Every other year we publish a very popular resource—the Legislative Roster. While the name and content is largely about the Delaware General Assembly and the members of the House and Senate, the guide is more than that. Inside you will find information about our representatives in the U.S. Congress, county officials, members of Delaware’s judiciary, legislative district maps, seating charts, voter registration data, and more. This year we added social media handles so you’ll be able to connect, follow, and communicate more easily with policymakers.
However, the coolest wrinkle to this year’s roster won’t be found in the physical booklet. We have an mobile app version of the same roster with even more functionality than the paperback version! Here you can keep notes, interact with the legislative districts, sort by political party, directly email or call legislators or staff, and much, much more! While it’s obvious, it’s worth stating; the app also has the ability to be updated regularly as people come and go, phone numbers or email addresses change, and more.
As we continue to find ways of connecting our business members to policy leaders around the state, we’re very excited to bring you both the paper version of the roster, and now a mobile app too.

Access to the app version of the roster is given after a purchase is made

The economic calendar is light, but significant this week. On Tuesday we’ll see existing home sales results from February, while we await Wednesday’s afternoon news from the Federal Reserve about a likely quarter point raise in interest rates. Thursday brings us more jobs data and new home sales from February. We wrap up the week on Friday with February results for durable goods sales.
Foot Locker starts us off this week with an earnings call, followed on Tuesday by Nike, Canadian Solar, GameStop, and Tencent Music. Wednesday calls include Chewy, Winnebago, and Steelcase. Darden Restaurants, Accenture, and General Mills round out a light week of calls.
