Our Mission
FightDECorruption.com is a non-partisan organization of Delaware citizens who agree on the need to build honesty and trust in government. Our mission is to research and publicize conflicts of interest and self-dealing by Delaware officials.
Our current focus is the Route 9 Corridor of Corruption connecting New Castle with Delaware City. We’ve established a local chapter in New Castle and are working with people in Delaware City advocating to reverse the illegal sale of the 128-acre Grassdale parcel of Fort Dupont State Park.
Despite frequent media reports of public corruption, no official action is taken. Much Delaware corruption is hiding in plain sight and is broadly tolerated by the political and media establishments. In depth research and advocacy journalism are needed to educate the public.
Fighting corruption is the third rail of legislative advocacy. Across the nation ethics oversight is often achieved through ballot initiatives and referendums because state legislatures resist reform. We don’t have that option in Delaware, and a citizen organization is needed to advocate for reform in the press and in the court of public opinion.
FightDECorruption.com compiles comprehensive online “profiles” documenting public corruption with articles, links, data, and documents. Our “profiles” will be distributed and amplified by blog posts, mainstream media, Op Eds, Letters to the Editor, email blasts and petitions along with digital advertising.
Many of our communications will “Call for an Inquiry” by legislative ethics committees, DOJ Division of Civil Rights & Public Trust, and the Public Integrity Commission (PIC). These “Calls for an Inquiry” will be asking for an official investigation to gather facts and determine whether public office was abused. We will be asking these authorities to do their jobs.
These anti-corruption campaigns will hopefully generate support for an Inspector General bill to be passed by the Delaware General Assembly.
