Delaware lawmakers to hold food drives in Glasgow, Milford after food shipments halted
Protest against Trump administration held on Main Street in Newark
About 300 people took to Main Street in Newark on March 8, 2025, to protest Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
Delaware lawmakers will hold donation drives in Glasgow and Milford to support the Food Bank of Delaware after the nonprofit’s food deliveries were canceled by President Donald Trump.
The Trump administration halted food aid shipments and funding earlier this month, resulting in a roughly 900,000 meal shortage for the Delaware food bank. The federal government’s actions have resulted in food banks across the country scrambling to make up for the shortfalls.
In February alone, more than 50% of the food distributed by the Food Bank of Delaware came from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Emergency Food Assistance Program, which supplies essential items to food banks across the country.
Delaware Democratic legislators are hosting two donation drives to raise awareness of the recent cuts:
- House Democrats will a food drive from 6 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 1, at the Food Bank of Delaware’s Glasgow location at 222 Lake Drive.
- State senators will hold a similar donation drive at the food bank’s Milford location from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, April 3, at 102 Delaware Veterans Blvd.
Rep. Eric Morrison, who is organizing the event, said he’s a regular volunteer at the food bank and has seen the increased demand for the nonprofit’s services.
“Without the regular support from the USDA that they rely on, the Food Bank will not be able to feed all of the Delawareans in need,” he said in a news release Friday. “Now is the time that we must band together and do what we can to assist the Food Bank and our neighbors in need.”
Delaware legislators are inviting residents to take part in the food drive by donating to the Food Bank. Most-needed items include: hot and cold cereals, peanut butter, canned fruits and vegetables, canned meats, rice and pasta.

Save the embarrassment. These expungement clinics may help with clearing a Delaware record
Speed enforcement camera now active near Lewes
It’s located at Pondview Drive on southbound Coastal Highway.
A criminal history, even one stemming from a juvenile arrest or a minor driving violation, can be a lifelong barrier to opportunity for many Delawareans. Whether or not a conviction occurred, a record can follow a person for years, showing up in background checks run by employers, landlords and loan officers.
An expungement offers a way to break that cycle. The legal process removes police and court records from public databases, allowing former defendants to move forward without being required to disclose past arrests or charges.
To help people navigate that process, several Delaware lawmakers and state agencies are hosting free expungement clinics this fall, offering one-on-one legal counseling to help eligible residents clear their records and reclaim new opportunities.
3 events planned across Delaware
Before the year ends, Delaware residents will have three opportunities to attend an expungement clinic where free, individual legal counseling will be available.
The events are organized in collaboration with the Office of Defense Services, the Delaware Criminal Justice Information System, or DELJIS, and the Delaware Department of Labor’s Advancement through Pardons and Expungement APEX Program. The Office of the Marijuana Commissioner has joined as a new sponsor this year and is contributing up to $5,000 to help cover expungement-related fees.
The sessions are open to individuals with Delaware criminal records. Services are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, and advance registration is required.
Where and how to attend
The Middletown Expungement Clinic will be held from 2 to 5 p.m. Oct. 29 at the Whitehall Recreational Center in Sen. Nicole Poore’s district. Registration is available at bit.ly/48gnKto.
The Smyrna Expungement Clinic will take place from 2 to 5 p.m. Nov. 6 at the Duck Creek Regional Library in Sen. Kyra Hoffner’s district. Registration is available at bit.ly/3KaHOn3.
In Sussex County, the Office of Defense Services will host the Life Church Expungement Clinic from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Nov. 18 at The Life Church in Laurel. Registration is available at forms.gle/bACj1h1xouk452oz8. For more information, contact Maria Clark at the Office of Defense Services at 302-688-4560.
Organizers say the goal of these clinics is to help Delaware residents overcome the lasting effects of old criminal records and move toward greater economic and personal stability. They said, by removing barriers to employment and housing, expungements can help people reenter the workforce, support their families and participate fully in their communities.
