<div dir="ltr">Great advocacy work, Ginger. You are a role model. I would like to contact my Congressman and Senators, too (or should it only go to my MD state senator and representatives in Annapolis?).

The bill was passed unanimously. I have sent the bill to my state Senator, Sarah Elfreth, who is interested reaching out to Delaware. <br>
If all of our state senators and delegates to be introduced to Delaware’s new bill maybe MD legislation could be passed, toward correcting our pretty overwhelming challenge to invasives.<br>
