Now That Delaware Lawmakers Passed Senate Bill SB21, What’s Next For Companies in America’s First State?
Dear Friends,
There is no doubt for the purposes of the State of Delaware, indeed to maintain corporate dominance and to encourage major companies from fleeing the First State, Senate Bill 21 is a positive beginning.
Furthermore, in my view, Tycoons like Elon Musk and Philip Shawe, who have clearly been abused by Delaware’s Chancery Court, would now be granted safe haven to operate their companies.
That reality, of course, is fuel for the opposition. There is no doubt that big political money came pouring into Delaware to achieve this seemingly new beginning for Delaware’s protection.
Several influential leaders on both sides of the Delaware Legislative Isle have indicated to me it is now necessary to get rid of those who caused these problems in Delaware’s Chancery Court.
Yours truly is taking a slight victory lap, as my publications have helped inspire some of these legislative actions.
Let’s see what develops in Delaware from here forward. As always, your feedback is welcome and appreciated.
