Today, we held a COVID-19 testing event in Rehoboth Beach. Results of that event should help us determine infection rates in our coastal communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

You’re required to wear a mask in public settings. Keep your distance from those outside your household. These are common sense steps that, frankly, are not that difficult to follow. And they’re a small price to pay for keeping our friends and relatives out of the hospital. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

Too many Delawareans and visitors are not following basic public health precautions. We’ve heard and seen concerns especially in our beach communities, in restaurants, in gyms, and at sporting events. Now’s not the time to let up. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

We intend to make a decision early next week regarding the start of Phase 3. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

I know many Delawareans expected us to move into Phase 3 on Monday, June 29 – and that had been my hope, as well. B… https://t.co/Ibvd4EpN6w — PolitiTweet.org

I know law enforcement in Delaware. The vast majority of officers here and across our country serve for the right reasons – to protect and strengthen their communities. They want meaningful change. Let’s keep working together to move forward. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

I know that the General Assembly will build on these steps, and I thank legislators for their partnership. Thank you to Colonel McQueen and the law enforcement officers of the Delaware State Police for their leadership on this important issue. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

Talk is cheap. It’s on us to make progress. As I said last week, these are first steps that we can take administratively to improve the relationship between law enforcement agencies and communities of color in Delaware.

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

The capital budget makes investments in infrastructure statewide – in school construction, road and bridge improvements, and farmland preservation. Those investments will strengthen our economy and our communities. Let’s move forward. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

The grants-in-aid bill provides critical funding for fire companies, senior service organizations, and other critical service providers that Delaware families rely on every day. They deserve our support, especially during this uncertain time. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

We should continue to act responsibly. Let’s get the other budget bills done. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

We will also continue investments to support students and educators statewide through our Opportunity Funding program. This program supports students living in poverty, and students who are still learning English. I can’t think of a more important investment in Delaware’s future. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

We are not laying off state employees, or cutting their benefits. State workers have been on the front lines of this crisis, and we owe them our gratitude. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

This FY 2021 budget protects critical investments in public education and the jobs and livelihoods of Delaware’s state workers. That’s because we responsibly set aside surplus revenue into savings during good times. https://t.co/8uSEcENAxY — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

Travel may look a little different this year, but if you plan ahead, you will still enjoy your visit to DE. Wear a face covering. Wash your hands. Practice social distancing. If you’re sick, stay home. https://t.co/9IGY9gGpzw — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

We can all help stop the spread of COVID-19 in our state while enjoying Delaware’s favorite attractions if we follow public health guidance and act responsibly with a sense of community. Check out @DelawareTourism's Go-To Guide for travel: https://t.co/85DXAkFkJd — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

My priorities for the budget have been consistent. Despite significant revenue challenges due to the COVID-19 crisis, we intended to protect critical investments in public education, and protect the jobs and livelihoods of Delaware’s state workers. This budget will do just that. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

This has been a difficult several months for Delaware, to be sure. Thank you members of the General Assembly – and especially members of the Joint Finance Committee – for their work under challenging circumstances to pass a responsible, balanced budget. ℹ️https://t.co/Spx0bubC7p https://t.co/Hq2l3ZGBm8 — PolitiTweet.org

The bottom line is: we don’t want to go backwards. We are most concerned about folks not observing social distancing practices, and not wearing face coverings. Be respectful. Be safe. Think about your neighbor. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

3️⃣ Make sure you get tested, especially if you think you may have been exposed to someone positive for COVID-19 or if you are in a large group. For a full list of testing sites: https://t.co/9SMSVpWuow — PolitiTweet.org

2️⃣ Keep your six foot distance from those outside your household, recognizing that you could catch the virus from anyone or you could be an asymptotic carrier. https://t.co/yjlv0w656V — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

1️⃣ Wear a mask when you are in public. When you wear a mask, you show that you are concerned about your neighbor, that you’re concerned about the community health, and you want our economy to be strong. https://t.co/kRQONHGNxu — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

We need everyone to act with a sense of responsibility, community, and awareness of the fact that your actions affect your neighbor. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

Molly is a proven leader, a problem solver, and the right choice to serve as our next Secretary of the Department of Health and Social Services. As we continue to fight COVID-19, I’m confident Molly will be able to lead this department without missing a beat. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor John Carney @JohnCarneyDE

Congratulations to Molly Magarik on her confirmation to serve as the next Secretary of @Delaware_DHSS, as well as the distinguished Delawareans who were confirmed by the Senate today to serve on our world-class judiciary. ℹ️ https://t.co/cTKkwy384G https://t.co/BsrL9OO4BI — PolitiTweet.org
