. 156. Like Senate Bill No. 156, this Substitute prohibits the reporting of medical debt to consumer reporting agencies and prohibits any medical debt from being included on a consumer report. Since 2023, at least 9 other states have passed laws that prohibit or restrict the reporting of medical debt on credit reports, including California, New Jersy, and Virginia. This Act differs from Senate Bill No. 156 in that it (1) adds language to the purpose section of the statute making it clear that the intent of the chapter is for medical debt not to be used in credit, employment, or housing decisions; (2) removes the proposed definition of medical debt information and instead adds a definition of medical debt; and (3) removes the proposed prohibition language on using a credit report containing medical debt information from being used when making decisions regarding someones credit, employment, or housing. | Passed |
| SB107 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Interstate Compact For School Psychologists. | This Act enacts the Interstate Compact for School Psychologists (Compact), which is designed to facilitate the interstate practice of school psychology in educational settings. School-based mental health services are in high demand in Delaware, but workforce shortages can make it difficult to meet that demand. By creating an additional licensing pathway for school psychologists to obtain equivalent licenses to practice school psychology in any state that is a member of the Compact, the Act aims to increase the availability of school psychological services for students in this State. | Passed |
| SB118 | An Act To Amend Chapter 472, Volume 83 Of The Laws Of Delaware Relating To Civil Actions For Tortious Injuries, Including Death, To Lawfully Owned Pets. | In the 151st General Assembly, SS1 to SB 258 was passed, which permitted pet owners to pursue compensatory damages without limitation for veterinary bills incurred to care for a pet that was injured by the negligence, reckless, or intentional acts of another individual or that individual's pet. This act removes a sunset provision that would have these changes expire on October 14, 2025. | Passed |
| SB143 | An Act To Amend Title 12 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Fiduciary Access To Digital Assets And Digital Accounts. | Ohio recently adopted Bradens Law, named after Braden Markus. Braden, a high school student, tragically took his own life after being coerced into sharing sensitive photographs online and then threatened with release of the photographs on social media if he did not pay money. Bradens parents, Jenn and Jarod, endured months of anguish after being denied access to Bradens personal cell phone records. In response, part of Bradens Law requires courts to adjudicate a parent or legal guardians request for an order directing access to a deceased minors digital assets and digital accounts within 30 days. | Passed |

| HB15 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Play-based Learning In Early Childhood Education. | Like House Bill No. 15, this Act permits early childhood educators in the public schools to use and encourage play-based learning in their classrooms and in their curriculum. This Act permits local education agencies to provide early childhood professional development in play-based learning, which may include professional development programs developed by the Department of Education. This Act also permits the Department to promulgate regulations for purposes of implementing this Act. | Passed |
| HB21 | An Act To Amend Title 16 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Tianeptine. | This Act bans the sale of Tianeptine in the State by identifying it as a Schedule I controlled substance. Tianeptine, also known as gas station heroin, is an antidepressant drug that is not approved by the FDA and is being sold as a dietary supplement in gas stations and other shops. This Act requires approval by a two-thirds vote because the statutory change will result in the expansion of an existing misdemeanor. | Passed |
| HB71 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Relating To Interscholastic Athletics. | This Act requires the Delaware Interscholastic Athletic Association to promulgate regulations requiring all coaches to have CPR, first aid, and automated external defibrillator (AED) training. It also requires schools with an athletic program or department to have an Emergency Action Plan for responding to a cardiac arrest event at an athletic event or practice. It requires that an AED be accessible in a clearly marked, unlocked location at any athletic event or venue. Finally, the regulations must require testing and maintenance of AEDs and notification to the Office of Emergency Medical Services regarding the AED acquisition and its location. | Passed |
| HB77 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Training For School Boards. | This Act requires that members of school boards, including charter school boards, receive training on all of the following: | Passed |
| HB82 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To School Board Members. | This Act requires that a school board candidate and member be an inhabitant of the district, or designated portion of a district, that member represents. Inhabitant is defined for this purpose as a person who both claims legal residence and physically resides in a designated area or school district. Further, the bill provides that if a school board member is not physically present in their district for more than 75% of the days in any yearlong period of that members term, the member ceases to qualify as an inhabitant. Absence required by military service is not counted as absence for purposes of this statute. This Act provides that a resident of a school district may bring an action in Superior Court asking the Court to declare a vacancy if the resident has cause to believe a member is no longer an inhabitant of that members district. | Signed/Enacted/Adopted |
| HB91 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To School Meals. | This Substitute to HB 91 differs from HB 91 in that it further expands free breakfasts in schools participating in the federal School Breakfast Program by making them available to all students, regardless of household income, but does not expand free lunch income eligibility. | Passed |
| SB91 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Title Ix. | This Act requires schools that receive federal funding ensure students, staff, and faculty are protected from sex-based discrimination and sex-based harassment. The Act further requires schools to communicate to students, through their website, the existence of Title IX administrators as required by federal law. The Act requires the schools website provide information explaining the roles and duties of Title IX administrators, how to contact the appropriate Title IX administrator, and the schools Title IX policy. The Act ensures that students have access to the appropriate forms to start a complaint and access to the FAQ link provided by U.S. Office of Civil Rights. The Act instructs the school to provide an explanation and examples of possible supportive measures for students who experience sex-based discrimination or sex-based harassment. | Passed |
| HB50 | An Act To Amend Titles 7 And 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Energy Assistance. | This House Substitute No. 1 for House Bill No. 50 creates the Delaware Energy Fund to provide assistance to consumers whose household income is less than 350% of the federal poverty level. Under 2025 federal guidelines, 350% of the federal poverty level for a single person is $54,775 and for a family of four is $112,525. The Delaware Energy Fund will be administered by the SEU and recipients of assistance from the fund will also be required to participate in energy savings and efficiency programs. Only one assistance payment may be made per application. | Passed |
| SB81 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Teacher Salaries. | This Act removes the time restriction that only allowed for certain teachers or specialists who were hired after August 9, 2023, to obtain additional experience credit for purposes of salary computation. This Act would allow for teachers or specialists hired before August 9, 2023, to qualify for the same experience credit for purposes of salary computation. | Passed |
| SB102 | An Act To Amend Title 24 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Board Of Electrical Examiners. | This Act would limit the opportunity to remain as a licensed apprentice electrician after an individual has already completed an apprentice program approved by the Board of Electrical Examiners. | Passed |
| HB97 | An Act To Amend Titles 14 And 31 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Department Of Education, Professional Standards, And Salary Supplements. | This Act ensures that a public school employee may not work directly with students unsupervised without a valid permit or license issued by the DOEs Professional Standards Boards or an approved license issued under Title 24. To that end, this Act creates a new permit requirement for any paraprofessional or student support and classroom position, including specialist interns, year-long residents, full time substitute teachers, substitute teachers seeking certification, student teachers, and classroom aides. The following employees are exempt from the permitting and licensing requirements: non-instructional administrators; nutrition staff; custodial staff; transportation staff; clerical staff; charter school heads exempt under § 507(c) of Title 14; and substitute teachers seriving for less than 12 consecutive weeks in a school. | Passed |
| SB90 | An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Delaware State Inspire Scholarship Program. | The Delaware State Inspire Scholarship Program (Inspire scholarship) pays undergraduate tuition for 8 semesters at Delaware State University (DSU). Some students complete their undergraduate degrees in less than 8 semesters because they take heavier than average course loads each semester or because they earned college credits during high school. This Act aims to reward students for their hard work and provide additional access and opportunity for them to continue their higher education by allowing students to use the Inspire scholarship program towards additional levels of higher education if the student obtains their undergraduate degree before using all 8 semesters of eligibility. | Passed |
| HB26 | An Act To Amend Title 21 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Number Plates. | This Act makes it unlawful to possess, operate any motor vehicle with, purchase, install, manufacture, sell, offer to sell, or otherwise distribute a number plate flipping device.

| SB59 | An Act To Amend Title 26 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Public Utilities And Utility Rates. | Public utilities are regulated monopolies. Practically speaking, a public utility has no competition in its service territory and, therefore, does not face the economic risks that a for-profit, non-utility company must face. By law, a public utility is authorized the opportunity to earn a reasonable rate of return on the costs it incurs in operating its business. | Passed |

| SB56 | An Act To Amend Title 25 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Manufactured Home Title Transfers. | This Act updates the procedures governing the transfer of a manufactured home located in a manufactured home community in order to provide a clearer process and reduce ambiguities that allowed some community owners to prevent the transfer of a lease or a home as well as prevent family members from inheriting the investment made by a deceased family member in a home. | Passed |

| HB85 | An Act To Amend Title 14 And Title 31 Of The Delaware Code Relating To School Board Members. | Under current law, both school board members who are elected and those who are appointed to fill vacancies until the next election are required to complete a background check. However, the statute is currently unclear as to how a background check gets done and who is responsible for reviewing the background check for an appointment. This Act makes clear that a person may not be appointed unless a background check has been completed and the Commissioner of Elections has determined the person is qualified for the seat, in the same manner the Commissioner completes that duty for candidates for school board elections. | Passed |

| SB193 | An Act To Amend Titles 19 And Title 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Craft Training Requirements In Public Works Contracts. | Apprenticeship and workplace-based training are earn while you learn systems that offer young people the chance to learn from the best trained construction workers in Delaware. Skilled craft apprenticeship programs offer the necessary capacities, resources, and flexibility needed to help low-income, minority, and female workers achieve and retain construction careers, while simultaneously assisting local construction employers obtain the skilled workforce they need to help drive growth in their local labor markets. This bill removes the buy-out for contractors to avoid participating in apprentice programs by paying into the Apprenticeship and Training Fund created in 2021. This buy-out benefits bad actors or those businesses only coming into Delaware to work on state taxpayer-funded projects whereas most Delaware merit shops and 100 percent of union shops have apprentice and training programs. The buy out also incentivizes contractors or never create training because the maximum cost of the buy-out is less than the cost to operate, fund, or participate in an apprentice program. | In Committee |
| SB192 | An Act To Amend Title 26 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Public Utilities. | This Act imposes certain requirements upon a public utility if it intends to relocate a call center outside the service territory of the public utility or contract call center work outside of the service territory of the public utility.

| HB214 | An Act To Amend Title 16 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Interagency Committee On Autism And The Delaware Network For Excellence In Autism. | This Act removes the Director of Autism Resources ("Autism Resources"), formerly the "Statewide Director of the Delaware Autism Program," as a member of the Interagency Autism Committee ("ICA").

| HB63 | An Act To Amend Title 16 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Fireworks. | Delaware's current fireworks laws have led to confusion among consumers and noncompliance, with individuals frequently using fireworks outside of legally permitted days. Many consumers are unaware they are breaking the law, while those who knowingly violate it face fines too low to serve as a deterrent. This results in ongoing nuisances for neighbors, increased risks of bodily harm, and heightened dangers of fires and property damage. Additionally, out-of-state retailers advertise illegal fireworks in Delaware without consequence, further misleading consumers. The absence of a registration process for fireworks retailers limits the State Fire Marshals ability to oversee the sale and distribution of these potentially hazardous products. This bill strengthens enforcement by increasing fines, regulating sales through a permit system, ensuring consumer awareness through required safety information, and generating revenue for the Fire Marshals office to improve oversight and public education. | In Committee |

Licensed dealers that provide background checks to facilitate a sale between unlicensed persons are also responsible for providing a copy of the Firearm Responsibilities Notice to the prospective buyer and retaining a copy of the Firearm Responsibilities Notice signed by the prospective buyer. The purpose of the Firearm Responsibilities Notice is to deter straw purchases and other illegal transfer of firearms, to ensure awareness of Delawares gun safety laws, and to increase the reporting of lost or stolen firearms.
