Delaware Has HUGE Hole in Budget Since 2024, As Companies Leave America’s First State, Cutting Overall Revenue
Dear Friends,
As almost 50 companies have left Delaware since 2024, the state has a huge hole to fill folks, as America’s First State brings in less revenue as fewer companies are adding to the state’s taxes and calling this their home.
Companies are leaving Delaware faster and your Coastal Network is keeping track. This follows large companies including Elon Musk’s Tesla and Phil Shawe’s Transperfect. Both have had long legal battles in our corrupt Chancery Court as other companies look at the recent track record of companies leaving and find reasons to leave.

Respectfully Yours,
