General Assembly Back in Session

Issue 5.10

March 8, 2019

Message from the President

Like most of you, I’ve owned a lot of cars over the years. From my very first (a used 1971 Chevrolet Monte Carlo), to the very practical minivan when the kids were, well, kids (a Dodge Grand Caravan). Scattered in between, I’ve owned two pickup trucks, a couple “too much fun” sports cars, and even my favorite ride today, a Triumph Thunderbird motorcycle. So it was with great interest I read a story on CNBC about trends in vehicle purchases and financing.

Legislative Priority

The General Assembly was back in session this week, returning from the Joint Finance Committee. This week in Dover, we saw two bills related to taxes tabled in committee. The first proposed a reduction to the realty transfer tax by 1% and the second would have allowed for itemized deductions in Delaware. Both are on hold for now.
