RECOGNIZING MAY 13, 2026, AS DELAWARE LOCAL GOVERNMENT DAY IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE.

This bill designates May 13, 2026, as Delaware Local Government Day to honor the state's local government workers. It directly affects municipal employees, officials, and organizations across Delaware by establishing an official date for recognition.
