  • Delaware Agricultural Statistics Service, for His Hard Work in Designing, Implementing, Evaluating This Study and Preparing It for Publication
    Dear Friend of Delaware Agriculture: I am very pleased and proud to present the results of the 2004 Delaware Equine Study, the first ever comprehensive study of this important segment of our agricultural industry. I want to thank Governor Ruth Ann Minner, the Delaware General Assembly, the racing commissions, and the Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund for providing the funding for this project. I also want to thank the Delaware Equine Council for their help and each and every person who voluntarily participated in this very important study. As clearly shown by the numbers contained within this report, the equine industry’s importance to Delaware’s economy is significant and growing. In addition to the expenditures Delaware equine owners and operations make into the state economy, our racetracks, equine show and competition facilities, breeding, training, and boarding operations attract thousands from outside of Delaware who also expend significantly into our state economy. Not only does the industry directly provide jobs for thousands of Delawareans, but also indirectly through expenditures made for feed and bedding, veterinarian services, equipment, grooming and tack supplies, maintenance and repair and other sectors of the industry’s infrastructure. Equine and equine operations make significant contributions to the quality of life in Delaware by keeping land in open space, and providing a wide diversity of recreational activities available to the general public. As spectators or participants, countless Delawareans enjoy equine racing, shows and competitions, pony rides, trail and pleasure riding, and much more. For many, the view of Delaware from atop a horse is the best one. I know firsthand how important equines are and have been socially and recreationally to my family and to the quality of life of many others in Delaware.

    GOVERNORS The National Mood and the Seats in Play: Understanding the 2016 Gubernatorial Elections By Jennifer M. Jensen and Thad Beyle With a national anti-establishment mood and 12 gubernatorial elections—eight in states with a Democrat as sitting governor—the Republicans were optimistic that they would strengthen their hand as they headed into the November elections. Republicans already held 31 governor- ships to the Democrats’ 18—Alaska Gov. Bill Walker is an Independent—and with about half the gubernatorial elections considered competitive, Republicans had the potential to increase their control to 36 governors’ mansions. For their part, Democrats had a realistic chance to convert only a couple of Republican governorships to their party. Given the party’s win-loss potential, Republicans were optimistic, in a good position.

  • DELAWARE CANCER CONSORTIUM Imagine
    Imagine what we can accomplish now. The Next Five-Year Plan, 2017–2021 October 2017 DELAWARE CANCER CONSORTIUM Imagine Imagine what we can accomplish now. My fellow Delawareans, In 2001, Governor Ruth Ann Minner signed a resolution to create the Delaware Advisory Council on Cancer Incidence and Mortality. That initiative became the Delaware Cancer Consortium. At the time, serving as lieutenant governor, I took a personal interest in making the work of the Consortium successful. Then, as now, the volunteers who made the changes possible became invested in all we wanted to achieve. Through the years, we have seen remarkable progress. When we began our journey, we were among the states with the highest incidence and mortality rates. Today, our cancer mortality rates continue to fall annually. In the 1990s, we were ranked second in the nation for all-site cancer mortality, and today we are ranked 16th. We are saving lives, renewing hope for those with cancer, and lessening the economic impact that this disease has on our state. Much of our success is due to our state’s dedicated, tireless efforts to boost early detection, and now we have some of the highest cancer screening rates in the country. We’ve become a national model for colorectal cancer screening programs. We’re making progress on the diversity side, getting African Americans screened for colon cancer at rates similar to Caucasians. Our screening rates for mammograms are higher than the national average. We’re preventing more of our young adults from starting to use tobacco. In fact, our rate for adult tobacco use is also below national averages.
