The United States locks up more of its people that any other nation. We have almost 5 percent of the world’s population, but 23 percent of the world’s prisoners. Delaware imprisons at a rate even higher than the extreme U.S. average—a rate that is 81 percent higher than New Jersey’s. Most people’s journey into the criminal justice system begins with police interaction. Ending the era of mass incarceration means dismantling the approaches that came to define criminal justice in the 1980s, including practices by police officers/departments and the systems that fail to oversee and hold them accountable. Why focus on General Assembly candidates? General Assembly members are democratically elected to decide the laws by which the citizens are governed. They have a difficult and important job, and have a great deal of responsibility for the current state of all State and local police departments. Our Platform Fairness, Transparency and Accountability The next General Assembly members must recognize that trust is difficult for many community members to have in law enforcement. Restoring and sustaining trust can only be attained by allowing the public to know about the results of investigations into police misconduct and the outcomes. Without transparency in the process, the public may remain suspicious that officers are not held accountable for their actions. Transparency benefits law enforcement as well by demonstrating when officers acted appropriately. ● Collect and make public police data Too little information about police departments and officers is made public. This lack of transparency prevents the community from knowing what decisions are being made or the outcomes of those decisions. Fully transparent practices and outcomes improve decision- making, allow the public to hold the General Assembly and police accountable, and enable the public to push for change in the future. Our lawmakers must commit to tracking and publishing details and statistics about police misconduct, arrests, stops and use of force, including disparities that these activities may produce. ● Implement body-worn cameras Body-worn cameras may result in better transparency and accountable,

  • ACTION REQUESTED on Tuesday, May 30, 2017, the Delaware Joint Finance Committee
    Rehoboth Beach-Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Center P. O. Box 216 *501 Rehoboth Avenue, Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971 - 302-227-2233 *800-441-1329 *Hotline 302-227-6446 *Fax 302-227-8351 - [email protected] *www.beach-fun.com TIME SENSITIVE – ACTION REQUESTED On Tuesday, May 30, 2017, the Delaware Joint Finance Committee (JFC) voted to eliminate the current 1% allocated funding to all State Convention & Visitor Bureaus (CVB’s), which is currently a portion of the 8% lodging tax collected by hotels and motels Statewide. This would also terminate the portion of the same 1% which is currently distributed to all Chambers of Commerce in Sussex County. The allocation to Chambers in Sussex is tied to stringent requirements with regard to marketing expenditures and recorded proof of return on investment. On Wednesday, May 31, 2017, the Rehoboth Beach Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce (RBDBCC) Legislative Representative, Mark Lally, as well as several of our tourism partners and Carol Everhart, met at Legislative Hall in the hope that there would be an opportunity to address the JFC. The operating procedure in place did not allow that opportunity. Below you will find a list of the current JFC members. We are seeking your assistance in personally contacting members of the JFC and/or your legislators by phone or in person to seek their support. We did not provide e-mails, as legislators are more receptive to personal contact. If 7 of the 12 member JFC vote in favor, the 1% could be placed back into the budget. The loss of this allocated revenue would, at a minimum, deplete or severely cut the marketing ability for Sussex Chambers, and in some cases, could put them out of business.
